EP #341 - Unlocking the Body's Wisdom - An interview with transformational healer and mentor, Ofer Niv
I begin this interview by acknowledging that the word Alchemy always catches my attention—and alchemy is certainly part of what my guest, Ofer Niv, embodies. I’m so honored and grateful to welcome Ofer to Empowering Chats. He is a transformational healer, mentor, and guide who specializes in shamanic energy work.
Ofer’s story began in Israel, where he was born and raised on a kibbutz in a family grounded in traditional values. He was encouraged to pursue education, earn a degree, and step into a productive role in society. He eventually married, and he and his wife moved to the U.S., where they’ve lived for the past 40 years.
Everything in his life shifted when Ofer was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. He was told his life would be shortened and compromised, with no real solution. It was a grim and heavy moment—but the rebel in him chose a different path. Instead of giving in, he turned inward and began exploring his spiritual side. In 2011, a new perspective on life began to take shape, and his body started responding to the shift. Working with several healing masters, he experienced physical sensations—tingles—that signaled transformation. By 2020, he was off all medication and had overcome MS.
Ofer’s healing journey revealed to him that there is so much more available to us—beyond what the five senses can access.
Through his practice, Alchemical Flame, Ofer helps others connect with their higher selves by navigating the five mystical realms: Heart, Shadow, Magical, Divine, and Unseen. This work helps people unlock their innate healing potential, clear energetic blocks, and reconnect with their divine essence.
Ofer believes that true healing comes with the help of our spirit. We all carry an aspect of the Divine within us—and when we recognize that, we can tap into the spark that helps us heal ourselves and support others on their journey.
He offers live events on his website every other Wednesday at 11 AM PST. To experience one of his 30-minute free events, be sure to visit his site.
Ofer reminds us that every ending is also a new beginning.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
