What am I getting from this activity when I flip the? You know, when I go in the bathroom, when I look at my phone, am I even present? That's kind of where some, that's where I begin, with people and with myself.
Deborah Grace and Vimalasara dive into the complex world of sex and love addiction, offering listeners a fresh perspective through the lens of Buddhist principles. In this engaging conversation, they unravel how mindfulness can be a powerful tool in addressing these often-overlooked issues. Ever wondered why certain behaviors keep pulling you back? Deborah and Vimalasara suggest that becoming more aware of your actions and the emotions behind them is key.
They emphasize the importance of slowing down and truly understanding what drives these habits and how they impact you on multiple levels. The episode also touches on harm reduction and abstinence, highlighting that everyone has their own 'alcohols' to deal with.

This summit promises to be a rich resource for anyone interested in Buddhist recovery, offering a chance to connect with a supportive community and gain deeper insights into overcoming addiction. If you're curious about how Buddhist teachings can help you navigate the challenges of sex and love addiction, this episode is a must-listen.
