Position of Neutrality: Learning from Jim the Car Guy – Step 12

Position of Neutrality: Learning from Jim the Car Guy – Step 12

In the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, we read about Jim the car guy. Jim didn’t even start drinking until he was middle-aged and found he was good at it—so good that he lost the car dealership he owned because of his drinking. When we pick up on Jim’s story, he’s having to work for the dealership he once owned. The authors describe how Jim felt a little agitated on his way to work. How many of you have had to go to a diminished job because of your behavior and addiction and felt a little agitated to have to do that? That’s what happened to Jim. Join us as we explore Jim’s story and the transformative power of Step 12, focusing on learning from our past and helping others in recovery.

Position of Neutrality: Sharing Experiences and Guiding Others – Step 12

Position of Neutrality: Sharing Experiences and Guiding Others – Step 12

In the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, it says, ‘So that’s the experience we want to share with them.’ Just because I think I’m doing this, knowing my history, doesn’t mean I’m free from the insanity of the first drink. When they talk about the insanity of the first one, I’m certifiable at the point I take one, knowing my history. So, at this stage, don’t refer to this book unless he has seen it or wishes to discuss it, and be careful not to brand him as an alcoholic. Let him draw his own conclusion. If he sticks to the idea that he can still control his drinking, tell him that possibly he can, if he’s not too alcoholic. Join us as we explore the transformative power of Step 12, focusing on sharing our experiences and guiding others without imposing labels.

Position of Neutrality: The Reward of Lifting Others – Step 12

Position of Neutrality: The Reward of Lifting Others – Step 12

In the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, it says, ‘Helping others is the foundation stone of your recovery.’ My sponsor once told me those were the twelve-step promises, but he didn’t tell me it was a job description. He said, ‘That’s the best you got coming, son, the way you live.’ Fact is, it is the best I had coming. The most rewarding experiences of my life are lifting somebody up out of deplorable conditions and watching them sail. It also states, ‘Practical experience shows that nothing will so much ensure immunity from drinking as intensive work with other alcoholics. It works when other activities fail.’ Join us as we explore the transformative power of Step 12, focusing on the immense rewards of lifting others in recovery.

Position of Neutrality: Lifting Others and Offering a Way of Life – Step 12

Position of Neutrality: Lifting Others and Offering a Way of Life – Step 12

In the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, it says, ‘We seldom allow an alcoholic to live in our homes for long at a time. It’s not good for him and sometimes creates serious complications in the family.’ The most rewarding experiences of my life are lifting somebody up out of deplorable conditions and watching them sail. Though an alcoholic does not respond, there’s no reason why you should neglect their family. You should continue to be friendly to them and offer your way of life. I must be in a way of life to offer it, but I can let them know that the healing power is available and is in pursuit of their loved one. They must get in sync with the spirit for this to work out well. Atmospherics matter. Join us as we explore the transformative power of Step 12, focusing on lifting others and offering a way of life in recovery.

Position of Neutrality: Understanding the Alcoholic – Step 12

Position of Neutrality: Understanding the Alcoholic – Step 12

In the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, it recounts another trip to the asylum for Jim. Any of you relate to thinking it would be harmless to oops? The other guy they talk about—well, we don’t need to get into it. Do you relate to those things? If he’s alcoholic, he’ll understand you at once. So the good news is we’re communicating. The bad news is you just caught alcoholism. But there is a solution. Join us as we explore the transformative power of Step 12, focusing on understanding the alcoholic and the solution offered in recovery.

Position of Neutrality: Admitting Traits of an Alcoholic – Step 12

Position of Neutrality: Admitting Traits of an Alcoholic – Step 12

In the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, it says, ‘You will soon have your friend admitting he has many if not all the traits of an alcoholic.’ If I’m properly armed with the facts about myself, I can match your experiences if you want to match them. If you don’t, if you’re just finding the differences, then we just aren’t ready, or I’m not a competent enough messenger. I can admit my incompetence for the sake of your life, but I won’t be so afraid of what you’ll think of me because I delivered the truth that I’ll let you die in your addiction without ever hearing it. Join us as we explore the transformative power of Step 12, focusing on helping others admit their traits of alcoholism and the importance of delivering truth in recovery.

