In this episode of the Buddhist Recovery Network Podcast, Chris Beaudry opens up about his journey through anger, loss, and trauma. Chris, a fourth-generation farmer and mental health advocate, shares his story of growing up in a turbulent household and the struggles that led him to view anger as his first addiction. He talks about how this emotion provided a temporary sense of safety amidst chaos, which eventually spiraled into alcoholism during his teenage years.
Chris’s narrative takes us from the depths of despair to finding solace in Buddhist practices and regenerative agriculture. His experience with a tragic bus accident and the subsequent grief led him to embrace Buddhism more deeply, reshaping his life and relationships. Chris’s reflections on healing, both personal and agricultural, offer valuable lessons for anyone grappling with their own demons. This episode is a testament to resilience and the transformative power of mindfulness and compassion.
