As Passover approaches, an increasing number of modern Jews are preparing not only for their annual seders but also for “Counting the Omer,” an ancient practice of blessing each of the 49 days between Passover and the holiday of Shavuot.

In recent years, “Counting the Omer” has been re-imagined as an invitation to Mindfulness practice: paying attention not only to each day as it passes but also to the individual spiritual qualities that were assigned to it by the 16^th century Jewish mystics.

A Way In is offering assistance to those who are taking on this practice. Rabbi Yael Levy's Omer guide, Journey through the Wilderness: A Mindfulness Approach to the Ancient Jewish Practice of Counting the Omer ($19.99), available on createspace.com as well as on amazon.com. In addition, we will post daily Twitter guides and send free daily emails with reminders to count.

A Way In also invites participants to join an online community through a blog on its Web site and Facebook page.
