Mike H. on Extending Recovery Beyond Meetings

It's a little easier to practice these principles with the people that we converse with in the rooms, but doing it on the outside, with the people I come into contact at work and you know and like it said in the reading, my family, my wife, really practicing. It almost guarantees that you're going to have a better life practicing the principles.
How do you take the lessons learned in recovery meetings and apply them to everyday life? Mike H. from Dover, DE, dives into this very question on this episode of the Daily Reflection Podcast. Reflecting on the theme 'In All Our Affairs', Mike shares his personal journey of integrating the principles of the 12-step program into every aspect of his life, not just during meetings.
He talks about the challenges and rewards of practicing patience, tolerance, and understanding with his family and friends, just as he does with fellow alcoholics. Mike also opens up about the importance of daily self-reflection, asking himself tough questions like, 'Did I miss a chance to be kind today?' or 'Did I avoid a difficult situation?' His candid discussion touches on relying on a higher power and the significance of a strong support network in maintaining sobriety.
Mike's reflections on dealing with personal shortcomings and the impact of suicide in recovery offer profound insights for anyone on a similar path. This episode is a heartfelt call to action for those looking to deepen their recovery by extending it into all areas of their lives.
