Ever wondered how giving something away can actually help you keep it? This episode of the Transitions Daily Alcohol Recovery Readings Podcast, read by Sarah M from Pittsburgh, takes you through the paradox of 'giving away to keep'. It's a concept that might sound odd at first but holds deep significance in the journey of recovery. You'll hear reflections on how sharing experiences and support with others is crucial to maintaining sobriety.
The episode explores various recovery quotes, like those from 'Twenty-Four Hours a Day' and 'As Bill Sees It', offering a blend of wisdom and humour that makes sobriety not just a goal but a fulfilling way of life. The readings touch on important themes such as humility, pride, and the antidote for fear. You’ll find insights on how pride can be a stumbling block and how embracing humility can lead to spiritual growth.
Sarah's reading includes thoughts on AA's Tradition 11, which emphasises attraction rather than promotion—a refreshing approach in a world full of relentless advertising. Whether you're in the midst of your own recovery journey or supporting someone else, this episode offers a comforting reminder that sobriety is about learning, serving, and loving. It's not just about staying sober but living a meaningful life filled with purpose and connection.
So, if you're looking for daily encouragement or simply want to understand the paradoxes of recovery better, give this episode a listen. It might just offer the perspective you need.
