# Essene Blessing Walk
https://ecosophia.dreamwidth.org/208136.html
The Essene Blessing Walk is a marvelous healing tool. We heal ourselves as we continue to practice this technique, and we send healing energy to others they can use to heal themselves.
We recommend you learn this technique step by step. Practice each step until it becomes a part of you and then proceed to the next step. Twenty-one days is the traditional period to take for each step, assuming that the Blessing Walk is performed once a day. This is a good period of time to spend on each step because in twenty-one days we build a positive habit and replace an old negative one that no longer serves us.
# The Blessing Walk - Step One
Dress comfortably. Choose a place where you will encounter people. Choose a length of time for your walk from a few minutes to an hour or more. Be comfortable. Choose a time, go to the place, and start walking at whatever pace you choose for yourself.
As you walk, pay attention to the people who come into your awareness. Smile. Send them a telepathic message, a blessing. Make up your own blessing. It doesn’t matter what your blessing is. Just say it in your mind and feel it in your heart. Send that blessing to the person in your awareness at the time. For example, you could quietly say inside your mind, something like this:
1. I offer you my blessing.
2. May blessings be upon you.
3. May your life be easier.
4. May God bless you.
5. May abundance flow your way.
6. May joy and happiness be with you.
7. May Peace be with you.
Look at a person. Smile. Send them a heartfelt blessing telepathically. Use your own words. Smile. Continue walking and blessing those who come into your awareness. Do this as long as you want and as often as you want.
Remember that you are not forcing a blessing on the people you encounter. You are offering the blessing. They have the right to refuse it. There are people who do not want your blessing. There are people who do not want abundance, joy, happiness, or peace. You can see this in the way they avoid these things, and pursue courses of action that help them avoid these things. You do not have the right to force them to accept a blessing they do not want. Keep this in mind. The words “I offer” in the first example, and the word “May” in the others, is intended to convey this.
With practice, you develop a blessing aura around yourself and that blessing will radiate outwards to everyone you encounter who is willing to receive it.
## The Blessing Walk - Step Two
As you continue to walk comfortably, sending heartfelt telepathic blessings to those who come into your field of awareness, become aware of the animals and insects who also come into your awareness. These creatures are children of the Divine just as we are. They made a decision to come into this world at this time for reasons we may never understand.
But whatever the reason, we and they are all a part of the same Divine. The difference between us is that we have the power to destroy them. Whenever we do that without good reason we destroy a little part of ourselves. We are all brothers and sisters and the Divine loves each of us unconditionally. Ponder these things as you continue your Essene Blessing Walk.
Send the animals and insects a blessing too. They deserve to have an easier life with more love and consideration just as humans do. Smile at them and send them a heart-felt telepathic blessing too as you continue to send blessings to all humans you see.
With practice, you develop a blessing aura around yourself and send that blessing, that prayer, telepathically to the people and animals you see, hear or feel.
## The Blessing Walk - Step Three
As you continue to walk comfortably, blessing the people and animals you meet along the way, become aware of the plants, trees and flowers that come into your awareness.
These living things made a conscious decision to be here in this physical reality just as we did. And as our purpose is unknown to them, so theirs is unknown to us. And as chaos often disrupts our life, so are their lives also difficult at times.
Research has shown that prayer, and blessing is a form of prayer, helps people, animals and plants heal faster than without our prayers. So, as you become aware of flowers, plants and trees on your Blessing Walk, send them a heartfelt telepathic blessing too.
Then ponder this: Research has shown that people heal more completely, more quickly when they’re in the presence of plants and animals. Is it possible all these plants and animals are sending us a blessing and praying for us? Is it possible these plants and animals know we’re all brothers and sisters? That we’re all here in this lifetime to help one another?
Ponder these things as you continue sending blessings to all plants, animals and humans that come within your presence on your Essene Blessing Walk. With practice, you develop a blessing aura around yourself and send that blessing, that prayer, telepathically to the people, plants and animals you see, hear or feel.
