"Humility means to show submissive respect, and by being humble, I realize I am not the center of the universe"
Rise and shine with Alyssa as she takes you through a morning routine designed for those on the path of alcohol recovery. This episode kicks off with a heartfelt moment of silence, honouring both suffering and recovering alcoholics. Alyssa shares the Serenity Prayer, a cornerstone in the journey of sobriety, setting a reflective tone for the day. The main theme revolves around humility and its crucial role in staying sober and living a meaningful life.
Alyssa candidly discusses how pride and self-centeredness were once dominant in her life, highlighting the importance of humility in recognising that one is not the centre of the universe. With references to the 12 Steps and 12 Traditions, she explores how humility is about respecting a higher power and depending on it to overcome life's challenges. Alyssa also touches on 'Imaginary Perfection', an old AA saying warning against spiritual pride and the unrealistic pursuit of perfection.
She reminds you that while Step 1 can be practised perfectly, the other steps are ideal goals, serving as benchmarks for progress. Ending with the Lord's Prayer, Alyssa offers a spiritual touch to conclude the episode, reinforcing the notion that continuous effort in sobriety brings positive results. This episode is not just a morning ritual but a gentle reminder that humility and reliance on a higher power can guide you through recovery.
So, if you're looking for a meaningful start to your day or seeking encouragement in your sobriety journey, this snippet might just be what you need.
