| Tao Te Ching Verse 20 – Stop Thinking and End Your Problems! | 13 Nov 2023 | 00:54:00 | |
Much of my problems in life are self-inflicted. I try to control many things that I am incapable of controlling. This "living letting go" is a very different lifestyle than I led before recovery.

| Tao Te Ching Verse 19 – Living Without Rules! | 09 Nov 2023 | 00:49:56 | |
Living in the way can bring about a move from a fear-based existence toward a Love-based reality that makes rules a place to hide rather than flourish.

| Tao Te Ching Verse 18 – Living Above the Pendulum! | 05 Nov 2023 | 00:45:52 | |
Is it possible to live a life of Compassion, which lifts us above criticism and faultfinding? When the greatness of the Tao is present, action arises from one's own heart. More identification of what life looks like when we choose substitutes rather than what is real. We are looking forward to seeing you at an upcoming meeting!

| Tao Te Ching Verse 17 – The Spiral Downward! | 01 Nov 2023 | 00:51:05 | |
To know Tao alone, without a trace of your own existence, is the highest. Next comes loving and praising it, then fearing it, then despising it. In all interactions, we are one of these four phases. This is an excellent discussion of self-government and how verse 17 of the Tao Te Ching relates to our recovery experience.

| Tao Te Ching Verse 15 – Can I Welcome All Things? | 20 Oct 2023 | 01:00:56 | |
The Master doesn't seek fulfillment. Not seeking, not expecting, she is present and can welcome all things. Welcome is defined as greeting in a glad or friendly way – not tolerate, condone, or endure but welcome. And not only welcome but greet in a friendly manner.

"Acceptability is a matter of logic: if you do not pursue what is acceptable when you see it, and do not flee what is unacceptable when you see it, acceptability and unacceptability are to each other as left to right, as outside to inside."

| Christian Non-Duality and the Tao Te Ching – Marshall Davis's Story | 12 Oct 2023 | 01:00:56 | |
Marshall is a retired Southern Baptist pastor. Marshall has written over 20 books, including The Tao of Christ, a Christian version of the Tao Te Ching, and most recently, The Sermon on the Mount, a non-dual interpretation. Marshall is not in recovery but does bring much to his interpretation of both Taoist and Christian texts. His experience with non-dual awareness is incredibly insightful, not only in this interview but in his podcast and writings.

| Tao Te Ching Verse 9 – Care About People's Approval and You Will Be Their Prisoner. | 07 Sep 2023 | 00:49:13 | |
Fill your bowl to the brim and it will spill. Keep sharpening your knife and it will blunt. Chase after money and security and your heart will never unclench. Care about people's approval and you will be their prisoner. Do your work, then step back. The only path to serenity. — Stephen Mitchell, Tao Te Ching, Verse 9 Great discussion of verse 9 of the Tao Te Ching and how it relates to our recovery!

| Tao Te Ching Verse 3 – Whan action is pure and selfless, everything settles into its own perfect place! | 03 Aug 2023 | 00:52:14 | |
In this podcast, we discuss how Taoist principles relate to our personal addiction recovery journey. The Master leads by emptying people's minds and filling their cores, by weakening their ambition and toughening their resolve. He helps people lose everything they know, everything they desire, and creates confusion in those who think that they know. Practice not-doing, and everything will fall into place. — Stephen Mitchell, Tao Te Ching, Verse 3
