Kick off your day with 'AA Morning Snippets', where Alyssa, an alcoholic, shares a blend of spiritual reflection and practical wisdom. This episode starts with a moment of silence for those grappling with alcohol addiction and their loved ones, followed by the Serenity Prayer, which is a staple in the recovery community. Alyssa offers a heartfelt practice of listing blessings—a gratitude exercise that she says helps shift focus from feeling victimised to recognising the abundance in life.
This personal inventory spans two pages and took two hours to compile, highlighting the significance of acknowledging life's gifts. The episode also touches on the concept of living a double life, a common struggle among alcoholics. Alyssa reads from Alcoholics Anonymous literature, reflecting on how guilt and pride can be destructive forces in one's life. She emphasises the importance of moral inventory—a deep dive into personal history to identify emotional scars and work towards healing them.
It's like pulling out shards of glass that inhibit growth and happiness. Ending with the Lord's Prayer, Alyssa reinforces the spiritual aspect of recovery, encouraging listeners to keep coming back to this process of healing and growth. This episode is a gentle reminder that recovery is a journey filled with introspection, gratitude, and spiritual grounding. Whether you're seeking solace or simply curious about the recovery process, this snippet offers valuable insights into the daily practices that support sobriety.
