Ever wondered what it takes to embrace sobriety one day at a time? This episode of AA Morning Snippets with Alyssa is like a warm hug on a chilly morning, offering solace and strength to those on their recovery journey. Alyssa, an alcoholic herself, begins with a moment of silence, honouring both the suffering and recovering alcoholics and their loved ones.
The episode is anchored by the serenity prayer, a staple for many in recovery, reminding us of the power of acceptance and courage. The focus then shifts to the '100% step'—the first step in the 12-step programme, which is about admitting powerlessness over alcohol. Alyssa candidly shares her own struggle with this step, recounting her journey of relapse and return to AA. Her story is a gentle reminder that perfection isn't required, just the willingness to try.
With wisdom from AA literature and a sprinkle of personal anecdotes, Alyssa reassures listeners that guilt over slips is unnecessary, as the path to recovery is unique for everyone. As the episode wraps up with the Lord's Prayer, Alyssa leaves us with a simple yet powerful plea: "Dear God, please help me stay sober today." It's a heartfelt episode that reminds us all of the importance of community, support, and taking life one day at a time.
So, how do you find strength in your daily routine? Perhaps it's time to reflect and reach out for that support.
