Sabbath Gift

SABBATH
from Hebrew Shabbat (meaning, to cease or to rest)
1. a time of rest.
2. the seventh day of the week, often from Friday evening to Saturday evening, observed as a day of rest and worship by Jews and some Christians.

Taking a Sabbath each week is an opportunity to focus on what’s important in life—for your life. It’s true that Sabbath is an ancient concept, but taking a day each week for what’s important is a growing trend and it has proven positive for individuals, couples, families and seniors. In a sense, it’s an ancient solution for the modern problem of a too-busy life.

With insights from doctors, psychologists and a rabbi, author Bruce Manners explores the physical, mental, social, emotional and spiritual advantages of taking one day a week—a Sabbath—to rest.

Sabbath can help bring back a rhythm to life that not only enhances life, but also helps give it more purpose and meaning.
