Shiva is the week-long mourning period in Judaism for first-degree relatives: father, mother, son, daughter, brother, sister, and spouse. The mourners usually sit on wooden benches and friends and other relatives come to visit during this period of morning.
All mirrors in the house are covered and friends, neighbors and relatives usually will bring food into the house during this period as the mourners are expected to do nothing but mourn the loss. Each evening prayers are said for the lost relative.
