The Freedom Of Surrender (Step 1 Of The 12-Step Wisdom)

Step 1 of the 12-step recovery program opens us to the gift of surrender.

This meditation uses visualization of our life history to foster clarity about how a seemingly harmless coping tool can turn into an addiction over time. Seeing our past with clarity, compassion, and objective distance can enhance self-compassion. From that place, it's natural to feel courage and determination to adopt new healthier ways of meeting life.
