In this episode of 'Journey Through Recovery', we delve into Step 10 of the 12 Steps of Recovery, emphasizing the importance of continuous spiritual growth and self-awareness. Host David, a recovered alcoholic and drug addict, guides listeners through the process, following the clear-cut directions laid out in the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous. The discussion opens with a version of the set-aside prayer, inviting listeners to let go of preconceived notions about themselves and their spiritual paths.
David emphasizes that this journey is not a fellowship group but rather a structured program to help individuals take the 12 Steps and learn how to guide others through them. Step 10 is crucial as it involves maintaining spiritual progress and confronting selfishness, dishonesty, resentment, and fear. David highlights that recovery is not a static process but requires ongoing action and vigilance to prevent the ego from resurfacing.
Listeners are encouraged to engage actively, with opportunities to ask questions and participate in a WhatsApp group for continued support. David stresses the importance of developing a God-consciousness, a vital sixth sense that fosters relief from the bondage of self. The episode underscores the notion that recovery is a lifetime commitment, requiring sustained effort and awareness. Through personal anecdotes and references to the Big Book, David illustrates how spiritual progress leads to lasting change and fulfillment.
As we prepare for Step 11, focusing on prayer and meditation, this episode serves as a reminder of the transformative power of action and spiritual growth in the journey of recovery.
