In addition, he has also written a soon to be published book on the Interface of the Mind and Soul in Halacha.

Rabbi Einhorn achieved critical acclaim with his dynamic “Simcha Seminar”. The seminar is a multimedia experience that deftly weaves humor, spirituality, and self-help ideals in a 3 part series. Rabbi Einhorn has delivered this seminar in many cities across the country. Rabbi Einhorn is also the author of 2 books; a commentary on the Pesach Haggadah and a commentary on Megilat Esther. Perhaps his source of most pride, though, is his lovely wife Shira and their three beautiful children Yisrael, Estee, and Ariella.
