Noah Levine MA Set To Appear As Special Guest To Discuss New Book And A Buddhist's Approach To Recovery At Avalon Malibu Treatment Center
(PRWEB) April 29, 2014 -- Noah Levine MA is set to appear as a special guest speaker at the Avalon Malibu Treatment Center on June 26, 2014 from 6:30-9pm. The highly sought after author will be on hand to discuss his new book titled, "Refuge Recovery - A Buddhist Path To Recovering From Addiction." The book imparts a Buddhist course and method for treating issues related to addiction.
Avalon Malibu offers a new paradigm in treatment philosophy, by integrating recovery and healing. The ‘Avalon Malibu Sanctuary Model’ provides adults the opportunity for reflection through introspection, education and mindfulness practice. Avalon Malibu integrates mind, body and spirit into a realistic plan for long-term recovery from problems associated with substance use disorders, psychiatric disorders, and the co-occurring psychological problems that often accompany them. Avalon Malibu is a place where respect, safety, compassion, and hospitality are extended to all who seek health and healing.
Buddhism provides a non-theistic, divine approach, which more often appeals to discerning atheist addicts. "Refuge Recovery" is a course that can work in combination with, or as an alternative to the twelve steps. The Buddhist way of treatment, assists people in developing compassion and insight via meditation, abandonment and sensible actions that include generosity, service, forgiveness and amends.
