Recovery Dharma
Recovery Dharma is a peer-led movement and community that is unified by the potential in each of us to recover and find freedom from the suffering of addiction. We use the Buddhist practices of meditation, self-inquiry, wisdom, compassion, and community as tools for recovery and healing. We welcome anyone who is looking to find freedom from suffering, whether it's caused by substance use or process addictions like codependency, sex, gambling, eating disorders, shopping, work, technology, or any obsessive or habitual pattern. We approach recovery from a place of individual and collective empowerment and we support each other as we walk this path of recovery together.
MEETING TIMES:
Our typical schedule is meeting at 5:45 on Tuesdays and at 10:30 on Saturdays at the Coralville library. Our email is recoverydharma.easterniowa@gmail.com.
