I connected with Bracha Goetz to discuss the pleasure ladder, addictions, and how to refine our sense of enjoyment from the lowest to the highest frequency. The key? Gratitude.
As sensitive souls, we are often spiritually aware — and sometimes very lost. We seek, but we are not sure what we are looking for. We try to fill the void within by turning to love, food, drugs, alcohol, travel, shopping — but something is always missing.
That restless emptiness within — where does it come from? And why don't we recognize it for what it is? If it's meant to be filled with spiritual things only, why is it so difficult? Can we change it?
In this interview with Bracha Goetz we talk about exactly that. We discuss eating disorders, addictions, the steps to refining our pleasures, and the overall spiritual context of why we are doing that. We share our own stories of spiritual hunger — and the most productive ways of filling it. This interview is a vibrant transmission of joy!
