The Handbook of Jewish Meditation Practices: A Guide for Enriching the Sabbath and Other Days of Your Life
To nourish your spiritual self you need "rest" from your hectic life. This book shows you how to do it.
While broad interest in Jewish meditation is a relatively new phenomenon, meditative practices have been deeply rooted in Judaism for thousands of years. Here, Rabbi David A. Cooper shows newcomers and experienced meditators alike how Jewish meditation can be an integral part of daily life, and can refresh us in our day-to-day encounters with ourselves, other people, and in ritual, prayer, Torah study, and our celebration of the Sabbath and other holy days.

Usable and Inspiring:
The structure of this book is its strength. After a really wonderful and inspiring beginning chapter, the author follows with *many* mini-chapters of specific meditations. They're really easy to understand and to use. He writes the meditations in a step-by-step format that makes them feel really accessible. I did the meditation on a sacred/spiritual text recently and it was very rich. I particularly appreciate this book as a practicing Jew who is constantly looking for ways to bring meaning to my practice.
