    Can Psychedelics be Holy? A Jewish Conversation on Healing

    Send us Fan Mail Can psychedelics help heal trauma? What happens when ancient spiritual wisdom meets modern mental health treatment? And how can we approach altered states of consciousness through both a clinical and Jewish lens? In this week's episode of Holy Health, I sit down with attorney, mental health advocate, and founder of The Jewish Healing Society, Adriana Kertzer, to explore the emerging field of psychedelic-assisted therapy and its potential role in treating PTSD and trauma. Adriana shares her work at the intersection of psychedelic science and Jewish life, including her research on psychedelic-informed mental health responses following the October 7th attacks in Israel and among Nova Festival survivors. Then, in our Torah extro I'm joined by Ginny Kafka, whom Adriana lovingly refers to as her rebbitzin. Together, we examine how Judaism understands altered states, suffering, healing, and spiritual transformation. We discuss whether profound experiences can become catalysts for growth and how Torah wisdom can help us think deeply and responsibly about healing trauma. Join us for a thoughtful, nuanced conversation at the crossroads of psychedelics, PTSD, and Torah. - - - - -  YouTube: https://youtu.be/AZ6tlEpv5K0 - - - - -  Links: Learn more about Jewish Healing Society: www.jewishhealingsociety.org - Follow JHS on Subtack: https://substack.com/@jewishhealingsociety?r=2idzo&utm_campaign=profile&utm_medium=profile-page - Stay up to date on the News of the Jews in the psychedelic space: https://www.linkedin.com/company/107376994/admin/dashboard/ - - - - - Holy Health Podcast: Email: Holyhealthpodcast@gmail.com Instagram: @holy_healthpodcast wwwwHolyhealthpodcast.com Holy Health Official Podcast: https://www.buzzsprout.com/589555/9876240 Holy Health YouTube Account: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrYPOvFawrjhH_2U7r61M2Q Musach Haguf: Instagram: @darapt613 @holy_healthpodcast - - - - - This podcast has been edited by  Yakir Abelow of 'YA Joker productions' For more information contact: https://wa.me/c/972586918089 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yakir_abelow_photography/

    Are Modern Relationship's Failing Because Masculinity and Feminity Are Reversed? With Yehuda Kamman

    Send us Fan Mail Today we’re diving into a topic that touches almost every relationship — the idea of polarity. What happens when men and women lose the natural dynamic that creates attraction, connection, and harmony? My guest today is Yehuda Kamman, who shares his perspective on something many couples are feeling but don’t always have the language for — the shift away from men being rooted in their masculine energy and women feeling disconnected from their feminine energy, and how that shift can impact intimacy, respect, and emotional connection in relationships. We talk about why this dynamic matters, how modern culture may be blurring these roles, and what it could look like for couples to rediscover a healthier balance. Whether you agree with everything or not, this conversation invites us to think deeply about how men and women show up for each other in partnership.  And at the end of the episode, we’ll hear a Torah insight from the wonderful Barbara Heller — comedian, actress, and passionate lover of Torah — who has managed to bring wisdom, humor, and heart together in a way that makes the Torah feel alive and relevant. - - - - -  YouTube: https://youtu.be/ev5OMAeiK4k - - - - -  Links: Yehuda Kamman - https://www.instagram.com/men_of_integrity_life?igsh=aW1vNnhpN3VldnZv Barbara Heller - https://www.instagram.com/barbieheller?igsh=MWRkMHFkaXh4dnlpZg== Barbara's podcast: https://www.barbheller.com/see-one-beautiful-soul-the-podcast - - - - - Holy Health Podcast: Email: Holyhealthpodcast@gmail.com Instagram: @holy_healthpodcast wwwwHolyhealthpodcast.com Holy Health Official Podcast: https://www.buzzsprout.com/589555/9876240 Holy Health YouTube Account: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrYPOvFawrjhH_2U7r61M2Q Musach Haguf: Instagram: @darapt613 @holy_healthpodcast - - - - - This podcast has been edited by  Yakir Abelow of 'YA Joker productions' For more information contact: https://wa.me/c/972586918089 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yakir_abelow_photography/

    Why Weight Won't Budge: A Nervous System Perspective on Women's Health

    Send us Fan Mail In  this episode, I’m joined by Ariane Hundt, clinical nutritionist and emotional biodecoding therapist, for a powerful conversation on weight, the nervous system, and why so many health-conscious women feel stuck despite doing everything “right.” Ariane reframes weight not as a problem to fix, but as an intelligent adaptation to stress, lack of safety, and unresolved emotional patterns. We explore why diets and protocols often fail long-term, how self-blame gets reinforced, and what actually shifts when the nervous system feels safe enough to change. The episode concludes with a Torah-based extro with Dini Coopersmith, bringing a deeper spiritual lens to the conversation. - - - - -  YouTube: https://youtu.be/V-wupUvAZZU - - - - - Links: Ariane Hundt: Website: http://www.arianehundt.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/decodeyourweight?igsh=cGR4dXdiOGthcnps https://www.linkedin.com/in/ariane-hundt-39b7b28?utm_source=share&utm_campaign=share_via&utm_content=profile&utm_medium=android_app Dini Coopersmith  Website: https://www.reconnectiontrips.com Insagram: https://www.instagram.com/reconnectiontrips?igsh=NmoxNzhlZTBjOWg4 Dinicoopersmith@gmail.com digital@graphosprint.co.il - - - - - Holy Health Podcast: Email: Holyhealthpodcast@gmail.com Instagram: @holy_healthpodcast wwwwHolyhealthpodcast.com Holy Health Official Podcast: https://www.buzzsprout.com/589555/9876240 Holy Health YouTube Account: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrYPOvFawrjhH_2U7r61M2Q Musach Haguf: Instagram: @darapt613 @holy_healthpodcast - - - - - This podcast has been edited by  Yakir Abelow of 'YA Joker productions' For more information contact: https://wa.me/c/972586918089 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yakir_abelow_photography/
