Dharma Community & Connections event graphic

Dharma is a code of living, based on the belief that humans are guided by an internal purpose – one that is amplified when we fully connect to the world around us.

Join us Fridays from 6:30-8:30 pm to connect with like-minded individuals who are looking for true belonging and connection to their life’s purpose. In this low-key, casual Friday night hang-out, you’ll have the opportunity to connect with others on a similar path.

This free community group is led by Recovery Dharma, which also hosts the first and only recovery dharma group in Orange County, CA at the Barn. Recovery dharma is a Buddhist-based support community for holistic addiction treatment, helping people who are recovering from co-occurring disorders such as addiction or substance abuse, as well as mental illness.

No pressure and no hard convos – just an open, safe space for people committed to mindfulness, compassion, and generosity on their healing journey.

Like all other groups hosted at Barn Life Recovery, Dharma Connections does not require registration to attend and is free to the public. You do not need to be a client of Barn Life Recovery to participate in the group.

Our support groups at Barn Life Recovery are non-judgmental spaces where everyone feels safe. Join Us!

Interested in a holistic approach to recovery? Be sure to also check out the Dharma Recovery Group, held Tuesdays from 6:30-8:00 pm at Barn Life Recovery.

Hear From Those We've Impacted

Barn Life is uniquely special. As someone who has had long stretches of sobriety with "traditional" communities and methods, Barn Life stepped in when I started struggling during the pandemic and said "traditional" methods failed to help.The staff here are exceptional. This is a truly subjective statement, but it is my honest opinion that the people from the owner (Hi Matt!) to EVERYONE else works there because they believe in the work and want to share the tools they found.Barn Life and their little sibling, Peer Mental Wellness were the launchpad from a shell of an existence to person with self-love/respect, and a life-mission of personal development.

Best for someone looking for spiritual healing in addition to their mental health healing.

Barn life is probably one of the most amazing facilities you could ever attend when it comes to mental illness. This was the first place that popped up when I was searching for help and I’m so thankful that it did. The environment is very therapeutic, the staff is awesome, and the group discussions and activities were so helpful in me understanding what I was experiencing. Do not hesitate to be a part of this place. It’s literally a game changer. I was only there for 6 weeks but I wished I stayed at least 6 months. Ever since returning home, I’ve been much happier and my perspective has changed dramatically. I’ve done things and participated in events at my college that I never thought I would be able to do. This place is truly amazing and I’m forever grateful that I found this place.

Through trial and error of trying to stay sober this program is definitely the most caring and supporting of them all if anyone needs help and is willing to help themselves I suggest barnlife they will for a fact give you the push you need and the tools to keep you going

My daughter has been at Barn Life Recovery now for two months. It was my last resort to send her 9 hours away from me. She has been in drug and mental health rehabs in and out for two years. This was my last stitch effort to save my daughter and get her back to herself. Alyssa and I spoke multiple times before deciding. Their willingness to do everything for her and the different teams they have work with them is amazing. My daughter is happy again and clean and sober. She loves it there in their outpatient program. They restore your faith in humanity. They help restore someone who is broken in so many places to themselves. They have put the light back in my daughters eyes. They are committed to helping each person who truly wants the help. They assist in helping them get jobs and be responsible members of society. I recommend their program to anyone wanting to recover from drug, alcohol and mental health.Thank you to all the people at Barn Life who have made my daughter smile and bring the light back to her eyes. I am truly grateful.DawnaLee
