The Truth of Addiction

The Buddha's first teaching offers a way out of suffering. He called out two futile addictions: one to pleasure, the other to self-punishment. The solution? The Middle Way. Join the Recovery Monday Team to explore the Four Noble Truths, suffering, craving, an end to clinging, and the path.

This is a retreat for people in all forms of recovery: alcohol, food, drugs, shopping, TV, internet, gambling, depression, sex and love addiction and other compulsive addictive behaviours.
