What happens when the timeless wisdom of Buddhism meets the practical steps of addiction recovery? Judith Ragir, a seasoned Zen teacher and long-time member of the recovery community, brings these two worlds together in an engaging episode. With 47 years of sobriety under her belt, Judith offers a fresh perspective on Step 2 of the 12-Step program: believing in a power greater than oneself to restore sanity.
But instead of the traditional Judeo-Christian framework, she translates this concept into a Buddhist non-theistic view. Intrigued yet? You should be. Judith dives deep into ideas like 'no solid self', interdependence, and cause and effect, weaving them seamlessly into the recovery journey. She emphasizes the importance of aligning with your own values, making mindful choices, and most importantly, finding trust in the process.
Whether you're new to Buddhism or a seasoned practitioner, this episode offers something valuable for everyone on the path to healing and transformation.
