SUMMARY:Transforming the Heart
DESCRIPTION:April BRN Academy\nSUNDAY April 5\, 2026 at 10AM PST  \nWith BRN Board President Walt Opie \nTransforming the Heart\nBoth Buddhist practice and recovery from addiction point to an inner transformation of the heart. As practicing addicts\, our hearts may have been pretty shut down\, which we may not even realize until it starts to open in recovery\, perhaps quite slowly at first. One of the wonderful things about Buddhist practice is that we learn we can train the heart through certain practices like lovingkindness (metta). Then we realize we’re not practicing Buddhist recovery for ourselves alone–we’re also learning how to benefit others. In fact\, the Buddha encouraged us to be a refuge for all beings. \n\n\nMore About the Academy \nThe Academy has invited some of the leading teachers in the field of Buddhist recovery. On the first Sunday of every month for an hour each teacher will explore the sharp edges of suffering through the lens of the Buddhist Teachings. \nThe Academy brings together teachers from different Buddhist lineages and approaches. Themes like addiction\, alcoholism\, depression\, stinking thinking and compulsive behaviors will be explored. \nDuring this event we will meditate\, listen to the teaching\, then have time for a Q & A at the end. \nDana\nThis event is offered freely\, but signing up with any donation helps support the Buddhist Recovery Network mission to promote the use of Buddhist teachings and practices to help people recover from the suffering caused by addictive behaviors . Your support will also allow us to connect with you and send you a reminder\, 24 hours and 1 hour before the event. \nZOOM LINK\nClick to Join via this Zoom Link  \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/87579202512?pwd=b3PXF6s4kd3HHgoqSeZNzNDhzdcYnw.1 \nMeeting ID: 875 7920 2512  and passcode: 414176
