Since alcoholism is a disease of body, mind and spirit, let me commence along those lines. First body: most of us in AA stopped drinking for various periods before we got serious about quitting for good.
Ever wondered if Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) could truly change your life? A.J. Adams, once a skeptic, shares his eye-opening journey in this episode of 'Recovery Road'. His book, *Undrunk: A Skeptic's Guide to AA*, serves as a candid account of how his life evolved—body, mind, and spirit—after a year in the program. Host William Moyers dives into Adams' story, exploring how he moved from denial to a fulfilling life in recovery.
Adams uses humor and honesty to depict what AA meetings are really like and what it means to live 'undrunk'. He emphasizes that recovery isn't just about quitting alcohol; it's about improving every aspect of your life. From better physical health to sharper mental clarity and a deeper spiritual connection, Adams shares his personal progress report and practical tips for anyone on their own recovery journey.
This episode offers a holistic view of sobriety, making it a must-listen for those in early recovery or anyone curious about AA.
