Our commonality is not based in a blanket abstention. It is based in our common compulsion and our common solution: the steps and traditions of oa.
Imagine a place where everyone's unique journey is respected, yet all share a common goal. In this episode of 'Promise of Recovery', Lauren Lansrud dives into the core tradition of Overeaters Anonymous: 'our common welfare should come first'. Drawing from the January 5th entry of the OA-approved Daily Reflection and Morning Meditation book, Voices of Recovery, Lauren unpacks the significance of unity within the OA community.
She highlights that the tradition isn't about a one-size-fits-all approach to abstaining from certain foods. Instead, it's about acknowledging our shared struggle with compulsive eating and finding common ground in the steps and traditions of OA. Lauren's discussion emphasizes the value of non-judgmentalism, urging listeners to respect each other's individual triggers and recovery programs. This episode is a thoughtful exploration of how unity and respect can fortify the recovery journey for everyone in the OA community.
Tune in to gain a deeper appreciation for the importance of tradition in fostering a supportive and understanding environment.
