Step into the quiet of Cheshvan with this grounding guided meditation. As we transition from the spiritual intensity of Tishrei into a month with no holidays, we are invited to return to the rhythm of our daily routines. This meditation will help you discover that holiness isn't just reserved for extraordinary moments or marked calendar days—it lives in your everyday life. Learn to carry the light of the high holidays as a small, glowing flame into your daily chores, your quiet Tuesdays, and your simple moments of connection. Breathe in, settle into the present, and embrace the divine in your everyday routine. "I find the sacred in the ordinary."

Welcome to a new month and a new episode! As we enter Rosh Chodesh Cheshvan—often known as the quiet, reflective month following the high holiday season. Aura is joined by special guest Rebekah Dahan. Rebekah is a licensed social worker, EMDR practitioner, and the founder of the Ayeka Method. In this soulful conversation, they dive deep into emotional healing, processing trauma, somatic awareness, and how we can use the unique energy of Cheshvan to do deep inner work and reconnect with ourselves on a nervous-system level. ✨ Connect with Rebekah Dahan: For inquiries on EMDR, therapy, or the Ayeka Method, reach out via email at [email protected]. ✨ Connect with & Support Aura: Instagram: @aura.rosenblatt Support the Podcast (Buy Me a Coffee): buymeacoffee.com/aura.schwartz

In this profound episode of the Divine Detour podcast, Aura sits down with Rabbi Mendel Kalmenson—author of On Purpose and Positivity Bias—to unpack the Lubavitcher Rebbe’s revolutionary approach to finding meaning in life. If you have ever felt lost, overwhelmed by the pressure to "change the world," or confused about your life's calling, this conversation will completely shift your perspective. Rabbi Kalmenson explains why the modern, secular search for purpose often leaves us feeling empty, and reveals the deeply empowering Jewish perspective: that your purpose is intimately tied to your unique talents, your family, your circumstances, and—most surprisingly—your greatest struggles. ✨ Connect with & Support Aura: Instagram: @aura.rosenblatt Support the Podcast (Buy Me a Coffee): buymeacoffee.com/aura.schwartz

This episode is dedicated in honor of the complete and quick healing (Refuah Shleima) of Michoel ben Nechama Dina. As we enter the powerful month of Elul, I gather an incredible panel of women to dive deep into the spiritual energy of this season. In Jewish tradition, Elul is the month when "The King is in the field"—a time when God is intimately accessible, deeply present, and waiting to connect with us exactly as we are. But what does a real relationship with God actually look like? How do we speak to the Divine differently this month? And most importantly, how do we move beyond the intellect and actually feel that connection in our bodies and our nervous systems? Join me and my special guests for a profound, grounding, and soulful conversation about prayer, embodiment, and finding the Divine in the everyday. 🎙️ Special Guests in this Episode: Nechama Schusterman | Instagram: @nechamaschusterman Mushky Notik | Instagram: @mushkynotik Yocheved Sidof | Instagram: @yochevedsidof Simi Polonsky | Instagram: @thelifeofsimi Aleza Ainsworth | Instagram: @alezaainsworth ✨ Connect with & Support Aura: Instagram: @aura.rosenblatt Support the Podcast (Buy Me a Coffee): buymeacoffee.com/aura.schwartz

Welcome to this special episode as Aura sits down with Yarin Weltsman (@queenyarin) to explore the deep spiritual potential of Rosh Chodesh Elul and the transformative 40-day journey leading up to Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. In this episode, Yarin breaks down her practical 4-week framework for Elul, reframing Teshuva as a empowering "return to self" rather than a process rooted in shame. They discuss the power of somatic dance, overcoming limiting beliefs, tapping into your unique gifts, and how Jewish wisdom provides concrete, daily tools for self-discovery and alignment.

Welcome to another episode of the Divine Detour podcast! In this episode, Aura sits down with Rabbi Moshe Genuth for a profound and eye-opening conversation about discovering our "Divine Purpose." If you have ever felt lost in your career, struggled to figure out your true calling, or wondered if you are truly on the path Hashem intended for you, this episode is for you. Rabbi Genuth breaks down the complex dynamic between authentic confidence and ego, explaining why the Yetzer Hara (the evil inclination) is often impossible to distinguish from our own inner voice. Together, they explore how to tell if you are working to serve your own "animal soul" or if you have become a true vessel for a higher spiritual purpose.

Welcome to a brand new month! In this special Rosh Chodesh series Podcast, host Aura Rosenblatt sits down with the profound Chana Kalmenson: poet, teacher of Jewish mysticism, and shlucha of Chabad of Belgravia in London. Together, they explore the deep emotional and kabbalistic energies of Rosh Chodesh Av. As we step into the Hebrew month of Av, a time historically associated with collective mourning, destruction, and the breaking of vessels, Chana guides us through the spiritual work of holding paradox. How do we find ultimate comfort (Menachem Av) amidst the darkness? How do we practice self-compassion as the antidote to shame when we feel broken? If you are seeking grounded inspiration, soulful conversation, and a practical map of your inner life, this episode will meet you exactly where you are.

Caroline opens up about her unconventional upbringing in Los Angeles and the childhood trauma of losing her mother at just five years old. She walks us through her wild teenage years, dropping out of high school, and getting swept into the fast-paced, glamorous world of international DJing alongside Hollywood's elite. With incredible vulnerability, Caroline shares the darker side of that lifestyle, detailing her struggles with severe addiction, a near-fatal overdose in her early thirties, and the wake-up call that finally led her to sobriety and a better life for her daughter. The conversation then shifts to her courageous activism following the events of October 7th. Caroline discusses the shock of seeing her peers stay silent, the backlash she faced for speaking the truth, and how she found her ultimate purpose in standing up against hate and advocating for the Jewish community.

Welcome to the Divine Purpose podcast! In this beautiful episode of our series on Divine Purpose, I sit down with the incredible Rivky Gross for a conversation that will completely shift how you view your spiritual journey and your connection to Hashem. Rivky shares her profound story of growing up in the Bais Yaakov school system, realizing she was an out-of-the-box seeker, and ultimately finding her unique path to somatic healing and breathwork. We dive deep into the terrifying but beautiful process of walking away from what is working—including the moment Rivky shut down her highly successful six-week groups because her body signaled a deep "doneness." We also explore her intense near-death experience following a fire in her home, the moment she realized she was entirely disconnected from her body, and the incredible "medicine without medicine" that brought her back to true alignment. If you have ever struggled with the fear of being misunderstood, or if you are trying to figure out what your divine mission actually is, this episode is for you. Spoiler alert: your only real purpose is simply to be you.

Welcome to this Rosh Chodesh Sivan meditation, a guided Jewish meditation to help you enter the new month with openness, spiritual connection, and the energy of receiving.

In Jewish wisdom, this moment represents the possibility of bringing holiness into everyday life and becoming a vessel for Divine wisdom, clarity, and connection. This guided meditation invites you to slow down, soften, and explore what it means to truly receive — spiritually, emotionally, and personally. ✨ In this meditation, you will:  • Reflect on the spiritual energy of Sivan and Matan Torah  • Explore the theme of receiving Divine wisdom and guidance  • Deepen your connection between spirituality and everyday life  • Create space for openness, trust, and inner alignment  • Honor Rosh Chodesh through grounded Jewish spirituality and reflection
