What's a nefesh and what's a neshamah? | Ask the Rabbi Live with Rabbi Chaim Mintz

Nefesh is the power of life, and even animals have it. Neshamah is the soul, which is a holy creation that G-d gave only to human beings. The nefesh is not holy, while the neshamah makes us holy and helps us connect to the Holy Creator.
