Crafting Your Step 8 Amends List: A Meditation with Buddy C

There's always a solution. There is never an issue that our higher power does not have a way to bring us relief.
Ever wondered how to organize your Step 8 amends list? Buddy C is here to guide you through it in this enlightening episode of 'Sober Meditations'. Buddy kicks things off with a calming 20-minute meditation, designed to help you relax and focus. Once you're in a serene state of mind, he dives into the nitty-gritty of formatting your Step 8 amends list. Forget about one-size-fits-all solutions; Buddy explains how to categorize your amends into 'now', 'later', 'maybe', and 'never'.
This method helps you tackle the task without feeling overwhelmed. He emphasizes the importance of including key details for each amend, such as the name of the person or institution, the relationship, the nature of the harm, and the character defect that caused it. Buddy also suggests asking yourself if you're willing to forgive the other person involved.
He underscores the value of working closely with your sponsor and reminds you that just like you're powerless over alcohol, you're also powerless over your eighth step. By the end of the episode, you'll have a clearer understanding of how to approach your amends list, making it a crucial listen for anyone on the path to recovery.
