Hi, I am Menachem

Inhabiting both worlds, I'm a truth seeker, dreamer, and believer in a world where authenticity is the name of the game. I picture a place where folks can wear their hearts on their sleeves, embracing their messiness and humanness. But let's not sugarcoat it; life's tough. Juggling the roles of a father, husband, and businessman, there are days I feel like Atlas, carrying the weight of the world on my shoulders, even drowning in my own skin.

For years, I've been on the lookout for a community and some solid support to show up real in every part of life. In the midst of all the noise, finding my own voice was a challenge. Over the last two years, I've delved into my inner world through plant medicine journeys, trying out different healing methods, and traditional psychotherapy. What I discovered was a missing piece: integration.

Out of this journey, Shema Retreats was born. We bring a mix of mind and body healing methods with practical tools for you to implement everything you've gained. I'm stoked to heal and grow right alongside you.
