"Above everything, we alcoholics must be rid of this selfishness. We must or it kills us."
In this episode of the Transitions Daily Alcohol Recovery Readings Podcast, Sarah N from Pittsburgh takes listeners on a reflective journey through the concept of selfishness in the context of alcohol recovery. Drawing from various Alcoholics Anonymous resources, including the Big Book and Daily Reflections, the episode challenges you to confront the idea that many troubles stem from self-will and self-centredness.
Through a series of poignant quotes and acronyms like PRIDE, the episode underscores the necessity of shedding selfish tendencies for a healthier, sober life. You'll find discussions on how humility and spiritual strength can serve as antidotes to life's pains and uncertainties. The readings emphasise the importance of accepting life on its own terms, and turning one's will over to a higher power as a pathway to peace and healing.
With anecdotes about rationalisation and the dangers of self-justification, Sarah offers insights into how these mental traps can lead back to old habits. This episode isn't just about quitting alcohol; it's about embracing a holistic approach to recovery that involves introspection and spiritual growth. The podcast provides a comforting space for those grappling with addiction, offering wisdom that resonates deeply with anyone on the path to sobriety.
