Join Joe McDonald as he reflects on the powerful experience of seeing the world differently through recovery, as outlined in Step 12 of Alcoholics Anonymous. Joe asks, why do the authors say “this is an experience you must not miss” instead of “a sight”? He explains that when we begin to see things differently, we also feel them—because truth has a feel.

This promise of internal transformation, regardless of circumstances, is a key aspect of recovery.In Alcoholics Anonymous, Step 12 teaches us to carry the message to others and live by spiritual principles, helping us to live in a new world, no matter what challenges arise.

Join Joe McDonald as he explains why prayer and meditation are essential in Step 12 of Alcoholics Anonymous. Joe shares that when we speak to the divine within us, we receive answers through intuitive thoughts or decisions. He emphasizes that we won't take these actions unless we know it's real. Drawing from personal stories, Joe highlights the importance of empowering people to connect with the power that animates them, rather than making them dependent on us. This is crucial, especially for those who come from homelessness or situations where they had to ask for everything.In Alcoholics Anonymous, Step 12 focuses on carrying the message and helping others, but with the understanding that we are guiding people to rely on their Higher Power. Joe reminds us that true freedom comes from building that spiritual connection, not from dependence on others.To support and learn from journeys like Joe McDonald, please like, comment, and share.

Join Joe McDonald as he explores the importance of prayer and the proper attitude to have when approaching it, as outlined in Steps 10 and 11 of Alcoholics Anonymous. Joe emphasizes that prayer works if we have the right attitude and are willing to work at it. He asks what the proper attitude is, explaining that the book provides the answer—prayer isn't about just avoiding behavior, but about addressing the thinking that leads to it. Joe also reflects on how the grace we experience throughout the day gives us a chance to clean up our thoughts and actions, helping us find peace and rest.In Alcoholics Anonymous, Step 10 encourages us to continue taking inventory of our actions, while Step 11 focuses on deepening our relationship with our Higher Power through prayer and meditation. Joe reminds us that prayer is not just about asking for power, but about changing our mindset so that we can live in alignment with spiritual principles.To support and learn from journeys like Joe McDonald, please like, comment, and share.

Here is a bit about Dan B in his own words: I grew up in a nuclear family filled with addicts and alcoholics. In 1995, I began a long term relationship with an alcoholic and sex addict. That relationship and eventual marriage led me on a journey with stops in many forms of institutions and hospitals. By the grace of God, I attended my first Al Anon meeting on July 19, 2004 and my first S-Anon meeting on January 13, 2010. In 2023, for a reason I don't yet see, my S-Anon friends named me Yodanon. I am proud of being named after the wisest (non conference approved) Jedi knight. Finding my voice through public speaking and serving others helps me earn my emotional sobriety, one day at a time. In this Reco12 Speaker Meeting, Dan speaks with us about making 9th step amends with himself and with his Higher Power. Reco12 is all about exploring the common threads of addiction and sharing tools and hope from those on a similar path. We gather from diverse backgrounds, faiths, and places to learn and support one another. Our speakers are members of various fellowships, addictions, and afflictions, thus showing the common threads of recovery, no matter our addiction or affliction. As this is the final Reco12 Speaker meeting of the year 2024, I just want to thank you all for another wonderful year, and wish you all a very happy holidays and a happy new year. Reco12 values your support in carrying out our 12th Step mission, providing essential resources for addicts and their loved ones.

Join Joe McDonald as he shares practical wisdom on facing indecision, as outlined in Steps 10 and 11 of Alcoholics Anonymous. Joe explains that it's common to face moments of uncertainty, whether you're new to the program or have been walking the path for years. On days when we don't know which course to take, Joe encourages us to simply ask God for inspiration: “God, inspire me.” This simple prayer allows us to seek spiritual guidance, and the answer often comes to us as an intuitive thought or decision. Joe emphasizes that walking the spiritual path is simple, but it requires us to continually turn to our Higher Power for direction.In Alcoholics Anonymous, Step 10 teaches us to stay mindful of our thoughts and actions, while Step 11 helps us seek spiritual guidance through prayer and meditation. Joe reminds us that in moments of uncertainty, inspiration is always available if we take the time to ask for it.To support and learn from journeys like Joe McDonald, please like, comment, and share.

