Netilat Yadayim (Washing of the Hands):

Blessed are You, Lord our God, King of the universe, who has sanctified us with His commandments and commanded us regarding the washing of the hands.

Asher Yatzar (Blessing after Using the Restroom):

Blessed are You, Lord our God, King of the universe, who formed man with wisdom and created in him many openings and cavities.

It is revealed and known before Your glorious throne that if but one of them were to be opened or closed improperly, it would be impossible to survive and stand before You even for a moment.

Blessed are You, Lord, who heals all flesh and performs wonders.

Elohai Neshamah (Thanking God for the Soul):

My God, the soul You placed within me is pure.

You created it, You formed it, You breathed it into me, and You preserve it within me.

You will eventually take it from me and restore it to me in the time to come.

As long as the soul is within me, I give thanks before You, Lord my God and God of my fathers, Master of all works, Lord of all souls.

Blessed are You, Lord, who restores souls to the dead.

Yehi Ratzon (Prayer for the Day):

May it be Your will, Lord my God and God of my fathers, to accustom me to Your Torah and make me cling to Your commandments.

Do not bring me to sin, transgression, or iniquity, nor to temptation or disgrace.

Let not the evil inclination control me.

Keep me far from a bad person and from a bad companion, and bring me close to the good inclination and a good companion.

Grant me, today and every day, grace, kindness, and mercy in Your eyes and in the eyes of all who see me.

Bestow upon me bountiful kindness.

Thus shall you bless the children of Israel, saying to them:

• May the Lord lift His face to you and give you peace.

So shall they place My name upon the children of Israel, and I will bless them.
