Brachot are blessings recited in Jewish tradition to express gratitude and acknowledgment of God's presence in daily life. They are often said before and after eating, during prayer, or in response to experiencing something beautiful or significant. These blessings help cultivate mindfulness and appreciation for the world around us. There are different categories of Brachot, including those for food, general blessings, and blessings for specific occasions. Each blessing has a specific formula and intention, reflecting the importance of recognizing and thanking God for the many gifts and experiences in life.
