People from all walks of life are discovering the benefits of Shabbat observance as a way to reconnect with family and friends, to recharge physically and emotionally. Yet there is a fundamental dimension of Shabbat that relates to the inherent holiness God intended for that day, the spiritual energy that leads us to the wholeness and harmony that only the seventh day can generate.

Based on the teachings of Rebbe Nachman of Breslov and his foremost disciple Reb Nosan, 7th Heaven explores the art of consciously observing Shabbat and understanding in-depth many of that day's traditional spiritual practices. It offers deeper meaning and purpose into a broad range of Shabbat observances and seeks to show how each law or custom fits within the comprehensive scheme of the Shabbat mosaic.

Each section examines one of the five time frames of Shabbat:

• On the Way In
• The Night
• The Morning
• The Afternoon
• On the Way Out
