In our Parsha, Tzaria, we learn about the leper and the healing from leprosy.  Leprosy is a skin condition with a spiritual root. The Torah says that if a person suspects that they have leprosy, they must "come to the Kohen" and show him the white patches. The Kohen determines whether the person is an actual leper and quarantines him for seven days.  In our Inner Vibe class, we will delve into what leprosy is from the spiritual dimension and why is a lepor, called "Adam," the highest description of man? How does leprosy translate into our lives in 2024 in terms of healing our traumas ..read more

A profound class on the roots of shame and how we may heal it. Shame is something we all have. In fact, it is part of our human DNA and is stamped deeply into our psyche.

A deep dive into understanding life's journeys. As much as we do not yearn for or anticipate expansiveness/redemption, it is found within the challenge itself, and one of life's great lessons is this recognition. The Torah portion of Pekudai culminates the book of Shemot-Exodus. The book begins by recounting the children of Jacob's descent into Egypt or exile. Yet this recounting is described by our Sages as an ascent or redemption.  At the end of the book, the Torah lists the details of the Mishkan-the Tabernacle, with the final words being: "For over the Tabernacle a cloud of by day, an ..read more

The Zohar teaches that we are comprised of the spiritual higher self, which is called our "other half." We are also comprised of our lower ego-centric self. We are interested in uplifting the ego self by utilizing the power of choice and observation. This Shabbat is the first of four special Torah readings that spiritually prepare us for the holidays of Purim and Passover. The Zohar says that it corresponds to the four-letter name of G-d. This week, we read the additional Torah portion called Shekelaim, or the half-shekel coin. This half-shekel was collected as both a census and a donation to ..read more

In the Torah portion, Ki -Tissa, we learn about the sin of the golden calf in which Moshe rises in prayer to the Creator to atone for this grave sin. It says Hashem (G-d) teaches Moshe THE prayer to annul the negative decree and atone for the sin. It is the 13 Attributes of mercy. The holy Zohar says that the 13 Attributes of mercy are compared to the various colors of the 13 petals of the rose, where there is a transformation of the attribute of judgment to the attribute of mercy. We find that the Prophet Micah also reveals the 13 attributes in a different way in his assertion of divine mercy ..read more

What is the essence of joy? The holiday of Purim teaches us that there is a constant joy of self beyond our knowing and doing. This joy is interconnected with our inner child, whose birthright is joy. Purim Katan offers us to connect to the constant and subtle joy of being in the moment and harnassing the opportunity to live with an open mind and open heart throughout the year. This minor holiday is a major reminder for the entire year of the secret of continual joy. Since this year is a leap year on the Jewish calendar, we celebrate two months of Adar. The Talmud says that we celebrate Purim ..read more

The month of Adar is one of the most joyous and auspicious months on the calendar. This year, we are in a leap year and are celebrating two Adars or 60 days of Adar. When this happens (every 2-3 years), there is a special inherent potential that we can tap into. In a sense, we become nullified within these 60 days and its potential.The month of Adar teaches us about the power of miracles. Not miracles that are above nature, but rather miracles that are within nature. In this class, we explore the root of these two types of miracles and how to access the special energy of these 60 days. --- Sen ..read more

In this week's Parsha-Bo, Moshe is asked to approach Pharoah on his home turf. Moshe is frightened, and the Zohar says that Hashem tells him, "Come with me to Pharoah." Hashem walks Moshe into the fearsome face-to-face with the dark side. The Zohar gives a secondary interpretation that the Pharoah represents the source from which all lights stem, the Pharoah of holiness. According to this interpretation, Moshe was frightened to approach this source for fear of extinguishing his reality. Similarly, Hashem tells Moshe, "Come with me." Hashem walks Moshe, a soul within a body, to face his awesome ..read more

What is flow? It is the state of being where we are perfectly aligned with our purpose. Behavioral Psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi says that flow is the balance of when our challenges and capacities are conjoined to connect with our ecstatic state of being. Csikszentmihalyi says that the best moments in our lives are not the passive, receptive, relaxing times . . . The best moments usually occur if a person’s body or mind is stretched to its limits voluntarily to accomplish something difficult and worthwhile. On a spiritual level we align with G-d's will and our "I" becomes G-d's "I." The ..read more
