Nightly Reflections: The Big Book's Guide to Recovery
“It's a case of saying: look all through The Day you've been having relationships with you, with your children, with yourself, with work, with strangers, with a bloke at work, you know, with the next door neighbor, and it's saying just now, stop, reflect back to look back and see.”
Picture this: it's the end of a long day, and you're settling down for some quiet reflection. In this episode of the '12 Step Recovery Evolution' podcast, Lester Morse, the Rehab Director at UK Rehab East Coast Recovery, dives into the wisdom of the Big Book's 'When We Retire At Night'. Lester brings together former clients, peers, and staff for an engaging discussion on how nightly reflection and meditation can play a crucial role in addiction recovery.

Lester also touches on the value of good sponsorship and how addressing underlying dysfunctions can aid in your recovery journey. His insights are both practical and heartfelt, offering listeners a tangible way to incorporate these practices into their daily lives.
