Bill C's Guide to Deepening Spiritual Connections in AA Step 11

In meditation, I can watch myself, think I can sit and breathe and focus on my breath. Everything else shuts down the little ego, the one that presented itself at about two and a half years old and now you've built it up to this creature that's older now and well-developed.
Ever feel like your meditation practice is being hijacked by your own ego? Bill C from Torrance, CA, certainly has, and in this episode of 'Sober Speak', he shares his journey with Alcoholics Anonymous Step 11. Bill opens up about the hurdles he faced in disciplined meditation and how easily the ego can throw you off track. He offers practical tips on meditating with intent and staying present throughout the day.
Bill emphasizes that AA isn't psychotherapy; it's about addressing spiritual needs, which in turn improves mental and physical health. His insights into self-awareness and reflection are both relatable and inspiring. If you've ever struggled with keeping your mind focused during meditation or wondered how to integrate AA principles into your daily life, this episode is for you. Bill's candid discussion will leave you feeling more connected and grounded.