Position of Neutrality: Helping Others is the Foundation Stone – Step 12

Position of Neutrality: Helping Others is the Foundation Stone – Step 12

In the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, it says, ‘Helping others is the foundation stone of your recovery.’ Who wants a recovery foundation that is filled with stone? All of us, right? That’s how important these people are to us. A kindly act once in a while isn’t enough. I always tell my new ones, if it’s so newsworthy that you need to post your acts of kindness on Facebook, you’re not doing it enough. Post whatever you want, but you ain’t doing enough of it if you think you get a medal for it. And I’m only talking to the alcoholics and the addicts. Join us as we explore the transformative power of Step 12, focusing on the importance of consistently helping others in recovery.

Position of Neutrality: The Demands of Helping Others – Step 12

Position of Neutrality: The Demands of Helping Others – Step 12

In the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, it says, ‘It may mean the loss of many nights’ sleep, great interference with your pleasures, interruptions to your business. It may mean sharing your money and your home, counseling frantic wives and relatives, innumerable trips to police courts, sanitariums, hospitals, jails, and asylums. Your telephone may jangle at any time of the day or night. Your wife may sometimes say she’s neglected. A drunk may smash the furniture in your home or burn a mattress. You may have to fight with him if he’s violent. Sometimes you’ll have to call a doctor and administer sedatives under his direction. Another time you may have to send for the police or an ambulance. Occasionally you’ll have to meet such conditions.’ Guys, that’s the job description. And in Step 3, they said we had a new employer. Join us as we explore the transformative power of Step 12, focusing on the demands and rewards of helping others in recovery.

Position of Neutrality: Growing in Understanding and Effectiveness – Step 12

Position of Neutrality: Growing in Understanding and Effectiveness – Step 12

In the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, on page 98, it says, ‘It’s not the matter of giving that’s in question, but when and how to give.’ Last week, we discussed the importance of growing in understanding and effectiveness. I promised we’d talk about what we’re growing in effectiveness at this week. We need to be in conscious relation because we don’t want our giving to be a detriment to someone’s healing, but we also don’t want to be unkind when kindness is needed. For those of you familiar with biblical teachings, we give to everyone who asks of us, not necessarily what they ask.

In the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, it says, ‘Show him from your own experience how the queer mental condition surrounding that first drink prevents normal functioning of the willpower.’ I need to be armed with the facts about myself. How many of you had some clean time, knew it probably wasn’t a good idea to do any more of whatever tripped your trigger, yet something happened in your thinking, and somehow you just made it okay or didn’t think about it at all? It was easier to start than it was to stop. Any of you have that experience?

Position of Neutrality: Understanding Addiction’s Mental and Physical Grip – Step 12

What are the conditions of body and mind? Having a mental obsession that’s beyond my control—I just can’t get out of the loop. And then, when I finally do ingest it, I have a physical craving. So what should sedate me energizes me, and I need more. How many of you are opiate addicts? Had some clean time and then just went off the rails, OD’d first right out the rip because the craving doesn’t know I ain’t tuned up. They used to try and give me drugs, saying you won’t experience craving. I said you’ll kill me. I ain’t going to stop just because I ain’t feeling it. I’m going to go until I do feel it.

Position of Neutrality: Offering Help to Those Ready for Recovery – Step 12

Position of Neutrality: Offering Help to Those Ready for Recovery – Step 12

Search out another alcoholic and try again if you’re sure to find someone desperate enough to accept with eagerness what you offer. It’s a waste of time to keep chasing a man who cannot or will not work with you. If you leave such a person alone, he may soon become convinced that he cannot recover by himself. Spending too much time on any one situation denies another alcoholic the opportunity to live and be happy. We don’t have the right, because of our own pursuits, to deny somebody else the chance for recovery. Join us as we explore the transformative power of Step 12 from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, focusing on offering help to those ready for recovery.

Position of Neutrality: Accessing Power to Launch into Action – Step 12

“It’s above your pay grade. Notice how these authors talk about going from Step 3 to Step 4, and they say, ‘next we launched.’ Everyone here will have to admit when they went down to write their inventory for the first time, they did not launch. What happened is they accessed power that enabled them to launch. It wasn’t because I made them do it or took them through it—they desperately wanted freedom from what they were going through and launched into a course of vigorous action.

