7/9/23 What is “Healing” Within a Sick Society?

Led by Peter Blachly

This reflection will be about the individual journey of healing from personal trauma. Peter Macdonald Blachly is the nephew of former long-time Brunswick UU members Daphne Holden, on his father’s side, and Dr. and Mrs. Peter Haughwout, on his mother’s side. His life-long quest for answers to life’s big questions has encompassed philosophy, religion, yoga, meditation, music, art, science, politics, and psychology. He is the author of many published articles and a memoir, “The Inner Circle – My Seventeen Years in the Cult of the American Sikhs (Book One)”. Peter is a Trauma Recovery Coach, and is in the middle of writing “Book Two” of his memoir, tracking his own search for authenticity in the journey of recovery from a religious cult. Today’s hymn lyrics were written by Daphne’s grandfather, Johnson Oatman, Jr., and set to music this year by Peter.
