Redefining Will: A 5-Minute Meditation on Surrender in Recovery
“The will of god for me is the most natural thing for me to do. The will of god is where I find peace and joy.”
Ever felt like the idea of surrendering your will to a higher power sounds more like a punishment than a path to peace? Buddy C. gets it. In this five-minute meditation, the second in his Step 3 series, he breaks down what 'will' really means and why surrendering it can actually be a relief rather than a burden. Buddy’s journey hasn’t been easy—he relapsed multiple times, even after a near-death experience with pancreatitis.
But since 2008, he’s found sobriety and a new perspective on surrender. This episode isn’t just about giving up control; it’s about understanding the true nature of will and how letting go can bring you closer to joy and peace. Buddy’s open-minded approach, blending traditional AA principles with broader spiritual insights, offers a fresh take on recovery.
Whether you’re new to the journey or have been walking the path for years, this meditation provides practical tools and heartfelt wisdom to help you navigate the complexities of Step 3. Tune in and discover how surrendering your will can become the most natural thing you do.