Position of Neutrality: Staying Sober and Living Spiritually Awakened – Step 12

Position of Neutrality: Staying Sober and Living Spiritually Awakened – Step 12

You’re going to feel this way and worse. You may not be drug sick, but you’ll be life sick. And that’s when you’re going to know that you need to claim the promises of this power you’ve gained access to. Because the trick isn’t getting sober, it’s staying sober and living spiritually awakened. If he’s not interested in your solution, if he expects you to act only as a banker for his financial difficulties or a nurse for his sprees, you may have to drop him until he changes his mind. Join us as we explore the transformative power of Step 12 from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, focusing on staying sober and living spiritually awakened.

Position of Neutrality: Overcoming Worry and Morbid Reflection – Steps 10 and 11

Position of Neutrality: Overcoming Worry and Morbid Reflection – Steps 10 and 11

f I’m worried about how you’re thinking about me, I’m worried about the wrong thing because I cannot control how you think about me. I can’t even control how I think about me. But we must be careful not to drift into worry, remorse, or morbid reflection, for that would diminish our usefulness to others. If I drift into worry, remorse, or morbid reflection, I’m less likely to reach out to you and humble myself by asking for help. Then I’m pretending I’m somehow superior to this manner of living, which makes me ineffective. Does that make sense? In this session, we explore the transformative power of Steps 10 and 11 from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, focusing on overcoming worry, remorse, and morbid reflection to enhance our effectiveness and humility in recovery. Join us as we share personal stories, discuss the practical applications of these principles, and provide tips for integrating them into daily life.

Position of Neutrality: Harnessing Your Thoughts – Steps 10 and 11

How many of you have had the experience of your thoughts actually working for you and things sort of went all right? How many of you have had the experience of you working for your thoughts and things didn’t go as well? ‘You’re not good enough. I bet he doesn’t like you. I bet they’re going to fire you anyway. Why go to work? You should stay home. You should just go get another bag. You’re ten dollars short on the rent—go get another hit. You’re going to need it when you’re homeless.’ You never work for that. Look, the decision is this: Either my mind is a tool so that I can be used, or I’m a tool. There’s no other two conditions. I’ve had people point that out—‘Joe, you’re a real tool.’ In this session, we explore the transformative power of Steps 10 and 11 from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, focusing on harnessing your thoughts and achieving mental discipline.

Position of Neutrality: Immediate Amends and Lasting Freedom – Steps 10 and 11

Position of Neutrality: Immediate Amends and Lasting Freedom – Steps 10 and 11

We discuss them with someone immediately and make amends quickly if we’ve harmed anyone. If you are suffering from an outburst, making it right sooner is better. Challenge yourself—not as a condemnation, but because you want to be free. How free do you want to be? Instant freedom is possible. When I take captive that thought, I am not that thought. I am the experiencer of that thought, and I’m going to submit it to the creator and move on into whatever He would have me be. Make sense? In this session, we explore the transformative power of Steps 10 and 11 from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, focusing on the importance of immediate discussion, timely amends, and achieving lasting freedom.

Position of Neutrality: Ceasing the Fight – Steps 10 and 11

Position of Neutrality: Ceasing the Fight – Steps 10 and 11

We’re all children of the living God. We have ceased fighting anything or anyone, even alcohol. So, go to any meeting and when someone tells you how they’re just struggling and struggling, there’s the one you need to help. Because if you’re struggling, you’re doing it wrong. We’ve ceased fighting anything or anyone—even alcohol, cocaine, methamphetamine, heroin, fentanyl. I will lose that fight. It’s got to be removed from me, and it will be removed from me if I humbly ask and then go out and serve. Why do I know that? Because it was removed from me, and it’s happened for thousands of others I’ve encountered since then. I am not exaggerating. By this time, sanity will have returned. In Step 2, I was just hoping for that. In this session, we explore the transformative power of Steps 10 and 11 from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, focusing on the importance of ceasing the fight, embracing humility, and finding sanity through service.

Position of Neutrality: The Power of Sharing and Accountability – Steps 10 and 11

So have we kept something to ourselves which should be discussed with another person at once? Sean talks about it. He’s been doing this a long time. He’s heard a lot of phone calls. And many of you, if you’re working with people, you’ve heard them too. We’ve got to find somebody that we can tell them about our frailties because you’re going to need to at times overcome those frailties. And the only way that’s going to happen is to own them. And so if I can’t sleep because I’m afraid you’re going to discover that thing about me that I can’t stop doing, then it’s going to keep happening until I find an outlet. And I’m going to have to trust somebody with these secrets about me to help me unpack it and then get accountability to move forward. In this session, we explore the transformative power of Steps 10 and 11 from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, focusing on the importance of sharing our struggles and finding accountability in recovery.

