Rooted in the word matir (to untie), this is the spiritual art of becoming unbound, of allowing ourselves to change.But not all structures dissolve gently. Some must burn.Together, we reflect on the altars we’ve built to false gods — the rigid scaffold...2025-07-2252 minUnderneath the UnderneathUnderneath the UnderneathThe Threshold Is the TeachingIn this week’s session of Underneath the Underneath, we enter the quiet ache of Parshat Pinchas — a portion filled with transition, legacy, and the tender moment where Moshe sees the Land he cannot enter, calls for new leadership, and blesses Yehoshua.Drawing on a mystical teaching from the Sfat Emet, we explore Moshe as the masculine Sun, Yehoshua as feminine Moon what it means to pass the torch — to love deeply enough to let go, and to meet the vulnerability of endings with sacred presence.

Through her mysterious three stops along the way and Bilam’s reaction to her, we uncover a profound map for attuning to embodied wisdom, nervous system healing, and the sacred art of halting before collapse. This class explores how the donkey’s three stops mirror the stages of nervous system defense, and how feminine wisdom teaches us to pause, to sense, and to refuse the familiar impulse to override what we know. Together, we reflect on how often we strike down o...2025-07-0850 minUnderneath the UnderneathUnderneath the UnderneathDesert Medicine: A Mystical Framework for Inner HealingIn this week’s episode of Underneath the Underneath, we explore Parshat Chukat as a mystical map of healing.

What if becoming means letting old identities fall away in the dark, trusting that something in us is still ripening?We journey from the belly of the void to the blossoming of the staff—a sacred pause between ambition and emergence. This is a teaching on the mercy of hiddenness, the holiness of not-yet, and the quiet authority that flowers when the soul s...2025-06-2558 minUnderneath the UnderneathUnderneath the UnderneathA Blessing I Wasn't Ready For: A Teaching From The SpiesWhat if the very thing you long for is also the thing you fear?In this week’s session of Underneath the Underneath, we journey into the Torah portion of Sh’lach, exploring the mystical dimensions of longing, readiness, and the ache of the fruit—the vision that overwhelms the vessel.Through Hasidic and Kabbalistic sources, we ask:What happens when the promise appears too early, too bright, too close?Can wandering be a form of sacred preparation?And is the “no” we sometimes receive not punishment—but a pause that r...2025-06-1856 minWhat is Collective Healing?What is Collective Healing?Accessing Ancestral Healing with Yocheved SidofHosted by Matthew Green. Produced by J'aime Rothbard. Yocheved Sidof traces her ancestry back 2,500 years, to the Babylonian exile from Jerusalem.

In the 1970s, Yocheved’s parents emigrated to the Midwestern United States, where she was raised in an Orthodox Jewish community steeped in Hasidic practice and Jewish mysticism.   In this extraordinary dialogue, Yocheved and Matthew explore how collective healing work led by Thomas Hübl and team brought her i...2025-06-1853 minUnderneath the UnderneathUnderneath the UnderneathThe Second Time Around: When Longing Becomes the OfferingNot all distance is exile.
