New Year's Resolutions: Embracing Sobriety with Daily AA Readings
When we look back, we realise the things which came to us when we put ourselves in god's hands were better than anything we could have planned.
As the calendar flips to a new year, it's a time for reflection and fresh starts. For those grappling with alcoholism and addiction, this period can be particularly tough. The 'Transitions Daily Alcoholics Anonymous Recovery Readings Podcast' offers a beacon of hope and guidance for anyone looking to begin the new year on a sober note. In this episode, Kirsty S.
from the East Midlands, UK, shares an array of recovery quotes from well-loved resources like 'Twenty-Four Hours a Day', 'A.A. Thought for the Day', 'Daily Reflections', and 'Just for Today'. These quotes touch on themes of spiritual growth, living in the moment, and the strength found in fellowship.
One standout quote from the episode is, 'When we look back, we realise the things which came to us when we put ourselves in god's hands were better than anything we could have planned'. This highlights the idea that surrendering to a higher power can lead to unexpected and wonderful outcomes. Another memorable quote from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous talks about finding joy and laughter in past experiences once recovery is achieved, and the ability to help others.
This message is especially uplifting for those who may be unsure about finding happiness without alcohol. Beyond the daily readings, Transitions Daily fosters a sense of community with a secret Facebook group for discussion and daily email distribution. This support network can be invaluable for those feeling isolated in their recovery journey.
