Craving causes suffering, addiction causes suffering. So they talk a lot about the feeling tone right. It's more of a secular path, whereas, like aa, would be the linear, the steps they follow, the four noble truths, which is pretty simple: there is suffering, there is a cause for suffering, there is an end to suffering and there is a path that leads to that end of suffering.
Picture yourself sitting in a cozy coffee shop, where the conversation is as warm as the brew in your cup. In this episode of the Sober.Coffee Podcast, hosts Mike R and Glenn H are joined by Tori, a seasoned substance abuse counselor, to discuss an alternative path to sobriety known as Refuge Recovery. Unlike the traditional AA route, Refuge Recovery is rooted in Buddhist principles and offers a secular approach to overcoming addiction.
Tori shares her personal journey with the program, detailing how it leverages the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path to guide individuals toward a life free from suffering and addiction. The conversation delves into how craving and addiction are intertwined, causing immense suffering, and how Refuge Recovery aims to break this cycle.
If you're curious about different recovery methods or know someone who might benefit from a fresh perspective, this episode offers valuable insights into finding your unique recipe for sobriety.
