The purpose of this book is to help all individuals find a better way of life through enlightenment, transcendence and a personal relationship with divinity.
Ever wondered how the Twelve Steps can guide you to a life filled with peace and purpose? In this episode of 'One Hour AT A Time', host Mary Woods sits down with Herb Kaighan, a recovering alcoholic and spiritual guide, to discuss his book, 'Twelve Steps to Spiritual Awakening'. Herb shares his personal journey through the Twelve Steps, offering a unique blend of traditional wisdom and universal spiritual insights.
He breaks down each step, explaining their significance and how they can help individuals move from the darkness of addiction to a life of fulfillment. Herb emphasizes that spirituality in recovery isn't about religion but about connecting to something greater than oneself. He dives into the history of Alcoholics Anonymous, touching on its roots in the Oxford Group, and highlights the importance of rites of passage in recovery.
Particularly, he describes the fourth and fifth steps as a form of 'soul surgery', essential for addressing the spiritual malady at the heart of addiction. Join Mary and Herb as they explore how self-discovery and surrender can lead to enlightenment and a better way of life. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking to understand the deeper spiritual aspects of recovery.
