New Weekly Buddhist Recovery Meetings

Buddhist Recovery Network is pleased to announce that it will be offering meetings every Wednesday of the month, from 5:30pm to 6:30pm Pacific Time.

More Information

The Buddhist Recovery Network is in solidarity with the BIMPOC populations.

We will not stay quiet in the face of public modern day lynchings of Black and Brown Bodies.
We will not be silent over the racial injustices that are prevalent in the USA, Canada, UK and many other countries in Europe.
In moving forward we want to be an organization that has Diversity, Inclusion and Equity at the heart of our mission.
We aspire to support recovery groups that prioritize the needs of Black and Indigenous People of Color
We will work to support creating safer spaces where people from these and other marginalized populations are safe and welcome in all recovery meetings.

Buddhist Recovery Academy

Next BRN Academy teaching with Rachel Lewis -- March 7th 2021 @ 1:00pm US Pacific Time

Showing Up for Life As It Is

So much of our lives can be driven by unconscious reactivity: the endless struggle to avoid painful or negative feelings. With mindfulness meditation, we can develop the skill of patience and presence, so that we can experience calm and contentment even in the midst of all of the challenges of our lives.
