Meditation

We create time and space for introspection, contemplation, prayer and connection with the Eternal.

Jewish meditation involves mindfulness practices within a Jewish spiritual context. 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.
