If we focus on generous and loving thoughts, we will become generous and loving people.
Imagine finding a way to blend mindfulness with the traditional 12-step recovery process. That's exactly what Kevin Griffin, a renowned Buddhist author and teacher, discusses in this episode of 'The One You Feed'. Host Eric Zimmer dives into Griffin's unique approach to addiction treatment, which has made him a leading figure in the mindful recovery movement.
Griffin's groundbreaking book, 'One Breath at a Time', was one of the first to explore this innovative blend, and his latest work, 'A Burning Desire: Dharma God and The Path of Recovery', continues to push boundaries by examining the concept of a higher power through a Buddhist lens. In their conversation, Zimmer and Griffin explore how our thoughts shape who we are, the application of the Buddha's teachings in daily life, and the practical aspects of spirituality.
They delve into the five precepts and their relevance in today's world, and discuss why true happiness doesn't come from material possessions. Griffin also shares how meditation can ground us in the present moment and help us detach from harmful thoughts. This episode is perfect for anyone curious about how mindfulness can enhance traditional recovery methods or looking for new ways to overcome self-limiting beliefs.
Whether you're on your own recovery journey or supporting someone who is, Griffin's insights offer valuable perspectives on blending spirituality with practical recovery strategies.
