More specifically, they address the details of daily life, life-cycle events, the foods we eat and the natural phenomena of our world. In Winn-Leaderer’s book, the thirty-six blessings and one psalm are arranged in six categories: Life, Sustenance, Journeys, Sight, Wisdom, and Peace.
Although the words of the blessings appear in Hebrew and in English, this book is not only for those who practice Judaism. Because these blessings are universal in nature, they speak to most aspects of daily life, inspiring ideas and actions meant to benefit us all.
