Buddhist Wisdom on Addiction: Voices from the Recovery Summit
“The world needs in the midst of the current addiction crisis. It's that beautiful that we just all breathe the same breath and breathe out into the same universe.”
Picture yourself at the Eastbay Meditation Center in Oakland, CA, surrounded by a diverse group of individuals committed to recovery. This episode of the Buddhist Recovery Network Podcast brings you into the heart of the Regional Buddhist Recovery Summit. Here, you'll hear from Jean Tuller, Kevin Griffin, Vimalasara, Stephen Teirney, Agusta Hopkins, and Carol EBMC as they tackle the pressing issue of addiction with compassion and insight.

If you've ever felt isolated or misunderstood in your journey, this discussion offers a sense of belonging and acceptance. Tune in to discover how Buddhist principles can create a supportive community for those seeking recovery.
