Matthew opens up about how taking a daily inventory has helped him stay accountable and maintain his sobriety. He dives into the significance of prayer and meditation, sharing how these practices have deepened his connection to a higher power and provided him with a sense of calm and direction. His experience with transcendental meditation, in particular, has given him a new appreciation for the spiritual aspects of the 12 steps.

They discuss how these relationships offer support and guidance, making the journey to sobriety less lonely. Matthew's story is a testament to the power of faith and community in overcoming addiction. For anyone navigating their own path to recovery, Matthew's insights offer a beacon of hope and practical advice.