Join Joe McDonald as he discusses the importance of using spiritual tools in Steps 10 and 11 of Alcoholics Anonymous. Joe reflects on how early in the program, Ebby shared a set of spiritual tools with Bill, emphasizing that we must pick them up willingly and consciously. Joe explains that to move into a conscious relationship with a Higher Power, we must do so intentionally—it can't happen by accident or trickery. He also reminds us that after making our daily review, we ask for God's forgiveness and inquire about the corrective measures we should take to stay spiritually aligned.In Alcoholics Anonymous, Step 10 encourages self-inventory, while Step 11 focuses on deepening our connection with our Higher Power. Joe emphasizes that willingness and effort are the only requirements for spiritual growth and that using spiritual tools helps guide us through the challenges of recovery.To support and learn from journeys like Joe McDonald, please like, comment, and share.

Join Joe McDonald as he explores the process of outgrowing fear and overcoming financial insecurity through Steps 10 and 11 of Alcoholics Anonymous. Joe shares a powerful insight—that we don't simply escape financial insecurity by stopping bad behaviors, but by living through challenges, taking personal responsibility, and weathering whatever comes our way. He emphasizes that while we may stop doing bad things, bad things can still happen, but we can be free despite them. Joe also reflects on how, through spiritual growth, we begin to intuitively handle situations that once baffled us.In Alcoholics Anonymous, Step 10 calls for continued self-inventory, while Step 11 encourages deepening our connection to our Higher Power. Joe reminds us that by trusting the process and facing our fears, we can live freely and intuitively, no matter what challenges come our way.To support and learn from journeys like Joe McDonald, please like, comment, and share.

Join Joe McDonald as he discusses the importance of prayer and meditation in Steps 10 and 11 of Alcoholics Anonymous, focusing on seeking guidance rather than just relief. Joe explains that, during meditation, we ask for the power to navigate through circumstances rather than for circumstances to change. The true freedom comes from learning to navigate the challenges we face, rather than avoiding them. Joe also reminds us to be careful not to pray for selfish ends, but instead, ask for the power to help others through our actions and decisions.In Alcoholics Anonymous, Step 10 encourages us to continually assess ourselves, and Step 11 strengthens our conscious contact with our Higher Power. Joe emphasizes that prayer for freedom from self-will and guidance on how to move through difficulties is key to spiritual growth and a deeper connection to divine purpose.To support and learn from journeys like Joe McDonald, please like, comment, and share.

Join Joe McDonald as he discusses the importance of spiritual awareness upon awakening, as outlined in Steps 10 and 11 of Alcoholics Anonymous. Joe explains that by starting our day with conscious reflection and prayer, we can use our mental faculties with confidence, knowing they are working for us and aligned with our Higher Power. However, if we neglect this spiritual connection, we risk letting our minds control us, telling us who we are and distorting our perception of the world. Joe emphasizes that the mind is a tool, and we must awaken each day to ensure it serves us rather than enslaving us.In Alcoholics Anonymous, Step 10 helps us maintain self-awareness and accountability, while Step 11 encourages deepening our conscious contact with our Higher Power. Joe reminds us that by awakening to spiritual awareness each day, we keep our minds in check and stay aligned with divine guidance.To support and learn from journeys like Joe McDonald, please like, comment, and share.

Join Joe McDonald as he reflects on the promise of not regretting the past nor wishing to shut the door on it, as outlined in Steps 10 and 11 of Alcoholics Anonymous. Joe explains that through recovery, we learn that our addiction was not a curse but a calling—our worst experiences can now be used to alleviate the suffering of others. He highlights the words “comprehend” and “know,” emphasizing that serenity is not something we comprehend but something we recognize as a state of being. Joe also explores what it means to truly “know” peace and how that knowledge transforms us.In Alcoholics Anonymous, Step 10 encourages us to reflect on our past actions and admit when we are wrong, while Step 11 strengthens our connection with our Higher Power, helping us experience serenity and peace. Joe reminds us that by accepting our past and finding purpose in it, we gain the peace that comes from living in alignment with our spiritual path.To support and learn from journeys like Joe McDonald, please like, comment, and share.
