Refuge Recovery is a transformative program dedicated to healing addiction through the teachings of Buddhism. Founded by Noah Levine, this non-theistic approach emphasizes the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path as essential tools for recovery. By focusing on the concepts of craving and suffering, Refuge Recovery provides a systematic method to understand and overcome addiction.

The organization offers a variety of resources including in-person and online meetings, meditation practices, workshops, and retreats, designed to foster community and support among participants. Audio meditations, scripts, and written exercises assist individuals in exploring the roots of their addiction, while the Refuge Recovery book serves as a comprehensive guide that integrates personal stories and practical advice for recovery. Whether through participating in communal gatherings or engaging in daily mindfulness practices, Refuge Recovery aims to create a nurturing environment for all seeking freedom from addiction.

Their mission is rooted in compassion, allowing individuals to navigate the path to lasting well-being and happiness
