our story

HIGHER CORNERS lifts modern psychology, sociology, business, economics, and medicine out of the fear of the Divine and washes them in a spa of deep wisdom of the ancient mystical texts of Kabbalah and philosophy. 

Embedded in each episode lurks a Higher Corner, where the mind and heart slip into a comfortable corner where science and the natural world meet with spirit and soul. Join Rabbi Dov Ber Pinson as he “converses” along side scientists, thought leaders, and activists, from across the contemporary American spectrum.
