In this episode of Sober Cast, you'll find yourself immersed in an engaging workshop led by Dave F and Mark H, focusing on Emotional Sobriety. Recorded at the Wilson House in 2002, this is the third part of an eleven-part series that tackles the complexities of emotional sobriety with a mix of humour and deep reflection. Mark shares anecdotes about misconceptions around God and the importance of seeking a power greater than oneself.
His candid discussion on personal experiences with fear and self-delusion offers a relatable perspective for anyone navigating sobriety. Dave complements this with his insights into the Second Step Proposition, encouraging listeners to explore their willingness to believe in a higher power. The episode challenges you to lay aside prejudices and preconceived notions, emphasising that spiritual growth requires openness and acceptance.
You'll hear about the importance of living in the moment, illustrated through metaphors like 'the hamster on the wheel', highlighting how our ego can keep us from experiencing life fully. The conversation is peppered with light-hearted moments, ensuring a balance between seriousness and humour. Whether you're new to AA or have been on the journey for years, this episode offers a valuable exploration of emotional sobriety.
