Naso: My Sensitivity Is Not a Hiding Place — Sota, Nazir, and the Arc from Shame to Blessing

In this episode of Underneath the Underneath, Yocheved enters one of the Torah’s most charged sequences — the Sota, the Nazir, and the priestly blessing — and asks the question underneath all of it: what drives the vow?Drawing on Rashi, the Sfat Emet, the Gene Keys of Richard Rudd, and her own ancestral reckoning with forced conversion and the violence of suppressed truth, Yocheved traces the arc from activation to alchemy. From the mirror of the Sota to the shadow of the Nazir — the ways we use devotion as armor, sensitivity as a hiding place, and holiness as a sophisticated avoidance strategy.And then the sin offering. And then the blessing.My sensitivity is not a hiding place. The vow beneath the vow is where the real work begins.Ohmek Session dated June 2, 2026__________More on Yocheved Sidof:Yocheved Sidof is a mystic, teacher, trauma-informed spiritual guide and leader of Ohmek, a community of women and men pursuing deeper ways of Being.__________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.Website: www.ohmekliving.comInstagram: @ohmek.livingTo support these sessions and our offerings, strengthen our community, and enhance your engagement we welcome you to join MAAGAL, our founding membership circlehttps://www.patreon.com/ohmek/membership
