As we learn the true meaning of surrender, we are no longer fighting fear, anger, guilt, self-pity or depression. We realize that the power that brought us to the program is still with us and will continue to guide us if we allow it.
What does it mean to truly surrender in the battle against addiction? In this episode of 'Addiction Recovery - Living the Program', Roy Nichols takes listeners on a deep dive into Step 3 of the Narcotics Anonymous (NA) twelve-step program. Roy reads from the NA Basic Text, sixth edition, and shares his own personal story of addiction and incarceration. He talks about how surrendering to a higher power played a pivotal role in his recovery journey.

Roy addresses common challenges like fear, anger, guilt, and self-pity, and offers practical advice on how to overcome these hurdles through spiritual growth. Whether you're new to recovery or have been on this path for a while, Roy's insights provide valuable guidance and encouragement. Tune in to hear how embracing Step 3 can lead to a more fulfilling life in recovery.
