Exploring the idea of addictionism as a living disease, one that affects not just the body but also the mind, emotions, and spiritual well-being. The discussion focuses on Steps 1, 2 and 3, showing how faith, willingness, and daily practice provide a foundation for recovery.

The group shares how addictionism continues to manifest even after the obsession to drink or use is lifted, through restless thinking, self-will, and emotional imbalance. They reflect on the importance of action, not just belief, in building a connection with a higher power and learning to live by spiritual principles. Themes include quality versus quantity of faith, the struggle between self-will and surrender, and the practice of tolerance and patience with others.

You will hear relatable experiences of getting “off track” in recovery and how simple practices, prayer, meditation, reaching out to others, and living by principles like kindness and honesty help bring balance. This audio reminds us that recovery is a daily, moment-to-moment process, not a one-time event.  This also touches on paths 5, 10 and 11.
