120 mealtime blessings from around the world, featuring a variety of sentiments, from the amusing to the heartfelt to the sacred. Offering thanks for our daily bread is just about universal. A Chinese proverb gives us this reminder, “When eating bamboo shoots, remember the man who planted them.” The Irish lyrically ask that “the sweet light within you guide you on your way.” And for those who like to cut to the chase, there’s “Good bread, good meat, good God, let’s eat.” What they have in common is a joyous and heartwarming appreciation for life’s bounty. Beautifully illustrated, these pages a bounty of blessings, timeless prayers, and irreverent sayings that connect us to all cultures and countries. Saying Grace is an expression of gratitude perfect for holidays, passing around the family table, or for solitary contemplation—whenever the spirit moves you.

This box set includes Dr. Rachel Naomi Remen's national bestseller My Grandfather's Blessings: Stories of Strength, Refuge, and Belonging, and the 10th anniversary edition of the New York Times bestseller Kitchen Table Wisdom: Stories that Heal, which includes new material from the author. In My Grandfather's Blessings, which Dr. Dean Ornish calls "one of the most extraordinarily moving books I have ever read," cancer physician and master storyteller Dr. Rachel Naomi Remen uses her luminous stories to remind us of the power of our kindness and the joy of being alive. Through the teachings of her grandfather, an Orthodox rabbi and scholar of the Kabbalah, Dr. Remen explains how we can discover our wholeness through service to others--and the way to restore hidden wholeness in the world. Kitchen Table Wisdom is a remarkable collection of true stories that draws on the human tradition of shared experience--showing us life in all its power and mystery and reminding us that the things we cannot measure may be the things that ultimately sustain and enrich our lives. With new material, this special 10th anniversary edition addresses the same spiritual issues that made the original a bestseller: suffering, meaning, love, faith, and miracles. "Rachel Naomi Remen is nature's gift to us, a genius of that elusive and crucial capacity, the human heart. She has much to teach us about healing, living, and loving." -Daniel Goleman, Ph.D., author of Emotional Intelligence
