He focuses attention on ancient and modern Jewish practices and traditions, meditation exercises and contemplative study of Jewish sacred texts.

Through explanation and example, Cooper makes meditation practices accessible. He shows how busy people can deepen their own spiritual lives, and reap the rewards of greater spiritual health in their daily lives. "Weaves the strands of an ancient path into a spiritual tapestry that resonates with the heart of all religions…truly a gift of the Spirit for all times and all people."Joan Borysenko, Ph.D., Author of Minding the Body, Mending the Mind
