Dr Mike's 'Experience The Big Book' podcast takes you on a journey through the AA Big Book, exploring the pivotal Step 10. With a mix of humour and sincerity, Dr Mike shares his personal struggles and triumphs, providing a relatable and engaging perspective on the path to recovery. He candidly discusses the importance of transitioning from a self-centred mindset to one where spirituality and connection with God are at the forefront.
Dr Mike emphasises that while this process isn't perfect, it's about progress, not perfection. He shares anecdotes from his own life, including a humorous yet insightful story about his shoulder injury, illustrating how untreated alcoholism can manifest in everyday worries and fears. Through Step 10, Dr Mike explains how to maintain a spiritual connection, which he believes is crucial to staying sober.
He introduces the concept of 'two worlds' – one driven by ego and self-centredness, and another governed by spiritual principles. The episode delves into how practising the steps can help shift from the former to the latter. Dr Mike offers practical advice on how to watch for selfishness, ask for divine help, discuss issues with others, make amends, and turn thoughts towards helping others. These steps form a framework for living a balanced and spiritually connected life.
Whether you're new to recovery or have been on the journey for years, Dr Mike's insights provide valuable guidance and encouragement. This episode is a reminder that recovery is a lifelong commitment and that connecting with others and practising spiritual principles can lead to a fulfilling and sober life.
