Kick off your day with Alyssa on AA Morning Snippets, where she shares a heartfelt morning prayer and some powerful reflections to set the tone for a day of recovery. Alyssa, an alcoholic herself, begins with a moment of silence for those suffering and recovering from alcoholism, followed by the serenity prayer.
This episode dives into the concept of humility, quoting from the '12 Steps and 12 Traditions' and exploring how true joy and freedom come from a genuine desire for humility rather than seeing it as a burden. Alyssa's personal reflections on the transformative power of honesty and trust in a higher power provide a beacon of hope for those on their recovery journey. Alyssa also touches on the persistent illusion many alcoholics have—that they can control their drinking.
She quotes from 'Alcoholics Anonymous' to highlight how this dangerous belief can lead to insanity or even death. Her poignant comparison of alcoholism to a slow-acting but equally deadly illness like cancer is a stark reminder of the seriousness of the disease. The episode wraps up with the Lord's Prayer, reinforcing the importance of faith and community in the recovery process.
Alyssa's candid sharing and spiritual guidance offer a comforting and inspiring start to the day for anyone on the path to sobriety. Whether you're seeking solace, strength, or simply a moment of reflection, this episode provides valuable insights and encouragement.
