I'm Chanah Rothberg: mom of ten, chef, and Kosher Energy Therapist in Israel. Momshiach helps mothers make space for the woman behind the motherhood, through nourishing food, soul work, coaching and community.
Before motherhood I ran clean food cafés in Jerusalem, where people knew me as Chef Raw Raw. I was living as the healthiest, most connected version of myself.
Right before COVID, I married a man with six children and became their full-time mother overnight. We had four more. Ten children, a new city and a new religious life, all within a couple of years. Somewhere in the middle of it, I lost track of who I was.
Food changed. My emotional world changed. I needed help and had no hour to spare for it. What brought me back was a mix of the things I already knew and a few I had to learn: feeding myself first, clearing the blocks I couldn't talk my way out of, and finding other women who understood.
Momshiach is that path, made simple. No perfection and no extreme change. We gently add good into your life and remove what keeps you stuck.
Every part of my work does the same thing: it brings you back to yourself. Start with whichever door feels easiest today.
Colorful, plant-forward cooking for busy moms. When you nourish yourself, your kids follow.
Private, remote sessions that clear what's in your way. You don't sit in a room. You listen to a short voice report. Open to everyone, not only moms.
One-on-one support to rewrite the story you tell about yourself and build simple habits you can keep.
A self-care retreat home in Efrat for women who need a real pause, and for seminary girls who want a taste of Jewish home life.

You made it very simple. Sometimes it's so complicated in our heads, but it's not really complicated at all. I'm less worried, and more content, I'm not worried. It feels like ME.
Chanah has helped me tremendously in moving past mental and emotional blockages, unhealthy thought and behavioral patterns which I have been holding on to for many years, some of them for a lifetime.
Chanah's heart hears and sees in a way that just 'gets it'. With a presence so available and super open to flow with you wherever it is you're going. So grateful to meet this gift along my journey!
Chanah has a special way of making you feel seen and supported with gentleness and an emotional intuitiveness that is rare to find! Her deep care is felt immediately and her wisdom and life experience are extremely beneficial as a client.
Everyone wants to feel heard, but not everyone understands that being heard begins with ourselves. Do we really understand all that is transpiring in our mind, heart and soul? In every generation, the Ribbono shel Olam places certain people, gifted with the ability to provide this gift for others. My dear friends, Chanah & Pesach Rothberg, have dedicated their lives to create the space for the authentic soul seeker to understand the inner conversations of our true selves, and develop a healthy approach which is geared toward each person individually. Through working with them, one will be blessed to begin to experience sincere joy in becoming an Eved Hashem.

From someone who has shelves and shelves of cookbooks — I specifically love this one 🩵
I came to Israel looking for a hobby. I purchased your cookbook and it became my companion throughout the summer.
This is more than just a cookbook, it's an experience.

No. OrBach Energy is open to people of all backgrounds. "Kosher" describes the Torah-rooted practice, not who it's for.
