Story4.5 out of 5 stars 178
As with many self-destructive kids, Noah Levine's search for meaning led him first to punk rock, drugs, drinking, and dissatisfaction. But the search didn't end there. Having clearly seen the uselessness of drugs and violence, Noah looked for positive ways to channel his rebellion against what he saw as the lies of society. Fueled by his anger at so much injustice and suffering, Levine now uses that energy and the practice of Buddhism to awaken his natural wisdom and compassion.

In the Buddhist tradition, "dharma" means "truth" or "the way things are". This audiobook describes a way to free ourselves from the suffering of addiction using Buddhist practices and principles. Our audiobook is based on the idea that every one of us is our own guide in recovery from addiction, with the help and understanding of our wise friends and sangha (community). We believe that’s what the dharma teaches us.

Publisher's Summary
One Breath at a Time: Buddhism and the Twelve Steps has established itself as a classic, a bellwether of the most significant recovery movement of the 21st century, combining Buddhist mindfulness practices with a 12-step recovery program.
Published in 2004, One Breath at a Time has never lost its place as the best-selling Buddhist recovery book. We are proud to present an audio edition of this transformative work.
What gives the book its enduring value is Griffin's intimate and revealing tales of his own and other's addiction and recovery, combined with his unique capacity to translate traditional 12-step concepts like powerlessness, higher power, and character defects into meaningful contemporary terms. He explores all this through the lens of the core concepts of Buddhism: the Four Noble Truths, the Eightfold Path, mindfulness, loving-kindness, and more. The result is a book that has transformed the lives of thousands of addicts and alcoholics.
Narrated by Kevin himself, the audio version brings this classic book to life.

Perception changed
A friend sent me this book because I had a hard time grasping the program due to not believing in god or a higher power. I’m still an atheist though I have found my higher power in nature and in my surroundings. I’m feeling overwhelmed with emotions and truly feel I’ve been removed from the self hatred I’ve felt for so long. I needed this book and I am relieved to have been blessed with such an honest and vulnerable perspective of life. Thank you Kevin. You changed my life for the ultimate best. I hope one day to meet you and to thank you in person. I will be sure to thank each day I live. And to love each person I meet.

Narration is no problem ...
Not certain why people complain about the narration. If Kevin’s voice is not suitable for the narration of his own book, then Jack Kornfield is no less handicapped. I found the narration relaxed and appropriate for us anxiety-ridden types.
