Week 5 of Counting the Omer, Keep Up! 2010-04-30T13:38:45-06:00 Guest Contributor

LOGO Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.

I really love the Omer… okay, rather, I have a love hate relationship with counting the Omer. I love the spiritual lift I get, but I sometimes get annoyed at one more thing to do before sleep… hence why I need to count the Omer nightly.

I use a wonderful book that asks you questions and gives you great thoughts for each day that relates to the sepherot (like the chakras). Here is their online version for week 5 – Meaningful Life. The book is called “Counting the Omer – A Spiritual Guide” by Rabbi Simon Jacobson.

Check it out!
