<p>We focus on the Buddhist and mindfulness teachings, as well as practical actions to overcome addiction, calm the mind, and heal the heart.</p>
<p>We draw on the text <a href="https://www.windhorsepublications.com/product/eight-step-recovery-using… Step Recovery: Using The Buddha’s Teachings to Overcome Addiction</em></a>, pioneered by leading experts from our tradition: <a href="https://www.valeriemason-john.com/eight-step-recovery/">Vimalasara Mason-John</a> and Dr. Paramabandhu Groves.</p>
<p>Eight-step recovery can benefit people in 12-step recovery programs and people new to recovery.</p>
<p><strong>The meetings are open to everyone</strong>, Buddhists and non-Buddhists. Eight-step recovery is peer-led, and supported by Dana, a Buddhist tradition of generosity. Please contribute what you can afford, and please know that your presence is the most important contribution to the community.</p>
