Buddhist Recovery Group

Our Buddhist Recovery Group meets every Monday evening from 6:30 pm–8:00 pm at the Friend’s Meeting House located at 890 57th Street, Sacramento, CA 95819. “Newcomers” and “old timers” alike are welcome to attend. The solution to craving and addictive behaviors will be explored using the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path. Registration is not required nor are there any dues or fees. However, to cover rent and literature we will pass the “hat.” We will be reading from Noah Levine’s “Refuge Recovery: A Buddhist path to recovery from addiction.”

Sit & Dharma Talk, “Working with Fear & Anxiety,” with Community Mentor Diane Wilde

,

October 8, 2015, 7 – 9pm. “Working with Fear and Anxiety” with Community Mentor Diane Wilde

Physical as well as mental fear is a discomforting presence. The fear of loss, the fear of physical pain, the fear of the unknown… are just a few of the multitude of fears and anxieties that we will experience in this lifetime. We continually look for a place of safety where fear is not present. Anything to gain and keep a sense of security and keep the reality of this impermanent world at bay. As Woody Allen said, “I don’t like to be afraid—it scares me.” Yet it is possible to learn and understand how fear manifests in our lives, and even begin to become comfortable with this challenging state of mind, both in everyday life and during meditation. Please join the discussion.
