«Трезвость — это поиск нового образа жизни, который включает в себя участие там, где было отстранение.; щедрость там, где был эгоцентризм; сообщество, где была изоляция; радость там, где была горечь; trust where there was cynicism.”

– Кевин Гриффин, Одно дыхание за раз: Буддизм и Двенадцать Шагов

The Heart of Recovery is a meditation and discussion group with the purpose of bringing together the practice of meditation, the Shambhala and Buddhist teachings, и 12 Steps of recovery. We focus on sharing our experience while bringing together meditation practice with our individual paths of recovery from addiction.

The meeting is open to all, включая:

• Anyone interested in exploring the relationship of meditation to the recovery from addictive behaviors
• Практикующие буддисты любой традиции
• 12 Step practitioners from any program

We welcome all individuals who are committed to working with their addictive and compulsive behaviors. This group is open to anyone who is interested in exploring how the path of meditation and the path of recovery intersect.

No meditation experience is necessary, and brief meditation instruction is given at the start of each meeting. Новички изучат основные техники медитации, чтобы улучшить, не заменять, their own recovery program. Experienced meditators will discover new ways to deepen their current practice while supporting the group.

Meeting format includes:

• Sitting meditation instruction and practice
• A topic offering in the form of a brief share or reading by the facilitator
• Обсуждение и исследование членами группы
• Делимся личным опытом, сила, и надеюсь

No need to register and there is no charge for the meetings, but donations to the operating costs of the Center are welcome.
