About this listen

Tenth Anniversary Edition

“Brother Rohr may just take you to places you’ve both avoided and longed for, to truth, union, joy, laughter, and, greatest of all, to your own precious self, here on earth with us, child of God.” (Anne Lamott, from the foreword)

We all suffer from unhealthy dependencies that we continually return to in hopes of having a better life. But after yet another TV show is streamed or another drink is swallowed, we find we once again feel worse, not better, than we did before. Where is the hope for that fully awakened life we long to live?

World-renowned author Richard Rohr says we can only be healed and find true fulfillment by facing our dependencies head-on. In Breathing Under Water, he will guide you to:

  • Disentangle from cultural cycles of sin and emptiness.
  • Discover how to get free from your personal toxic dependencies.
  • Learn how the Twelve Step program can supplement Christian teaching.
  • Find compassion for others and yourself.
  • Enjoy a deeper spiritual life, feeling certain of God’s love for you.

Those who are ready to break negative patterns and experience greater internal freedom will find bold hope and transformation in this insightful book.

Megan

Love this book, finished it for the second time - read it for my brother who has been an alcoholic for 25 years. Richard Rohr presents the AA truths in a new and thoughtful way for the believer and unbeliever alike.
