How I Can Help You Feed Your Soul
About Me — Nina Amir
From the outside, I looked successful — at least by other people's standards.
I'd landed three traditional — publishing deals and self-published 18 eBooks, and almost all of my books had become Amazon bestsellers. I'd spoken on numerous stages, sometimes sharing the mic with leading industry experts. I was considered a thought leader and had a sizeable following on social networks.
Yet, after 15 years of striving for success by publishing industry standards, I found myself empty. I had little passion for my work. I felt uninspired and lost… And nothing I did was enough.
I was trying to meet my literary agent's expectations for who I should be or needed to be. I was attempting to be patient and write what I was supposed to write and do what I was told to do so that someday I might get to write the books I wanted to write.

When Forgiveness Seems Impossible
I sat in Yom Kippur services struggling with an issue I’ve grappled with for several years now. As I looked at the faces of two people, I found it impossible to forgive them. With the gates closing, I could not reconcile the idea of forgiveness with their ongoing actions. “Oh, God,” I prayed, “Forgive me, …
Who Shall Live and Who Shall Die? And Can We Avert the Decree?
We are told that on Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, “it is written” and on Yom Kippur, the Day of Repentance, “it is sealed.” What is “it”? Our fate for the next year. With Erev Yom Kippur, the beginning of this awe inspiring day, almost upon us, it is important to think about who …

Thoughts on the Shema and V’ahavta
Jews say the Shema and V’ahavta twice a day. The Shema, which actually includes theV’ahavta, represents the cornerstone of Jewish belief. In the Jewish renewal world, and elsewhere, I’ve seen an interest in providing new translations for this prayer. The Reform Movement recently published a new prayer book, which provides a very nice translation of the …
Chabad and LOA: A Lesson in Consciousness for the New Year
I often receive emails from our local Chabad rabbi, Yochanan Friendman, who I like very much. He actually taught my son to lay tefillin, and inspired him to do so for a month – actually more – and bought him a beautiful tefillin bag for doing so. (I’ve done some editing for his father, Manis …

The Good and the Bad on Rosh Hashanah
Ah…the shofar on Rosh Hashanah. It’s a lovely sound when well blown. It’s a call to action, a call to prayer, a call to attention, a call to go inward, a call to return – to God, to religious observance, to community, to self. And it’s a mitzvah, a commandment, to hear it blown on the the …
Pray With and From Your Heart this Rosh Hashanah
Here in California, we have just a few more hours until the start of Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year. I’m hurrying to finish my work. I’ve already purchased my round challah from the local Jewish bakery. My brisket is made. I need to shower and get dressed and make it to services early, because …

The Strongest Prayer on the New Year
Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, is almost upon us. Depending upon where you live, it might be less than 24 hours before you find yourself sitting in a synagogue somewhere thinking about the last year, the new year, what you need to repent for, who you need to go to and ask for forgiveness, and what …
Lonely Writing on Shabbat
It’s Shabbat, the Jewish Sabbath. Technically, religiously, halachic-ly (by Jewish law), I shouldn’t be writing, since writing constitutes work, and work is forbidden on the Sabbath. But I’m not that observant. I’m a spiritually observant Jew…but these days, despite the fact that I write about Shabbat and how to make it meaningful and spiritual, I’m …

Laurence Elliott
Professional Dancer, Polish National Ballet
Since working with Nina, my confidence as a dancer has improved massively. She has helped me see that I could move with self-assurance from the middle or back of the class to the front and show teachers and ballet masters what I can do. Thinking about the big picture, and what is the purpose of my dancing, has encouraged me to set life goals that are bigger than just 'get a contract.'
