+++ This Blessing List is now closed. Please sign up here to receive blessings again next week. See you there! +++
Thanks to everybody who signed up this week – may these blessings bring you good things!
+++ Update: The third part of the series “Blessing: How to Get Started in 9 Simple Steps” is now online for your reading (and blessing!) pleasure. 🙂 +++
Once a week, on Wednesday, I bless everybody who has requested it for the current week.
The process is simple:
If you would like to be included in the blessings, leave a comment to the current blessing post by Tuesday at the latest.
I will perform the blessing ceremony at some point on Wednesday, and bless everybody who has left a comment by Tuesday.*
All times listed are in German time (i.e. EST+6, apart from the few weeks a year when the US switches to and from daylight savings at a different time than Germany). Please plan accordingly.
I will only bless people who have explicitly requested it in a comment to the current week’s blessing post. I.e. if you would like to be blessed again next week, you will need to comment again.
(To do that, you can come back at any point during the week. I put up the next Blessing List right when I close the preceding one, so you can sign up for the next blessing whenever it’s convenient for you.)
You can also request blessings for other people (or, for that matter, for pets, plants, …) – as long as you have their explicit consent, or you are their rightful “guardian” (e.g. parents for their underage kids; legal caretakers for people with dementia; owners of pets or gardens for their pets or gardens; …).
So… if you would like to receive my blessings this upcoming Wednesday, or if you have any questions, please leave a comment below!
You can use your real name, a nickname of your choice, or comment anonymously.
Please feel free to also share the link to the Blessing List with other people who are interested in being blessed. Everybody is welcome to sign up.
About the blessing itself: During the ceremony, I send a “generic” blessing to everybody on the list, which also includes intentions for health, protection, and divine guidance. For those who have a relationship with a specific deity or deities, I respectfully ask for blessings from their respective deities during this general part of the cermony, too.
(If you don’t feel comfortable sharing your personal religious beliefs on a public forum, there is no need to list them. I trust that your personal deities will know who you are and will, hopefully, respond favourably to this general request. 🙂 )
If there is anything in particular you’d like me to focus on, you can add that to your comment (in just a few words, please!). I will then include this intention specifically for you, but also keep you in the general blessing.**
And if you’d like to know more about the blessings first, you can read the behind-the-scenes-take here – but don’t forget to come back and sign up afterwards! 🙂
For those of you who’d also like to bless others and aren’t sure how to start, I’ve posted a practical guide: Blessing: How to Get Started in 9 Simple Steps.
One final note: I’ll do my best to approve comments in a timely manner, but I am not glued to my screen. It might occasionally take a day or two for your comment to be approved. Thanks for your patience!
* I’m not dogmatic about this deadline. The Tuesday cutoff is simply to make sure I see your blessings in time, and they will be included for sure. Any comments left after midnight on Tuesday (German time) might or might not be read before the blessing, and might or might not be included.
** I’m not a physician or other health professional. If you have any health issues you’d like me to include, I’m happy to add them – but please remember that a blessing by a random stranger on the internet does not replace a competent medical treatment. Just sayin’…

Hi Regine,
I would also like a blessing for my health and on my exercise regimen. I turn 45 this week and my wife and I just changed our workout program… we had done Pilates for over ten years, my wife longer, and switched to a gym where we can take some different classes -basically getting more bang for buck and access to other tools & classes than what we were paying for Pilates. Anyway, health is on my mind and looking to switch up my exercise regimen in a beneficial way.
Thank you very much!
Regine says
Hey Justin,
Gladly, and you‘re very welcome. Kudos to you for sticking to an exercise regime! 🙂

Greetings from the Nickel, Regine! Please put us on your blessing list for Wednesday. 🙂
Vicki may be coming up on the end of her career as a librarian, due to internal office politics. At age 57, she’s not in a good position to find another job as desirable as the one she may leave behind. May I ask for a blessing on her specifically to help her navigate through this turbulent time at work, and ask that her situation will resolve itself in whatever path is in her best interest?
Thanks, and may you be blessed as well!
Valerie, Trevor, Shirleen, Vanessa, and Vicki
Regine says
Hi Valerie,
Welcome back, and of course! Please tell Vicki I wish her all the best and that things will work out in her favour,
Regine

Hello, Regine,
Thanks again for your faithfulness in doing this.
I’m in the midst of moving out. Should be living full time at my new place within a few days, with just a few trips back to finish things. I’ve rented a truck. and I have been carrying lots of boxes and furniture for the past few days.
So, I would welcome a blessing, focusing on helping me to stay calm and physically healthy amidst all this major change and exertion. Thanks.
*OHC*
Regine says
Hi OHC,
Thanks for coming back so faithfully and giving me a chance to practice! 🙂
I wish you well in your new place, and new part of your life, and hope you‘ll have a good start to it,
Regine
