This week, we are speaking with Miriam Pineles, a doctor of acupuncture and Chinese medicine practicing in Cedarhurst, NY.
Miriam is someone who really heals from the inside out. I met Miriam almost five years ago now when I was pregnant with my first son and experiencing really horrible back pain in my third trimester. Miriam healed me in one week. I couldn’t believe it. Honestly, before going to her, I was skeptical about acupuncture and had no interest in it but afterward I was completely sold and talking about it to everyone I knew.
Throughout the last few years though, I’ve learned that it wasn’t just the acupuncture or the healing techniques she used, it was Miriam herself. She is meant to be a healer. She is someone that holds space for so many individuals and when you’re with her, she makes you feel like you are the only person that matters.
In addition to her clinical practice, Miriam teaches “Living With The Elements,” a course she created to help women gain deeper self-awareness and foster harmony in their relationships and homes. If you want to learn more and sign up (it starts September 9!) you can do so at livingwiththeelements.com.
In this interview, we speak more about the course she created and what you will get out of it as well as:
- How she got into Chinese medicine and how it’s deeply connected to Torah and Kabbalah
- What is going on under the surface when you’re getting acupuncture or Chinese medicine treatments and why they work
- Where a lot of unhappiness and disease stem from
- How we may be passing unresolved trauma and issues onto our kids — and how you can stop that
- What the five elements of Chinese medicine are and how they connect to Judaism
- We go through each element and learn a little bit more about what each one means
- What the framework of seeing yourself and child through the elements can do for your parenting
- Practical parenting takeaways you can start today
…and SO MUCH MORE!
