Quieting the mind through meditation brings an inner peace that brings us into contact with the god within us.
Ever feel like finding peace in recovery is a never-ending battle? Eli, a grateful recovering addict, takes you on a journey through Step 11 of the Narcotics Anonymous (NA) basic text, sixth edition. This episode of 'Addiction Recovery - Living The Program' is all about the transformative power of prayer and meditation. Eli reads the conclusion of Step 11, sharing his personal reflections and experiences that highlight the importance of these practices in achieving inner peace and spiritual awakening.
Eli dives into how quieting the mind through meditation brings us closer to our inner selves and helps us achieve emotional balance. He talks about the profound impact of maintaining personal contact with a higher power, which can lead to a life free from fear and distrust. Acceptance plays a crucial role in this step, and Eli candidly discusses his initial struggles with it.
Through constant connection with his higher power, he eventually realized that God's love was always there, leading him to redefine his beliefs and understandings. One of the key takeaways from this episode is the importance of service work in staying clean. Eli emphasizes that by giving back what we have received from NA, we can enjoy the spiritual wealth we've found. This not only helps us experience a spiritual awakening but also attracts others to the path of recovery.
Eli's story is a powerful testament to the promise of recovery. Once addicted to methamphetamine and involved in a street gang, he shows that anyone with the desire to recover and willingness to do the work can transform their lives through NA. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking inner peace and spiritual growth. Eli's insights into honesty, open-mindedness, and willingness offer valuable lessons for those on their recovery journey.
Tune in to hear how incorporating prayer and meditation into daily life can lead to emotional balance, personal contact with a higher power, and acceptance of oneself and others.