Position of Neutrality: Embracing Divine Forgiveness – Steps 10 and 11

Position of Neutrality: Embracing Divine Forgiveness – Steps 10 and 11

After making our review, we ask God’s forgiveness and inquire what corrective measures should be taken. I hear a lot of people saying, ‘Why would I ask for forgiveness from this power I don’t believe in?’ Well, first of all, you’re coming to believe. And second, you’re going to learn that forgiveness is a divine act, so it’s going to have to come from the divinity within me. Because the flesh says, ‘I forgive, but I don’t forget,’ which means I didn’t forgive anything—I’m just waiting for timing. But forgiveness from the divine means it’s been completely removed or it’s been completely repurposed for me. Does that make sense? In this session, we explore the transformative power of Steps 10 and 11 from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, focusing on the concept of divine forgiveness and the importance of corrective measures in spiritual growth. Join us as we share personal stories, discuss the practical applications of these principles, and provide tips for integrating them into daily life.

Position of Neutrality: Growing in Conscious Relation – Steps 10 and 11

I’m going to turn my thoughts to another, discuss them with another, and then turn my thoughts. Yes. And hopefully, that’s going to teach you to grow in conscious relation because you’re not going to talk to another person every time if you can settle it with you and the Creator. And if you can’t get out of the loop, then talk to a human that’s going to help you out. That’s why we have peer models around here. That’s why we have mentors or sponsors or whatever you call them. Because we’ve all been through it. Love and tolerance of others is our code. Love what? Tolerate what? We’re going to start separating people from behavior. Think that’ll be a handy little trick? How many of you could get in a better mood about yourself if you could separate you, the being God loves? Come on, someone better say power. In this session, we explore the transformative power of Steps 10 and 11 from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, focusing on the importance of community, self-awareness, and growing in conscious relation.

Position of Neutrality: Embracing Truth and Spiritual Empowerment – Steps 10 and 11

Guys, we’ve got to tell people the truth. We’re not fighting it; we’re not ‘not picking up no matter what.’ It takes no power to not do. I’m walking as the hands and feet of the creator of the universe. Why would I want to do that crap? I didn’t used to eat when I was drinking because I didn’t want to wreck the buzz. I’m not going to eat of that realm because I don’t want to wreck the buzz. Does that make sense? We feel as though we’ve been placed in a position of neutrality, safe and protected. That’s the name of this group. People ask me, where’d you get that name? Right there. What’s it feel like? We feel power. We feel freedom. We know what they’re talking about, right? In this session, we explore the transformative power of Steps 10 and 11 from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, focusing on embracing the truth and the spiritual empowerment that comes with being in a position of neutrality.

“Position of Neutrality: Transforming Thoughts and Actions – Steps 10 and 11

We will do the same thing with our addictive disorders and our other behaviors if we just stay in it. We react sanely and normally, and we’ll find that this has happened automatically. How many of you over time didn’t know how different your thoughts and actions had become until someone else called your attention to it? Yeah, that’s how you know it happened automatically. I wasn’t looking for that; I thought that was a good part of me. How many of you thought your sarcasm was an asset? We do that, right? We’re just full of wit, aren’t we? But it can be—it’s got a bite to it, doesn’t it? In this session, we explore the transformative power of Steps 10 and 11 from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, focusing on the automatic changes in our thoughts and actions and the journey of self-awareness.

Position of Neutrality: Constructive Reflection – Steps 10 and 11

Yet we believe we can make some definite and valuable suggestions. When we retire at night, we constructively review our day. So maybe the very first change in the way you think and act will be a constructive review instead of a destructive review. How many of you didn’t even know that you were destructively reviewing your day when you laid there growling at everybody or yourself and couldn’t sleep? Were we resentful, selfish, dishonest, or afraid?

How many of you have started having strategies for doing better and surprised yourself? I hear that a lot. Man, I just know I should have done better. I said, yeah, but 2 years ago, you didn’t know that. You’re growing. Now you’re going to have to ask for power because it takes power to do better. So, were we thinking of ourselves most of the time, or were we thinking of what we could do for others, of what we could pack into the stream of life? In this session, we explore the transformative power of Steps 10 and 11 from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, focusing on personal growth and the shift from self-centeredness to service.

