Underneath the Underneath

About Underneath the Underneath

Welcome to Underneath the Underneath with Yocheved Sidof, Founder and Spiritual Leader of Ohmek (www.ohmekliving.com), a community of individuals pursuing deeper ways of being. Are you drawn to the mystical depths of life? Do you feel a call to explore what moves and shapes us? Do you long to live more fully, attuned to your light—and your shadows? Do you crave the paradox, the space where all is possible? Here, we explore these yearnings together and touch these profound depths. We dive into those layered, textured parts of self, those unseen parts that come into focus in the mystical realms– where the mystical becomes our medicine. These are living anthologies of embodied mysticism classes, text-based learnings, open-channel flows, vulnerable conversations, and sacred sessions. Together, we explore our own depths—as individuals and as a collective—in mystical realms and lived spiritual practice, navigating the messy middle of life that’s ripe with learnings. _________ More on Yocheved Sidof: Yocheved is the founder and spiritual leader Ohmek, where she weaves the sacred and contemplative space. She is also a mystic, teacher, writer, activist, and transformation catalyst. Yocheved harnesses decades of social entrepreneurship, certifications, and lived experience — including her own wounds and healing — into her work and passions, intersecting spiritual leadership, community building and collective restoration. Immersed in advanced trainings in healing intergenerational and collective trauma, Yocheved employs a unique modality that integrates therapeutic and somatic practices with mystical teachings. Her leadership evokes what's simply known within: how we are all interconnected, and that wholeness emerges when we are held in compassionate space. She shares generously of her unique abilities to cultivate connection and bring harmony to paradox– innovation and tradition, teacher and student, the broken and the whole.

   Noach: Babel — The Tower, the Tongue, and the Heart

   In this episode of Underneath the Underneath, Yocheved enters Parshat Noach through an unexpected door: the Tower of Babel. A generation survives the flood and rebuilds. They are unified, sophisticated, capable — one language, one speech. And yet something is hollow at the center. The Torah says safa echat, one lip — not lashon echat, one tongue. The Mei Hashiloach asks why, and his answer opens something deep: the holy tongue isn't defined by the language you speak. It's defined by whether your speech emerges from the root of life in your heart. Without that root, even sacred language becomes bird chirping. Drawing on the Mei Hashiloach, the Kli Yakar, and the Baal Shem Tov — and weaving in the trauma of collective rebuilding and the question of what we are building now — this episode traces the long road from the lip to the heart. From Babel to Sinai. From coordination without interiority to k'ish echad b'lev echad — one people, one heart. And the Baal Shem Tov's instruction to his students: pray even for the chirping bird. Even disconnected speech has letters inside it. The root is never gone — only buried.

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.

   Bereshit: What Life Is Showing Me — The Garden, the Exile, and the Call That Never Stops

   In this episode of Underneath the Underneath, Yocheved opens a new Torah cycle with a question that has been echoing since the beginning: Ayeka. Where are you? Drawing on Eicha Rabbah, the Tzror HaMor, and Rebbe Nachman — and weaving in a personal thread from a recent silent retreat — this episode traces the arc of the divine-human relationship from the garden to exile to the call that never stops. What is the sin of hiding? Where does the distance between us and the divine actually come from? And what does it mean that our hiding doesn't silence the call — it intensifies it? We're also sitting on the eve of October 7th. Three years in. Still in the process. What is life showing you right now? Can you receive it?

   Sukkot: Walking After You in the Wilderness — On Uncertainty, Faith, and Joy

   In this episode of Underneath the Underneath, Yocheved steps into Sukkot still carrying the warmth of Yom Kippur — and finds in the humble, temporary structure of the sukkah a map for one of the deepest questions of human life: how do we walk through uncertainty? Drawing on the Zohar's teaching that the sukkah is the shade of faith, the Izhbitzer on the schach as divine covering, and Rebbe Nachman's radical teaching that God created the world for people who can find faith through the confusion — this episode traces a trifecta alive in every sukkah: uncertainty, faith, and joy. Not joy as the overriding of difficulty. Joy as deep attunement with the rightness of life as it is. The joy that emerges when we can hold our uncertainty in faith. The joy of following the divine into the wilderness — not because we have it figured out, but because we're in love. We walked after You in the wilderness. That's the pillow talk of God and the Jewish people. And it's the invitation of Sukkot.
