Every Friday, 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Learn the basics of Buddhism and how Buddhism can help your recovery.

Participants will also receive instruction on mindfulness meditation. There will be a brief, informal dharma talk and open group discussion.

There are usually two meditation sessions of 10 minutes each.  Meditators are invited to bring their own cushions/mats.  Chairs and two couches are available for those who wish to sit and meditate.

The group encourages open discussion relating to spirituality, mental health, and recovery (from alcohol, drugs, eating disorders, etc).  Meetings may have pre-selected themes, but all are encouraged to share openly.  Participants may also wish to bring spiritually-oriented readings to share with the group.

These meetings are informal in structure and approach.

Please note: Buddhism, Meditation & Recovery meetings are not 12-step meetings, but rather these meetings are intended to be educational experiences for growth, sharing and learning to support those who are committed to enriching and exploring a spiritual path.

EVERYONE IS WELCOME—ALL YOU NEED TO BRING IS AN OPEN MIND!

3080 Yonge Street, suite 5016 at Yonge Lawrence Centre for Counselling and Consulting
