21-day Meditation Challenge

When I first started my journey of recovery in 2010, I was pretty much a giant ball of anxiety. No matter what I tried, I couldn’t stop the racing thoughts. I was hearing a lot about “being present” from other people in recovery, but my mind was constantly in the past dwelling on where I went wrong, or in the future trying to figure out how I was going to make it all better. I couldn’t really grasp the concept of present moment awareness, or how to even attain something like that.

Three Feet From Gold

Early into my own recovery process, a friend of mine recommended a book for me to read. It had been recommended to him as a book that would change his life, and he recommended it the same way to me. To this day, I think both of us would credit this book as one of the most important books we have ever read.
