Resentment is the number one offender. It destroys more alcoholics than anything else. From it stems all forms of spiritual disease, for we have been not only mentally and physically ill, we have been spiritually sick.
Ever feel like resentment is a heavy weight dragging you down on your sobriety journey? In this episode of the 'Transitions Daily Alcoholics Anonymous Recovery Readings Podcast', Sarah M. from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, sheds light on why resentment is often called the 'number one offender' for alcoholics.
Drawing from a variety of trusted AA resources like 'Twenty-Fours A Hours A Day', 'Daily Reflections', and 'As Bill Sees It', Sarah dives into how harboring grudges can lead to spiritual sickness and hinder recovery. Sarah offers practical steps to confront and release these toxic feelings. She suggests putting pen to paper and listing out people, institutions, or principles that spark anger, then delving into the reasons behind those feelings.
Often, it boils down to threats to self-esteem, ambitions, or personal relationships. By facing these resentments head-on, you can start to heal spiritually and move forward in your sobriety. But it's not just about letting go of anger. The episode also emphasizes the importance of gratitude and humility. Sarah shares how adopting a positive mindset can be transformative. Making amends, seeking guidance through meditation and prayer, and facing creditors are also discussed as essential steps in the recovery process.
This episode is packed with valuable insights for anyone grappling with resentment and looking for ways to strengthen their sobriety. It's a reminder that you're not alone in your struggles and that there are practical tools and a supportive community ready to help you on your path to recovery.
