Consistency in Sobriety: Joe McDonald's Insights from AA's Founders

But the reality is the reason I do that. Not now because I fear being thought a hypocrite, because that happens anyway. But what I have learned is I benefit from it.
Ever wondered why consistency is so crucial in the journey to sobriety? In this episode of 'Position of Neutrality', Joe McDonald dives into a poignant moment from the book 'Alcoholics Anonymous: The Story of how Many Thousands of Men and Women Have Recovered From Alcoholism'. He focuses on the founders' advice about the importance of daily routines in maintaining sobriety.
The episode emphasizes that reviewing our day and preparing for conversations with sponsors or peers isn't just about avoiding hypocrisy—it's about genuinely benefiting from a structured approach to recovery. Joe explains that consistent practices like prayer, meditation, and pausing when agitated or doubtful are essential for showing our dependence on a higher power and maintaining our sobriety. This episode serves as a gentle reminder that everyone is learning and growing, and that consistency is a cornerstone of this journey.
Tune in to hear Joe McDonald's reflections on how these practices can support your path to recovery.
