Description

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.
