Powerful 2026 Healing Boost from Shantree Kacera

Image
Namaste, Shantree :) It's Friday morning at 10:55 AM EDT as I begin to write this follow-up to last night's Spiritual Fasting webinar that you so graciously provided as a free introduction to your latest book and to your consulting practice . Your inspiring webinar and beautifully written book have given me a very powerful boost during this springtime month of healing. The linkage to the work of Rabbi Gabriel Cousens, MD, was worth the price of your book alone. But your book is filled with many more insights than this, and your potential to facilitate a deep healing in my case goes far beyond simple quantification in American or Canadian dollars. It's an integral medicinal correction that has many subtle life-force components involved. Like a key fits to a lock, the totality of your background is the key, and the totality of my context is the lock. If you're willing, I would like to start working with you as a client and a student. Because of a disability I am of very...

Jonathan writes: I've done some experimenting over the last five years and 1600 calories per day looks like my smartest target for this spring's dietary cleanse.

Nisan 2026/5786 Whole Food, Plant-Based Dietary Upgrade

Image
Friday. 8:32 PM EDT Albany, New York.  1 Iyar, 5786 AM. Sun 28 degrees 00 minutes Aries. Mars-Saturn-Mercury Conjunction this Fri-Mon ~7-8 degrees Aries. Jonathan writes: About an hour ago, we crossed into the Sabbath and Rosh Chodesh Iyar here in Albany. Nisan 2026/5786 has involved some powerful "seed-planting" for me in the nutritional sphere. Perhaps Nisan, Aries and the Spring in general are always a good time of year for beginning a clean dietary transition. Perhaps this is just a uniquely convergent Nisan in my life course. Here are the key "seeds" I "planted" this month: On 26 March, after fifteen years of delay, I finally resolved to earn a Cornell Plant-Based Nutrition Certificate and inquired about a scholarship for the needy On 30 March, I decided to start sprouting and ordered my first round of supplies (2 widemouthed 32 oz jars with stainless steel screens and an accompanying drainage rack) On 3 April, after fifteen years of delay, I decided ...

Friday. 11:56 AM EDT Albany, New York.  23 Nisan, 5786 AM. Sun 20 degrees 47 minutes Aries. Mars 0 degrees 39 minutes Aries. Jonathan writes: I wish I had several more hours to write today, but it will have to wait. All I can do now is simply record today's stunning synchronicity. It's a seed that could take some years to unpack. Here are the key elements in what could be a precise message from Hashem. 1. During my 6-8 AM Torah study session this morning, I was inspired to focus on Richard Schwartz's Vegan Revolution: Saving Our World, Revitalizing Judaism , which I acquired for Kindle back on 4 March 2023. I had known about Richard for perhaps a decade before I bought this book, in part through independent web research, in part through Keith Akers, and in part through Frank Hoffman. 2. I wanted to include a YouTube video of Richard at the top of my early morning Torah study blog post. The top search result that YouTube returned me was  Vegan Revolution: Saving Our World...
