Building a Positive Self-Image
When I value my skills and talents, respect my own intelligence then I can act on my beliefs and feelings. The key is to feel better about me.

Suzy W and I discuss the importance of addiction as a family disease. The programs of Al-Anon and Alcoholics Anonymous have so much in common. Beyond the addict-codependent connection, it has been our experience that each need to become well. Without each person working on their own recovery, balance will not be achieved.
Experience, Strength and Hope
In this podcast Robert P. shares his story of recovery and the path he has chosen along the way. For those who suffer from addiction, there is hope for life-long recovery One Day at a Time.
Therefore, we must set ourselves on a proven path and follow this path as religiously as we drank alcohol and or used drugs. Without this degree of diligence, we will revert to the destructive path that the least resistance brings to us.
If recovery were hard very few of us would achieve it. I am so grateful the plan of recovery is designed to be simple. I am not assaying it is easy, I am saying it is simple. The simplicity of recovery makes it accessible to and by everyone. I am not a good artist, but if you arrange the dots in the proper sequence I can draw a horse, a person or anything else you place the dots to portray. That is exactly what was done when the 12 Step Plan of Recovery was laid out. It is my experience that those who do not connect the dots and recovery are those who don’t want to connect the dots. I hope the recovery is for you and you decide to connect the dots as they are laid out.
