Taking Action: Becky’s Insightful Talk on Step 3 at the Clouds in Water Zen Center
What happens when you combine the wisdom of Buddhism with the practical steps of addiction recovery? Becky’s talk at the Clouds in Water Zen Center offers a glimpse into this unique blend. Held in March 2012, this retreat focused on merging the 12 Steps with Buddhist teachings, and Becky's insights into Step 3 are both profound and practical.
She dives into the concept of 'turning our will and our lives over to the care of a higher power', a cornerstone of Step 3, and explores how Buddhist principles like mindfulness and surrender can enhance this pivotal step in recovery. Whether you're new to the 12 Steps, a seasoned practitioner, or simply curious about how these two paths intersect, Becky's talk provides a fresh perspective on taking action in your recovery journey.
Her approach is both compassionate and grounded, making complex ideas accessible and actionable. This episode is perfect for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of recovery through the lens of Buddhism.
