Start your day with Alyssa in this heartfelt episode of AA Morning Snippets. Alyssa, an alcoholic in recovery, begins with a moment of silence for those struggling with addiction and their loved ones. She then recites the Serenity Prayer, a cornerstone of the Alcoholics Anonymous programme, which sets the tone for the day's reflections.
Alyssa shares a poignant passage from Alcoholics Anonymous, page 151, about how sobriety has transformed her life, bringing warmth, love, and joy that grow deeper with time. She contrasts this with her past experiences of chasing fleeting happiness through alcohol, offering a hopeful perspective on the journey to recovery. Next, Alyssa tackles the challenging topic of anger, drawing from the 12 and 12, page 90-91. She discusses how resentment and temper can derail recovery and emphasises the importance of self-restraint.
Her reflections on avoiding quick-tempered reactions and practising patience are both practical and relatable for anyone on the path to sobriety. The episode concludes with the Lord's Prayer, reinforcing a sense of community and spiritual support. Alyssa's closing words, 'Keep coming back. It works if you work it,' serve as a gentle reminder that recovery is an ongoing process that requires daily commitment.
This episode is a touching blend of personal reflection and timeless wisdom from AA literature, making it a valuable listen for anyone seeking encouragement and guidance in their recovery journey.
