Statement Eleven: If Something Can Go Right, It Will
05/05/2012 Duración: 12minIn this episode we discuss Statement Eleven of the Women for Sobriety "New Life" program. This statement reads, Enthusiasm is my daily exercise. I treasure all moments of my new life. From the essay: Opening ourselves to a life of enthusiasm can be as simple as changing one thought; instead of saying, “anything that can go wrong, will”, what would happen if we were to say, “anything that can go right, will?” Isn’t it easier to show enthusiasm when you believe things will go right than it is when you expect them to go wrong?

Statement Ten: Learning to Love the "I"
19/04/2012 Duración: 09minIn this episode, we consider Statement 10 of the Women for Sobriety "New Life" program. This statement reads, "All love given returns. I will learn to know that others love me." In addiction, it can be very difficult to grasp the idea of loving and being loved. Once we become sober, we can struggle with understanding how to love. From this episode: We have all had the experience of meeting someone who has an aura of warmth about them. When we develop our sense of self-love, this is how others will come to see us. It is this outward expression of our inner love that allows others to truly love us. When we approach our lives with love for ourselves and, by extension, compassion for others, we draw that positive energy back to us. We find ourselves with better health, a better emotional state, and more lightness in our approach to life. When we love ourselves, we can connect with and feel the love of the entire world.

Statement Nine: Letting Go of the Past
07/04/2012 Duración: 09minIn this episode, we discuss Statement Nine of the WFS "New Life" program. The past is gone forever. No long will I be victimized by the past. I am a new woman. From this episode: ... we are often reminded by others of our past transgressions when we become sober; it is up to us to learn how to respond to these situations without becoming embroiled in self-doubt and self-hatred, as these are states which frequently lead to relapse. Statement Nine provides us with a framework for this understanding. The words are simple, but they resonate very deeply with the essence of what it means to be in recovery.