Position of Neutrality: Experience the Difference – Steps 10 and 11

For those of you joining us for the first time tonight, welcome! Let us warn you in advance, you’re liable to experience us just a little differently than other meetings of other fellowships you may have attended. The primary reason for this is that we intend for you to have a different experience here. What we do here we’ve been doing for lots of years now. We take a look at the suggested instruction for a step or so a week directly out of the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous. And why do we use this book in 12 Step Recovery? Because the process described by the authors of this book has been proven to work for addicts of the hopeless variety, addicts to alcohol and other substances.

Position of Neutrality: Embracing New Freedom and Happiness – Steps 10 and 11

Position of Neutrality: Embracing New Freedom and Happiness – Steps 10 and 11

Does it make sense? Somewhere in that walk, we’re going to know a new freedom and a new happiness. Whoo! Yeah, we should get a bigger yell for new freedom than that! You know, New Freedom has a really good reputation, and it’s entirely because of you people. You hear things about us from naysayers, but the thing you hear most is that we’re hard to kill, and our efficacy is better than anyone else in the country. And that’s because of you. To all of you hearing me on a prison yard, those facts still hold true to this day. In this session, we explore the transformative power of Steps 10 and 11 from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, focusing on the new freedom and happiness that come with spiritual growth. Join us as we share personal stories, discuss the practical applications of these principles, and provide tips for integrating them into daily life.

The other thing that we like to do here, in case you guys haven’t heard, is that we’re streamed on most of the prison yards, if not all, again.

But it can be—it’s got a bite to it, doesn’t it? There’s a more loving way to convey a thought, and there are other ways to be humorous and light-spirited. Okay, so we’ll see how our new attitude toward liquor has been given to us without any thought or effort on our part. It just comes. They want you to claim that promise. You don’t have to believe it from me; you’re going to have to have your own experience. But I once thought very differently about all kinds of chemicals that I don’t think much about at all anymore. And I’m not mad at anybody for using them, applying them, or wearing t-shirts supporting them. I don’t care. I don’t care. I know that for me, those things were poison. In this session, we explore the transformative power of Steps 10 and 11 from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, focusing on the change in attitude towards substances and the importance of personal experience in recovery.

There’s no longer a delusion—all I’m asking for is the power to carry on. If Thy will be done, we are then in much less danger of excitement, fear, anger, worry, self-pity, or foolish decisions. Exactly. We become much more efficient. We do not tire so easily, for we are not burning up energy foolishly as we did when we were trying to arrange life to suit ourselves.

Position of Neutrality: Embracing Patience, Tolerance, Kindness, and Love – Steps 10 and 11

So then it says when these crop up—notice how they say ‘when’ and not ‘if’—because these are human experiences. When these crop up, we ask God at once to remove them. We discuss them with someone immediately and make amends quickly if we’ve harmed anyone. How many of you have taken the suggestion I gave you a couple of weeks ago about saying in the morning, ‘Creator, show me the way of patience, tolerance, kindness, and love?’ In this session, we explore the practical application of Steps 10 and 11 from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, focusing on the importance of addressing our shortcomings promptly and seeking spiritual guidance to embody patience, tolerance, kindness, and love.

Position of Neutrality: Discovering Your True Identity – Steps 10 and 11

Power comes not from your behaviors or your thoughts, but from recognizing your true identity. This journey is about realizing that you are not defined by how you act, think, or speak. You may be asleep, and you may be accused of being those things, but if you walk this path, you will discover that who you really are is a child of the living God. Amen. And whose you are is His, bought with blood. You must walk in this truth. If people are offended by it, I will not apologize. In this session, we delve into Steps 10 and 11 of the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, focusing on the profound transformation that comes from embracing your true identity and belonging.

Feed my sheep.

What could possibly go wrong? More importantly, what could go right? As we approach our fourth year, we’ve faced allegations and challenges, but our commitment remains unwavering. Our people keep coming home, and every time they walk into our lobby, we say ‘welcome home’—and we mean it. Whether it’s their first visit or they’ve come back a time or two, our welcome is always sincere. Much has already been said about receiving strength, inspiration, and direction from Him who has all knowledge and power.

Position of Neutrality: Achieving Mental Freedom in Recovery – Steps 10 and 11

The reality is I’m not free until my mind is free of grievances and limiting thoughts about myself or others. Any limit I place on you, I automatically place on myself because I am the placer of these limits. This session delves into the importance of freeing our minds from grievances and limiting beliefs to achieve true mental freedom in recovery. We explore how Steps 10 and 11 of the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous guide us in maintaining this mental clarity and spiritual growth.

