Writing isn't just about jotting down thoughts; it's a crucial tool in the 12-step recovery process, particularly in Overeaters Anonymous (OA).

You'll hear about the ways writing can aid in inventory work, offering a deeper understanding of one's behaviors and emotions. This episode isn't just for those in recovery; it's for anyone looking to explore the therapeutic benefits of writing.
Tune in to discover how this simple yet powerful tool can bring clarity, resolve conflicts, and ultimately, help you achieve lasting serenity.
