Hey, Mongo. I'm just getting started on sobriety again. I've done cognitive behavioral therapy and AA in the past. (AA will be part of my program this time too)
That having been said, even though I am and always have been a Christian, I am finding some seriously powerful philosophy in Buddhist thought. It's amazing how much it strengthens the messages of so many other approaches. I'm almost forty years old and never had one second of meditation until I learned what it really means from one of my Dalai Lama books.
It may seem left field to many people, but it is worth a read.