Position of Neutrality: Elevating Your Thought Life for Lasting Recovery – Steps 10 and 11

Our thought life will be placed on a much higher plane when our thinking is cleared of wrong motives. We aim to clear the way all the time because our entire life, regardless of age, is lived out in our thoughts. Reflect on how your thinking has evolved from when you were twenty to now, and you’ll see that while everyone else aged around you, your internal thought life remains vibrant. Maintaining a clear and positive thought life keeps us young in spirit, regardless of what our bodies can or cannot do. This perspective is crucial for enduring recovery. In this session, we discuss the significance of keeping our thought life clean and how it influences our overall well-being. Steps 10 and 11 guide us in this process by helping us maintain spiritual growth and daily inventory. Join us as we explore practical ways to elevate your thought life, share personal experiences, and discuss how to stay young in spirit through continuous spiritual practice.

Position of Neutrality: Aligning Thoughts with Purpose in Recovery – Steps 10 and 11

Position of Neutrality: Aligning Thoughts with Purpose in Recovery – Steps 10 and 11

In this session, we explore a powerful strategy for facing difficult situations by aligning our thoughts with purpose and divine guidance. Whenever you walk into a challenging situation or find yourself in one, remember this promise: under these conditions, we can employ our mental faculties with assurance, because God gave us brains to use. Often, our thoughts can get in the way of reality. By asking for guidance to separate from the distorted reality we paint and walk in the purpose-driven reality God has for us, we find strength and clarity. You are sent into every situation for a purpose, and this realization helps us employ our mental faculties effectively. When our thoughts work for us, we navigate challenges with assurance and confidence. Steps 10 and 11 teach us to maintain this alignment through daily practice and spiritual growth. Join us as we delve deeper into these steps, share personal experiences, and discuss practical ways to integrate this mindset into your recovery journey.

Position of Neutrality: Embracing a Life of Service Through Steps 10 and 11

Position of Neutrality: Embracing a Life of Service Through Steps 10 and 11

The steps are all-inclusive; they are not mutually exclusive. This is not just a workbook exercise—it’s a manner of living. If you want to walk awake, you do it all for the purpose of serving. Does it make sense? In this session, we discuss how we ask for what we need to handle our problems, seeking freedom from self-will and ensuring our requests are for the benefit of others as well. How many of you have learned that lesson? When faced with daunting amends or court cases, it’s tempting to ask for them to be taken away. But true empowerment comes when we are given the strength to walk through these challenges with dignity, lifting our guilt, shame, and remorse in the process. Steps 10 and 11 teach us the importance of daily maintenance and spiritual growth, helping us live a life of service. Join us as we explore these steps, share personal experiences, and discuss how this approach can lead to profound personal transformation.

Position of Neutrality: Embracing the Promises of Steps 10 and 11

Position of Neutrality: Embracing the Promises of Steps 10 and 11

Are these extravagant promises? They really do seem extravagant, especially for those of us who have a history of embellishing the truth. Yet, the authors of the Big Book assure us that these promises are not extravagant—they are being fulfilled among us, sometimes quickly, sometimes slowly. In this session, we delve into the promises associated with Steps 10 and 11 of the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous. These steps guide us in continuing personal inventory and improving our conscious contact with a higher power. By diligently working these steps, we find that the promises of peace, freedom, and spiritual growth materialize in our lives. Join us as we explore how these steps help us stay accountable, grow spiritually, and experience the profound changes that the program promises.

Position of Neutrality: Finding Freedom in Honesty — A Personal Journey Through Steps 4 and 5

Position of Neutrality: Finding Freedom in Honesty — A Personal Journey Through Steps 4 and 5

Join us as we delve into a deeply personal account of navigating Steps 4 and 5 of the 12-Step program, which are pivotal in the recovery journey. In this video, we explore the challenges and revelations encountered while addressing deep-seated resentments and fears. Initially overwhelmed by the scope of these steps, our storyteller was guided by a sponsor to focus on the key resentments that were fueling anger and use. This approach led to powerful realizations about personal responsibility and the impact of one’s actions on others. Specifically, we discuss how a confrontation with feelings towards a stepmother transformed into a life-changing perspective shift. This story illustrates the weight that can be lifted when we openly share our struggles, and how even withheld items, once finally disclosed, can further lighten our emotional load. Through this narrative, we see how revisiting these steps with a new confidant can lead to even greater growth and ensure a solid foundation in recovery. The journey through these steps is not just about airing ‘dirty laundry’ but about finding freedom and a clearer path forward. Tune in to hear how embracing the full depth of these steps can bring about transformative liberation and growth. Remember, you’re not alone in this journey; every step taken in honesty brings you closer to true freedom.

