Tao and Recovery: Buddy C.'s 20-Minute Meditation on Finding Inner Peace
“If you find yourself today at a crossroads and you just don't know what to do next, I want you to look around, ask your higher power who you can help, and when I do that, invariably someone shows up or I see a situation I did not see before, and it gives me direction on what I need to do when I take the time to help someone else.”
Are you curious about how Taoism can play a role in your alcohol recovery journey? In this episode of 'Sober Meditations', Buddy C. brings you the sixth meditation in his 'Tao and Recovery' series. This 20-minute session is all about calming the mind and connecting with a higher power, a concept that Buddy found much more approachable through Taoism.
As someone who has walked the challenging path of addiction, Buddy shares his personal experiences and the tools that have helped him stay sober since 2008. He opens up about his struggles, including relapsing multiple times before truly surrendering to the idea of powerlessness over alcohol. Buddy's open-minded approach to recovery is evident as he discusses how Taoist principles have made the concept of a higher power more relatable and less intimidating for him.

Whether you're new to meditation or a seasoned practitioner, Buddy's gentle guidance offers a moment of peace and introspection. So, take a break from your busy day, find a quiet spot, and let Buddy C. lead you through this calming meditation.
You'll find that these moments of stillness can be a powerful tool in your journey to sobriety.
