Talk given by Dr. John Woodall on April 16, 2022. This talk explores the nature of healing and the powers of the Manifestation of God in that healing and our relationship to Him. Meanings held within the structure and style of the prayer are offered and speculation even about future Manifestations held within the Text. All to help us along the path of grace, guidance, healing and forgiveness. Dr. Woodall is a psychiatrist, formerly on the faculty of Harvard Medical School with special expertise in posttraumatic stress disorder, resilience and treatment resistant depression. He was Director of the State Department refugee relief effort in the Balkans after the war there, and the Convener of the “Resilient Responses to Social Crisis Working Group” at Harvard University. At the request of the Mayor’s Office of New York City, he developed and implemented a citywide resilience-building program for children after 9/11 that was also implemented in New Orleans and Mississippi after Hurricane Katrina and in northern Uganda. Since the Newtown tragedy, he has launched a series of resilience building efforts there. He is Medical Director of Synergy Health in Newtown where he specializes in brain health, treatment resistant depression and resilience.
