Katie and Charlie P.: Spiritual Insights from the Set Aside Group
There's more available, and it's available as a result of getting with somebody and doing the work right out of this big book. There was such a huge experience available to me.
Katie and Charlie P. bring their wealth of experience to this episode from the Set Aside Group's 2019 workshop in North Carolina. As part of a seven-part Step Study series, they dive into the transformative power of the amends process and the importance of a good spiritual guide. Katie and Charlie share personal stories that highlight the benefits of disciplined prayer and meditation, offering practical advice on how to unblock oneself and let in the 'sunlight of the spirit'.
Charlie emphasizes the importance of doing the work and connecting with others, drawing wisdom straight from the Big Book. Katie's tip to start statements with 'my experience' during inventory sessions offers a fresh perspective that many find helpful. They also stress the need to pause when feeling agitated or doubtful, reminding listeners that not wasting energy foolishly can lead to greater resilience.
This episode is packed with actionable insights and heartfelt reflections, making it a must-listen for anyone on a spiritual path or looking to deepen their recovery journey.
