What Is Jewish Meditation?
Jewish meditation involves mindfulness practices within a Jewish spiritual context. We create
time and space for introspection, contemplation, prayer and connection with the Eternal.
During the Shabbat Service we Shema (listen). We practice gratitude through prayers like
Modeh Ani and Birchot Hashachar. We take time for contemplation during the Amidah. Plus, at
Makom, we often follow the Amidah with a guided meditation. Many find that meditation
practices improve mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual health. Please come to a Shabbat
service to see how we meditate or join one of our weekly meditations.
