A fresh resource to help those in recovery from addiction find their own spiritual path through the Buddhist practice of mindfulness.
For those of us in recovery, Mindfulness and the 12 Steps offers a fresh approach to developing our own spiritual path through the Buddhist practice of mindfulness, or bringing one’s awareness to focus on the present moment. We can revisit each of the Twelve Steps, exploring the interplay of ideas between mindfulness and Twelve Step traditions–from the idea of living “one day at a time” to the emphasis on prayer and meditation–and learn to incorporate mindfulness into our path toward lifelong sobriety.
Through reflections, questions for inquiry, and stories from Buddhist teachers and others who practice mindfulness in recovery, Mindfulness and the 12 Steps will help us awaken new thinking and insights into what it means to live fully–body, mind, and spirit–in the here and now.

A Transformative Pathway from Suffering to Truly Living
Living in active addiction takes us out of the present. And living in the moment is unknown territory, especially when it comes to finding the joy in simply being alive. In Mindfulness and the 12 Steps, Thérèse Jacobs-Stewart encourages you to settle in and make yourself at home as she shares easy to practice tips to help you incorporate mindfulness into your life. Through learning to live in the present moment, you’ll begin to connect with the here and now for lifelong recovery.
