abstract = "This chapter surveys several Jewish rituals and practices, some of which are personal and some of which are collective, some traditional and some newly invented, which may have a therapeutic effect on their practitioners: Torah study in a chavruta (a fellowship of two), tehillim (psalms) recitation, Amen meal, saint veneration and individual pilgrimage, miqveh (women{\textquoteright}s ritual bath) and the shiva (rite of mourning). Our survey points to a dimension of these practices and rituals shared by almost all of them, that may help to explain their therapeutic effects – and that is the salience of community and interconnectedness.",
