“Through meetings (our Fellowship), we detox our body. Through the Steps, we detox our minds. Through service, we detox our spirit.” - Herb K. From the book: 12 Steps to Spiritual Awakening: Enlightenment for Everyone.

In the rooms of recovery, we are introduced to the process that helps lay a foundation for a life of successful sobriety. Working the 12 Steps allows us to find clarity as we are guided to a new understanding of our thinking and behavior. Learning to observe and react differently. We are then encouraged to go out from there and apply the principles we learn “in all of our affairs” to the best of our ability. We continue to grow in knowledge and experience of using these principles and look for continued growth in our effectiveness. Our mutual friend, Bill W., says, “This is not an overnight matter. It should continue for our lifetime.”
