The Et Lirchock Project
A Pamphlet By Women, For Women
Designed to provide assistance in dealing with
the emotional aspects of keeping Taharat Hamishpachah
The Et Lirchok pamphlet addresses aspects of keeping taharat hamishpacha that seem to be difficult for many women, suggesting possible solutions and methods of alleviating these difficulties. It is our hope that for women who do suffer from these difficulties, the practical advice we can offer, in addition to the knowledge that they are not alone, will help them to successfully deal with these challenges.

As with all other content on Mayim Rabim, its inclusion does not indicate a blanket endorsement of all ideas contained therein by Mayim Rabim, its administrators, or its authors.
