Polly P's Guide to Emotional Sobriety and Character Growth
All of my problems and all of my solutions lie in the book, and I know for sure if I'm working with another alcoholic somewhere, somewhere in there, I'm going to talk about God, and the more I talk about God, the better I'm going to be the solution.
Have you ever felt like your emotions were holding you back in your sobriety journey? Polly P offers a fresh perspective on this in her workshop, originally presented at the West Portland Group in December 2006. Drawing from Bill W.'s article in 'Language of the Heart', Polly delves into the intricate world of emotional sobriety and character defects. She breaks down how these defects can lead to self-pity, fear, and faulty dependencies.
With a focus on Steps Six and Seven, Polly emphasizes the power of working with others and the role of sponsorship in overcoming these hurdles. She also highlights the solutions found in the Big Book and the importance of a higher power. Whether you're new to sobriety or have been on this path for years, Polly's insights offer valuable guidance on achieving emotional balance and personal growth.
