Abstract

Melissa Carey too, negotiates different (and sometimes contested) worlds, moving between a colonized world, te ao Māori (the Māori world) and the spirit world, te
pō. In The transformative experiences of cultural healing: An autoethnography of Kaupapa Māori, Melissa takes us with her as she heals a rupture she didn’t know existed. Raised in Australia and now in her mid-thirties, family secrets start to unravel and Melissa discovers 'a brown secret hidden beneath [her] white skin'. Her forgotten ancestors call her to action, and so begins her journey of healing. This chapter locates the inexplicable and the haunting within cultures that seemingly rely upon certainty and surety.

KeywordsKaupapa Maori, healing, health, autoethnography
ANZSRC Field of Research 2020500318. Philosophy of specific cultures (incl. comparative philosophy)
