Living mindfully, people in recovery can learn skills that allow them to be the people they want to be. Instead of being prisoners of harmful habits, they can consciously create healthy behaviors to support their recovery and live their lives free from active addiction. Former Buddhist monk John Bruna outlines the seven skills of living mindfully in recovery?values, attention, wisdom, equanimity, compassion, loving-kindness, and action?utilizing lessons, meditations, reflections, and other daily practices.
John Bruna is a counselor, educator, and mindfulness and spiritual teacher. He has been in recovery since 1984. In 2005 he was ordained as a Buddhist monk in the Tibetan tradition through the Gaden Shartse Monastery in India. After more than six years of monastic life, he returned to life as a layperson, and in 2012 became a Certified Cultivating Emotional Balance Mindfulness Teacher. Currently, Bruna is the director of Way of Compassion Foundation and cofounder of the Mindful Life Program.
