One way of thinking about this is that happiness is actually a natural state, that when we all that's involved in finding happiness or, or even more simply, a pleasant feeling, in the present moment all that's involved is to let go of the things that obscure that.
Breathing is something we all do, but have you ever considered its power in healing addiction? The Buddhist Recovery Network podcast dives deep into this fascinating topic in their episode 'The Breath of Recovery'. This episode takes a thoughtful look at the Anapanasati Sutta, a Buddhist text that highlights four stages of breath awareness and their transformative potential.
The host discusses how focusing on your breath can help manage the energy tied to addiction and trauma, offering a path to healing that feels both ancient and refreshingly new. The episode also touches on the idea that happiness is our natural state, often buried under layers of pain and addiction. Letting go, the host suggests, is key to uncovering this happiness.
Listeners are gently reminded to take things one breath at a time, making this episode a soothing guide for anyone on a recovery journey. If you're curious about how something as simple as breathing can make a profound difference in your life, this episode is worth a listen.
