2025-10-13-AA Morning Snippet

How do people find strength in their journey to sobriety? Alyssa, the host of AA Morning Snippets, kicks off the day with a heartfelt morning routine aimed at those on the path to recovery. She begins with a moment of silence, honouring both the suffering and recovering alcoholics, and their loved ones. This episode is packed with powerful reflections and prayers, including the well-known Serenity Prayer, that set the tone for a day grounded in mindfulness and humility.

Alyssa dives into the importance of 'unremitting inventories', a practice that encourages individuals to constantly assess themselves for selfishness, dishonesty, resentment, and fear. She candidly shares how admitting wrong thoughts or actions can be particularly challenging due to ego and pride but emphasises that it’s a crucial step for personal growth and understanding.

The episode also touches on the dangers of 'going it alone' in spiritual matters, reminding listeners of the value in seeking guidance from trusted friends or spiritual advisors. Ending with the Lord's Prayer, Alyssa wraps up this snippet with a simple yet profound message: 'Keep coming back. It works if you work it.' Her words are a gentle nudge to stay committed to sobriety, highlighting that growth and understanding come from consistent effort and openness.

Whether you're just starting your recovery journey or have been on it for years, Alyssa's reflections offer comfort and encouragement. Are you ready to embrace the day with a renewed sense of purpose?
