Recovery Dharma Vermont
Welcome to Burlington, Vermont's Page for All Things Recovery Dharma
This site is a resource for those interested in Recovery Dharma. Our mission is to support recovery through Buddhist practices and community. Whether you're new to Recovery Dharma or have been practicing for years, this space is here to help you connect, learn, and heal.
What is Recovery Dharma?
Recovery Dharma is a peer-led, non-theistic approach to recovery that uses Buddhist principles as a foundation for healing from addiction and suffering. We believe in the power of mindfulness, meditation, community, and personal responsibility. There’s no dogma, just an invitation to investigate your own experience and walk a path of wisdom and compassion - together.
Our practices are grounded in the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path. This site is a hub for Vermont-based offerings and a living resource for anyone interested in this way of recovery.
“This program leads to recovery from addiction to substances like alcohol and drugs and from process addictions like sex, gambling, pornography, technology, work, codependence, shopping, eating, media, self-harm, lying, stealing, and obsessive worrying.”
