Deepening Our Relationship with Hashem with Naomi Shulman

19 episodes - English - Latest episode: 14 days ago - ★★★★★ - 8 ratings

This podcast is based on my book 'With All I Am.' As a frum woman and co-founder of Chazkeinu, a mental health peer support organization for Jewish women, I have a passion for the place where mental health and spirituality meet. Each of us has our own set of talents, challenges, and personality traits - all of which can be used to build and deepen our personal relationship with Hashem. I’ve learned through my own struggles that our relationship with Hashem is a real relationship with ups and downs. Prayer can take many forms and doesn’t always have to be pretty - it just has to be real. In this podcast we will talk about ways to stay balanced and well - emotionally, spiritually, physically, and socially - as we grow in our personal avodas Hashem.

(Kol Isha) Geulah Song (Instrumental track: “Disenchanted” by My Chemical Romance) Well I was born in a place so far removed from the scene Where generations ago, we knew we’re all meant to be.
