In this book, Rabbi Yael Levy gathers wisdom from Psalms and the Jewish mystical tradition into a unique Mindfulness approach to the ancient Jewish practice of Counting the Omer during the 49 days between Passover and Shavuot. This 96-page, full-color guide includes the Omer blessings in Hebrew and English, daily teachings and intentions, pages for reflections and photographs to inspire meditation. Daily suggestions for action deepen the experience of counting each day and making each day count. Using insights gained from more than a decade of her own spiritual exploration with the Omer, Rabbi Levy has created a guide for spiritual growth for beginners and those who have experience with this practice.

Having been recently introduced to the spiritual practice of counting the Omer when I was given this prayer book by a dear friend I was awed by the awareness created by doing this daily practice. I found this prayer book to be the best prayers for connecting with my own spiritual connection with the Divine.

I first used this wonderful guide last year. It is chock full of healing and inspiring wisdom that is rooted in Jewish tradition. This easy-to-follow book helps make an ancient tradition relevant and accessible as it guides the user through a journey of living a more mindful existence in this complex, rapidly moving modern world. Rabbi Yael Levy's guide may well become a classic!

I have been using Rabbi Levy's guide to count the Omer since it's inception. It is easy to use and very inspirational . I also recommend checking out the link to receive daily emails during the Omer from Rabbi Levy.
