12 Steps on Buddha's Path is the extraordinary spiritual journey of a woman once
trapped in the downward spiral of alcoholism. It is an inspiring firsthand account of what
happens when life
seems hopeless, and the miracle of finding out that it's anything but.
The author describes her own journey of recovery from alcoholism - an astonishing passage
through strange and frightening territory - and marks out the path that allowed her to
emerge from that darkness as a wise and compassionate person living a life that is joyous
and free. This book is a powerful and enriching synthesis of the 12-Step recovery programs
and the Noble Eightfold Path of Buddhism. It is sure to appeal to anyone touched by
addiction, including those looking for new ways to understand and work with the
tried-and-true 12-Step system. Tens of millions of Americans suffer from Alcoholism and
other forms of dependence, and 12 Steps on Buddha's Path offers hope and help for
any one of them.
Though writing anonymously out of deep respect for 12-Step policies, the author is in fact
a well-known professional author, deeply involved in the recovery and meditation
communities.
