January BRN Academy

SUNDAY January 4, 2026 at 10AM PST

Join us Online with our Board Member Dalila Bothwell

As we enter a new (Gregorian) new year (also, a new day, moment, hour) we can take a moment to reflect on this practice of remembering to remember as well as our practice of recovery and how they support one another.

What would be wise for us to remember? In this time together, we will talk about remembering what is wholesome/skillful and wise according to the Buddhist suttas and how that can support us in our recovery.

Dalila Bothwell
Dalila Bothwell’s (she/her) Dharma-meditation practice lives at the intersection of love for community, land, and 12-step recovery. During her nearly decade-long tenure as a director for New York Insight Meditation Center, she learned the priceless value of sangha and the role relationships play in embodying the teachings and in creating kinder human beings.

Dalila is a graduate of the Spirit Rock Community Dharma Leaders Program, formally educated in nutritional science and food studies and has served with the Buddhist Peace Fellowship, Insight Meditation Society, and Dharma communities throughout the US. She loves dancing furiously in her kitchen and taking long walks in the desert with her handsome pup, Brisco. Dalila believes freedom is a holistic art, learn more at www.dalilabothwell.com.

More About the Academy

The Academy has invited some of the leading teachers in the field of Buddhist recovery. On the first Sunday of every month for an hour each teacher will explore the sharp edges of suffering through the lens of the Buddhist Teachings.

The Academy brings together teachers from different Buddhist lineages and approaches. Themes like addiction, alcoholism, depression, stinking thinking and compulsive behaviors will be explored.

During this event we will meditate, listen to the teaching, then have time for a Q & A at the end.