Position of Neutrality: Navigating Relationships with Wisdom from the Big Book

Position of Neutrality: Navigating Relationships with Wisdom from the Big Book

In this session, we delve into the sensitive but crucial aspect of recovery—our approach to relationships, as guided by the authors of the Big Book. This discussion offers an opportunity to reflect on our behavior across all interactions, emphasizing the importance of not getting caught in extreme viewpoints but instead finding balance through the wisdom of the authors. They remind us that our goal is not to judge but to grow and transform by assessing our actions and making necessary amends. We explore how principles of honesty, selflessness, and consideration should guide our conduct in relationships, and discuss how to apply these principles to not only avoid causing harm but also to heal and improve our connections with others. The Big Book encourages us to seek divine guidance in developing relationship ideals, urging us to be open to making amends where we’ve caused harm while being cautious not to create future harm. By asking God for guidance in each specific matter, we can receive the right answers and solutions, genuinely wanting these answers and being receptive to them through prayer and meditation with sincerity and truth. Reflect on these insights and consider how they apply to your own life, focusing on your own transformation rather than judging or controlling others.

Position of Neutrality: From Havoc to Healing – Giving Credit to the Transformative Power

In today’s video, we explore the incredible journey of transformation many undergo in recovery, shifting from a life intent on causing harm to one guided by love, power, and a new way of living. We’ll discuss how those who were once notorious for their destructive behaviors have been delivered into a life of recovery, and the importance of recognizing the source of this change. Giving credit where it’s due is not just about gratitude; it’s a crucial part of maintaining our recovery and continuing to live in alignment with our new values. We’ll also touch on the common challenges faced in personal relationships, humorously noting that for some, the first step is actually having a relationship before navigating the troubles that can come with it. This session is for anyone who’s seen the darker side of life and found a way out, and for those still struggling to find their path to peace. Join us to hear stories of profound change and the daily practices that support a life free from havoc.

Position of Neutrality: Leading by Example – Inspiring Change Through Actions Not Words

Position of Neutrality: Leading by Example – Inspiring Change Through Actions Not Words

Welcome to our session on the transformative power of living a recovery lifestyle that inspires others. In recovery, we learn not just to change ourselves but to become beacons of hope and change for others. This video delves into the importance of not allowing past roles or perceptions to define our current lives, nor to keep others imprisoned in their past perceptions of us. We discuss how, by walking out in a new manner of living, we naturally attract others who are drawn to this path and might follow us toward recovery. Our actions often speak louder than words, especially to those who have witnessed decades of our struggles. Additionally, we address the challenges of making amends when direct contact isn’t possible, emphasizing the use of honest letters when necessary and not delaying amends without good reason. We explore how to be sensible, tactful, considerate, and humble in our approach, balancing strength with kindness without being servile. Join us as we unpack the nuances of influencing others positively through our own behavior and the gradual, yet impactful, process of personal transformation. Tune in every Thursday at 7:00 p.m. Arizona time on our YouTube channel to continue discovering the depths of recovery and the expansive impact it can have on both our lives and the lives of those around us.Join us for more inspiring recovery stories and transformative insights.Check out our website at: www.positionofneutrality.orgYouTube:http://www.youtube.com/@positionofneutrality721Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PositionOfNeutralitySpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3mGbAbcacTs83RhMsv6FmY?si=6531e7adfdbb480eRSS: Position of Neutrality | RSS.comTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@interactivestepexp?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc#PositionOfNeutrality, #JoeMcDonald, #BrianReinhart, #WayneGiles, #EricReinhart, #DeniseMcDonald, #JoeTeaches, #RecoveryLeadership, #InspiringChange, #ActionsSpeakLouder, #MakingAmends, #RecoveryJourney, #SpiritualGrowth, #RecoveryTransformation, #LeadingByExample, #InfluenceThroughAction, #HealingJourney, #LivingInRecovery, #SobrietyInfluence, #CommunityImpact
