Summary

In this week’s Weekly Energy Boost, Elisheva Balas is joined by Daniel Naor for a powerful conversation on pressure, free will, and love. Drawing on the wisdom of Kabbalah, the Zohar, Torah teachings, and kabbalistic astrology, this episode reframes life’s challenges as invitations for growth rather than obstacles to avoid.

Together, they explore how control often masks fear, why avoidance keeps us stuck, and how true spiritual clarity comes from trusting the heart over constant calculation. This week’s energy calls us to pause, listen, and respond with greater awareness—before small signals turn into heavier lessons.


In this episode, you’ll discover:
  • Why pressure can be an expression of love and mercy
  • How time creates space for change and repair
  • The link between control, guilt, and self-love
  • How surrender unlocks clarity and forward movement
Weekly Energy Boost is your spiritual weather report for the week—offering practical tools to help you transform pressure into purpose and realign with the flow of life. Join us for the next episode of Weekly Energy Boost with @ElishevaBalas and special guest, @Daniel.Naor72.

0:15.8

weekly energy boost. My name is Elie Sheva, and today I have the good fortune of sharing the mic with Daniel Naor,

0:24.0

who is a pretty regular guest on Weekly Energy Boost, and is here to share with us so many

0:31.2

insights and practical uses of the energy we have this week that's coming both from, as we spoke last week, with Miriam Ashkenazi,

0:42.0

the planets are pushing us in a certain direction, but also from the point of view of the

0:49.8

Zohar and the Torah were being pushed in the same direction. So I do want to say, if you didn't

0:54.0

hear last week's episode, if you didn't hear

0:54.1

last week's episode, if you didn't hear the first episode of 2026, definitely go back and listen

0:59.9

to it. It's valid, I think, through March. So if you're any time you can catch it, please do.

Weekly energy boost is a seven-day spiritual weather forecast where we provide

our listeners with the most practical and powerful tools to navigate the coming seven days.

We do that by gleaning through the teachings of Kabbalah and extracting the most powerful

1:27.4

wisdom and tools that you can

use any week of the year, any year of your life. And once in a while, I have the opportunity to read

1:34.5

from Karen Berg, who is the founder and was for quite really a revolutionary figure in the expression of Kabbalah in the world.

1:48.2

And normally I read things that she's written at the end of the episode.

1:51.4

I actually wanted to start this week's episode with a couple paragraphs from an article

1:56.1

that Karen wrote a number of years ago to sort of set us on understanding the pressure that we might be

2:03.3

feeling this week and how we can turn that pressure into diamonds. So the article is from

2:10.9

2018, so it's quite old, but hey, we're here, the wisdom of Kabbalah is thousands of years old,

2:16.4
