October Spiritual Theme – Healing

Our Monthly Spiritual Themes guide our Chalice Circles, which are small, intentional groups of members and friends that gather for spiritual enrichment through personal sharing. For more information on Chalice Circles, please email Linda Benson at chalicecircles@uuprinceton.org.

Our Chalice Circle thoughts and questions around the theme of “Healing” this month are:

“Healing takes courage, and we all have courage, even if we have to dig a little to find it.” ⎯ Tori Amos

How much courage does healing take for you?

 

“Healing may not be so much about getting better, as about letting go of everything that isn’t you – all of the expectations, all of the beliefs – and becoming who you are.” ⎯ Rachel Naomi Remen

Have you ever experienced yourself becoming who you are by being healed? Can you share the experience?

 

“Humor is healing.” ⎯ Brad Garrett

What kind of humor heals you?

 

“Our sorrows and wounds are healed only when we touch them with compassion.” ⎯ Buddha

Do you agree with this statement? If so/if not, why?
