Ep. 578: What Is the Torah View on Alternative Forms of Healing, Like Breathwork, Plant Medicine, Somatic Therapy and Others?

from MyLife: Chassidus Applied · host Rabbi Simon Jacobson

Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics: Yud Shevat/Basi L’Gani What is the main theme of Basi L’Gani and this year’s 16th chapter? What is the mission of our generation? What is the role of Gan Eden today? Why can’t the Divine be revealed in the presence of sins? What treasures are being splurged to win today’s wars? If the treasures are being splurged, why are some of us struggling financially? How do we benefit from learning about higher spiritual worlds and levels of G-dliness that we might be unable to access in our physical world?   Does the power to conceal require deeper energy than the power to reveal? How would you define a Rebbe in one word? How do you translate “bittul”? Is tzedakah an act of bittul?  Should we add tzedakah in honor of Yud Shevat? What is the Torah view on alternative forms of healing, such as breathwork, plant medicine, somatic therapy and others?
