    Description

    In this episode I explore how to apply non-theistic Buddhism to some of the seemingly theistic principles of 12 step recovery. I explore how to change habits using the truth of karma, anicca, and dukkha. Some Buddhist recovery resources include: Recovery Dharma is a Buddhist recovery communityKevin Griffin has books and courses on Buddhism and the 12 stepsValerie Mason John has created 8 Step Recovery

    A weekly podcast exploring early Buddhist teachings and how they apply to 21st century life. Kate Spina is trained to share Buddhist teachings in the Theravada lineage. IG: @towardlight108www.towardlight.netinfo@towardlight.netToward Light is committed to continuing the tradition of the Buddha by making Early Buddhist teachings accessible to all who are interested in them. We offer multiple tools to help people cultivate and maintain a meditation practice and a spiritually-oriented life. Toward Light was founded to fill a gap in Early Buddhist meditation offerings, which have often been passed down through patriarchal lineage, and do not always take feminist and 21st century perspectives into account.
