Desert Medicine: A Mystical Framework for Inner Healing
Manage episode 492000374 series 3579122
In this week’s episode of Underneath the Underneath, we explore Parshat Chukat as a mystical map of healing. Drawing from the figures of Moshe, Miriam, the Waters, the Snake, and the Staff, we uncover four archetypes of the healing journey: the guide, the midwife, the shadow, and the witness.
We ask what it means to feel another without getting enmeshed. We touch the grief that arises when the well dries up. We ask what it means to hold space beside the rock without forcing it open. We examine Moshe’s seeming bypass, the danger of urgency, and the sacred pause that invites water to flow. We look at the snake — not as threat, but as mirror. And we consider how power can be wielded not to strike, but to invite.
This class unfolded as a live mystical transmission — part teaching, part field-based listening — drawing from embodied presence, Torah, and the unseen.

Deepen with Ohmek:
Ohmek is a community of women and men pursuing deeper ways of being.
It is the space that holds all, yet remains empty, the void that allows healing and transformation to take place, take shape, belong, integrate and disperse.
It is an invitation inward, into a space and community, as well as one’s own inner world. A place to be stretched and to come together, to feel at home in exploration, with room to be and to breathe.
At our upstate retreat center and Brooklyn locations, in our sacred gatherings, healing containers and embodied mysticism classes, we invite you into spiritual experiences and sacred spaces that allow us — collectively and individually — to explore our own depths, underneath the underneath.
