BRN Statement in support of our Asian, Asian American, Pacific Islander (AAPI) community

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 Carol Cano -- December 5th 2021 @ 1:00pm US Pacific Time

Reclaiming your Own Original Medicine: The Season of Letting-go as Practice of Self-preservation

Indigenous societies recognize individuals holding our personal power as original medicine. The shadow of our false self is purified as we strengthen our authentic self through the practice of coming home to our truth and power. The teachings of the Buddha and indigenous wisdom build this foundation of truth, trust and love.
