In this episode of Underneath the Underneath, Yocheved enters the Nine Days and Tisha B’Av through the element of fire — and asks what fire actually does to us when we’re willing to stay with it.
Drawing on Elijah’s breakdown in the wilderness, the burning bush that wouldn’t be consumed, Michael Meade’s three layers of human life, and a stunning teaching from the Rambam’s Tisha B’Av prayer — this episode traces four movements of fire. What is burning. Staying with what burns. What burns away. And what becomes audible in the aftermath.
With fire You consumed it. With fire You will rebuild.
This is a teaching for anyone moving through the heat of this season — and anyone willing to ask what the fire might be revealing.

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.
