We carry many old fear-based beliefs and perspectives that affect our relationship with G-d and the High Holidays. Beliefs and narratives that G-d is all about judgment, reward, and punishment prevent us from accessing the unconditional love and compassion available to us. Only by challenging and releasing the old narratives, beliefs, and perspecti…

We are often the greatest self-critics. A Chassidic saying states, "More than the negativity of sin/mistake is the sadness and self-loathing that follows." In this class, we will explore the auspicious month of Elul, which helps us mend the perception of duality by recognizing that the Creator is found within all aspects of ourselves. In the Song o…

Elul is a time of reflection and introspection when we examine who we are and who we are becoming. The Alter Rebbe famously said that during the month of Elul, "the King is in the field." This is a reference to the potential of the month of Elul. During this month, the King—Hashem—is in the field and is more accessible than ever. In Shulchan, it sa…

In this teaching we explore the profound Torah of the B'Nai Ysaschar, Rav Tzadok Ha'Cohen of Lublin and the Lubavitcher Rebbe for a deep understanding of the transaction of the months of Tammuz and Av to the auspicious month of Elul.

The 15th day of the month of Av stands out as one of the year's most potent days. According to the Talmud, Israel has seen no greater days than the 15th of Av and Yom Kippur.

What is the difference between Destiny and Fate? Many of us think we know what these words mean. What is the actual definition and difference between the two?

This powerful class discusses how to contend with our inner and outer darkness. The darkness we see in the world mirrors our inner darkness, yet we have the key to transmuting it into light, and it's called Rachamim- compassion. We know that the week's energy is encoded in the week's Torah portion. In the Torah portion of the week (July 19th), Bala…

One of the main pillars of life is the recognition that we can always start again. The great Chassidic masters said that even if someone commits the worst sins, they can and need to start again. What prevents us from starting again is the lack of belief in ourselves and in the Creator's infinite love and compassion. While we are so harsh, shameful,…

The story of the spies, found in this week's Torah portion Shelach (Numbers 13-14), involves twelve leaders, one from each tribe of Israel, who were sent by Moses to scout the Promised Land of Canaan.

What is the secret of the Jewish spirit? Despite persecution throughout world history, the Jews survived the mightiest empires.

The Menorah is a symbol of the Jewish people. Beyond its …

What is the Kabbalistic essence of the month of Sivan? It is about instilling presence within contradictions. The Torah says, regarding the month of Sivan, "They (the Israelites) encamped around the mountain."

What is holiness? The Ramban (Rabbi Moshe ben Nachman of Barcelona, Spain) says it means "removed from the mundane." In this week's Parsha Emor, we learn about the innate holiness found within the Kohen, which translates into a different level of responsibility they have towards the collective. In truth, all of us are called Kohanim. As the Torah s…

As we transition from the month of Nissan—Aries into Iyar Taurus, we transition into a different phase of consciousness, which is unique to Iyar and the month of May.

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.…

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 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.

The holy Zohar says that the 13 Attributes of mercy are compared to …

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, t…

In these trying times, we are facing unprecedented levels of attacks on Israel and Jews both physically and through unbiased reporting in the news and on social media.
