The Jewish Meditation Companion

Relaxation. Rejuvenation. Connection to God. Reaching our Potential.

These are just some of the many goals of this monumental new book from acclaimed author and speaker Rabbi Yisroel Juskowitz. This book is a step-by-step guide, where Yisroel takes you by the hand and explores many facets of Jewish meditation, from inspirational Torah and Hassidic ideas, its history in both the Bible, the Talmud, and throughout Jewish history, its many physiological and psychological benefits, and its many practical applications. For anyone looking to enhance and enjoy their lives, experience Judaism in a more vibrant and fulfilling way, and grow as a person, this monumental work will leave you forever changed as both a person and a Jew. "As beautiful as it is to be able to connect with more people in one day than our ancestors may have communicated with in a lifetime, something clear has gotten lost in our times. The experience. The experience of life itself. The experience of living in the moment. The experience of wonderment. In this precious manuscript, Yisroel Juskowitz takes on a much-needed journey to reclaim our sense of self, in an exciting, heartfelt and focused way. With help from the great sages and the Hassidic masters, Yisroel invites us to experience all the gifts that are already in our midst, yet tucked away."

-Rav Shlomo Katz, world renowned musician, author, and speaker "Another masterpiece from Rabbi Yisroel Juskowitz. This work will give the reader a firm background of the Jewish outlook on meditation as well as its mechanics and goals. Yisroel also provides a variety of practices, tools, and advice for both new and seasoned meditators."

-Rabbi Shlomo Buxbaum, Director of the Lev Experience, world renowned author, speaker, and podcast host "In his new book, The Art of Jewish Meditation, Yisroel Juskowitz takes a fresh and vibrant approach to the ancient practice of Jewish Meditation. Jewish meditation is a vital component of Jewish life. It is built into the very structure of the daily life of the Jew - from prayer three times a day, to the recital of blessings, song and dance, and deep mystical meditations. Combining all of this into one well researched and organized book, Yisroel has truly created a one-stop self-help work to assist those who are seeking a deeper understanding of, and familiarity with, Jewish Meditation."

-Eliezer Yisroel, author of the Guided Jewish Meditations Podcast and YouTube Channel "Yisroel is an artist, musician and accomplished writer. Yisroel writes with passion, enthusiasm and wisdom drawn from many sources, especially Judaic commentaries. The Jewish Meditation Companion provides an incredible overview that reflects the tenets of modern day psychology. Mindfulness, meditation and "getting better" at becoming more spiritual are critical components in achieving a sense of inner calm and self-worth. This book is a gift and one to celebrate."
