In the process of blessing, we are opening the channel for Divine Love, opening our hearts to goodness and graciousness. We are entering into sacred space, sharing in the sweet refreshment of loving-kindness. “You Are a Blessing” draws inspiration from the beloved Priestly Blessing known in both Jewish and Christian ceremonies. In this book, bountiful in original paintings and blessings, Paulette Rochelle-Levy, a psychotherapist, poet, and painter, brings new life to the ancient prayer.

When “You Are a Blessing” is used in a group such as a Shabbat dinner or a healing circle, there is often a response of calm. To bless and be blessed raises the consciousness of all participants. This book is a needed and necessary antidote to the painful suffering on our planet in this heart-aching time.
