2009-03-13 – Introduction to Naikan Inventory – Based on Gregg Krech’s Book – led by Judith (March 2009 – 12 Steps and Buddhism Retreat – Clouds in Water Zen Center)

Imagine diving deep into your own mind to uncover the layers of your past actions and relationships. In this episode, recorded at a 12 Steps and Buddhism retreat in March 2009, Judith Ragir introduces listeners to the Naikan Inventory, a reflective practice based on Gregg Krech's book. Held at the Clouds in Water Zen Center in St. Paul, Minnesota, this talk offers a unique blend of introspection and recovery techniques.

Judith, with her extensive background in Zen teachings and over 40 years in recovery, guides you through the principles of Naikan. This Japanese method of self-reflection helps individuals examine their lives by asking three fundamental questions: What have I received from others? What have I given to others? What troubles and difficulties have I caused others? Through these questions, Judith encourages a deeper understanding of oneself and one's actions, fostering both personal growth and recovery.

If you're looking for a way to blend mindfulness with practical recovery steps, this episode offers valuable insights that can help you on your journey.
