Applying Buddhist Practices to Recovery: What I Learned from Skiing with a Little Buddha Wisdom
Warren, Jane
Journal of Addictions & Offender Counseling, v33 n1 p34-47 Apr 2012
The author describes how 5 Buddhist practices--enlightenment, compassion, acceptance, mindfulness/meditation, and the spiritual community--can serve as a foundation for an integrated recovery model that incorporates numerous perspectives from the 12-step program of Alcoholics Anonymous. An application of the model illustrates how it is applied to real-life recovery. (Contains 1 figure.)
