No one among us has been able to maintain anything like perfect adherence to these principles.
Ever felt like the traditional recovery paths just don’t fit? In this episode of SAFE RECOVERY, hosts stop13stepinaa and Gunthar take a hard look at Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and its cornerstone texts. They kick off by scrutinizing the research—or lack thereof—behind The Big Book, questioning how Bill Wilson managed to compile such an influential work. The conversation then shifts to the evolving language within AA’s literature and what that means for its members. But they don’t stop there.
The hosts dig into the limitations of AA’s one-size-fits-all approach to addiction recovery, arguing for more personalized and empowering alternatives. From spiritual to secular, they explore various healing modalities that aim to put control back into the hands of individuals. This episode is perfect for anyone who’s ever felt out of place in traditional recovery settings or is curious about different paths to sobriety.
It’s a must-listen for those seeking a critical examination of AA’s methods and a fresh perspective on addiction recovery.
