  • Recovery To Self

    Teacher: Warren Shaw
    Cost: 2 days accommodation + R350 surcharge
    Dates:

    warren shawWhy do we need to Recover to our true Self - to our Buddha nature? Often we may find ourselves using various substances or strategies addictively which can include everything from food, alcohol, recreational or prescription drugs, social media, or where we are in abusive relationships. When this affects our daily lives and more importantly the relationships that mean the most to us, we have lost our true nature of self.
    In this retreat we will explore the Buddha’s teaching on the cause of suffering (Samudaya), the origin of suffering - our attachment, our craving and ignorance that generate negative karma. We will discover that there is a solution in the Four Noble Truths which results in the end of suffering (Nirhodha) and the possibility of achieving liberation (Nirvana) from the cycle of suffering and the rebirth to our true self (Samsara). Our karma and shortcomings can be removed only by ourselves. We are personally responsible for their creation, and we are responsible for their elimination. This retreat will be helpful to people in need of recovery and speaks to any aspect of ourselves that needs to heal.

    Warren Shaw holds an Addiction Treatment accreditation from Yale. His journey to recovery started at the BRC. He has had long term sobriety and is passionate about helping others to deal with any addiction that may be causing them suffering. He also runs workshops with his wife Natascha at the BRC exploring the nature of a successful, happy relationship. They live in Johannesburg, with Smokey Joe their Dachshun and travel extensively around our beautiful country and enjoy the gifts of Recovery.