## The Blessing Walk - Step Four
As you continue to walk comfortably, blessing the people, plants and animals that come into your awareness, allow the awareness of rocks, dirt, buildings, roads and other things to come into your awareness. All of these things are a part of the Divine just as much as you and I.
Things don’t seem to have the emotional baggage plants, animals and humans have. Things don’t seem to be affected by emotions but they do appear to store them. Our prayers and blessings don’t appear to heal things the way that prayer helps plants, animals and humans heal themselves. If we believe this appearance, however, we are mistaken. Our prayers and blessings do help everything in the Creation heal themselves.
As you become aware of things in your life, send them a heart-felt telepathic blessing. Over the course of several days or weeks, observe how the feelings of that thing or that place change, how the vibration there is more inviting. It seems that by blessing the things in our life, those things return a blessing to us and others.
Check it out for yourself. With practice, you develop a blessing aura around yourself and send that blessing, that prayer, telepathically to everything and everybody you see, hear or feel.
## The Blessing Walk - Continued
There are three more steps to be mastered in the Essene Blessing Walk. We recommend you master the first four steps first. Take some time after the twenty-one days you spend on the fourth step to review the material you have already studied, and make sure you have learned it.
Practice them until they become a part of who you are. Then proceed to learn the next three steps. When you know you’re ready, please proceed.
## The Blessing Walk - Step Five
As you continue to smile and send a heartfelt telepathic blessing to the people, animals, plants and things that enter your awareness during your Blessing Walk, take a look inside yourself. Have these walks been a blessing to you? Are you happier? Do you feel better about yourself?
There’s a fundamental Universal Law at work here. What you give away, you receive. Some people call it the Golden Rule. But by whatever name, the law works just the same. When you give blessings to everybody and everything, you will be blessed, your life will be easier, you will be happier and filled with joy more often.
That’s the way it works.
One of the basic principles of the Universe is that there’s a reason for everything. The Divine plan includes all things, all plants, all animals, all humans and everything in the Creation. There is a purpose for each and every one, for each and everything. We all have a purpose.
The Essenes generally believe our primary purpose is to learn to love more and more. The more we love, the more we are loved. The more we love, the closer we are with the all-loving Divine. The more we love, the easier our path becomes. The paths of those around us also becomes easier.
As you continue your Essene Blessing Walk, please ponder these things until you have a deep understanding of how your life is changing and improving as you love more and more.
## The Blessing Walk - Step Six
As you continue to smile and send a heart-felt telepathic blessing to the people, animals, plants and things that enter your awareness during your Blessing Walk, change your way of thinking.
Instead of doing these things only during your Blessing Walk, do them anytime. You may smile and send a heartfelt telepathic blessing to anything and anybody at any time. You can gradually change your way of thinking or you can just change.
This process of starting small and adding more and more things or expanding into more and more parts of your day is called “becoming established.” When the process becomes a part of you, a part of your daily routine, your day-to-day activities, you’re said to have become “established” in this practice. This same process is used to become established in prayer, contemplation or meditation.
## The Blessing Walk - Step Seven
As you continue to smile and send a heartfelt telepathic blessing to the people, animals, plants and things that enter your awareness during your Blessing Walk, change your way of behaving.
Instead of thinking about becoming established in blessing everyone and everything, just do it. Make it a habit. Don’t even think about it, just do it. Smile and telepathically send a blessing to everyone and everything all the time.
Instead of thinking about becoming established in prayer, contemplation or meditation, just do it. Make it a habit. Don’t even think about it, just do it. Communicate with the Divine about making life easier for everyone and everything (pray). Ponder the possibilities of your life, the qualities of the Divine and everything in this world (contemplate). Meditate all the time and go about your life at the same time.
* * * * *
It takes a great deal of time and practice to finish the entire set of seven steps and become established in the Essene Blessing Walk. You do not need to complete the sequence in order to proceed to the next stage of your Essene training. Once you have made the Essene Blessing Walk a regular part of your life, and are beginning to work through the steps given above, you may proceed to the second Candidate technique, the Essene Healing Breath.
