Sandy B's Workshop: Steps 5-9 in AA's Journey to Recovery

Episode Overview

  • Sandy B provides profound insights into the transformative journey within the AA program
  • Emphasises the rewards and challenges of the fifth step in the AA program
  • Illustrates the transformative power and necessity of humility in the sixth step
  • Discusses the significance of embracing pain and forgiveness for emotional healing
  • Masterfully elucidates the impact of making amends and living a day at a time
And to me, that's what the sixth step is suggesting. And the more I move on, the closer I get to something that feels real good. At the end of the day I know I haven't moved one bit in this direction of spiritual growth. I'm quiet. We don't want to keep track of this. I don't need to think about the fact I didn't do anything today. Well, it's a good thing that part of me is in there. It's a good thing there's other people in the program that talk about these things. It is a great fortune there's other people in the program that talk about these things.
Ever felt the weight of your past mistakes dragging you down? Sandy B, a beloved figure in the AA community, takes listeners on an enlightening journey through Steps 5 to 9 of the Alcoholics Anonymous program. In this episode of Sober Cast, Sandy breaks down the fears and rewards tied to these crucial steps, offering a mix of wisdom and practical advice. Step 5 is all about sharing your deepest secrets with another person.
Sandy explains how this act can lift a huge burden off your shoulders, leading to a sense of relief and a spiritual awakening. He dives into Step 6, emphasizing the need for humility and the role it plays in seeking spiritual growth. Pain, according to Sandy, isn't just something to endure; it's a catalyst for change and growth. Forgiveness takes center stage as Sandy discusses its power to heal old wounds.
He doesn't shy away from the tough parts, like making amends in Step 9. Sandy offers heartfelt advice on how to approach those you've hurt and why it's a vital part of the recovery process. Living one day at a time is more than just a saying; it's a practice that Sandy encourages everyone to adopt. Sandy's insights are both profound and accessible, making this workshop a must-listen for anyone on the path to sobriety.
Whether you're new to AA or have been around for years, his words offer comfort, guidance, and a fresh perspective on the journey to recovery.
