Dear Emotional Sobriety Workshop Members:

Thank you for everyone’s participation and sharing this Sunday. It is nice to be together again. I missed our meeting!

The New Conference Dial-in Number: 712-432-1212

ID: 649-886-071

Playback recording number: 712-432-1219

Playback reference number: 4.

This week, we continued reading and sharing on Step 8 and 9.

We read through “Five Characteristics of Successful Amends,” and “Step 8, Part 2: HOW to prepare amends.”

Next week, we will continue to read and share on the worksheets provided.

I would like us to read the sections on Step 8 and 9 in The Bigworkbook/AA Big Book  and complete Steps 8 and 9 in the Little Red Book.

Previously, we read up to page 142/76-77 in The Bigworkbook/AA Big Book and up to page 80 PP 1 in the LRB.

Worksheets for Steps 8 and 9 are posted on the blog.

The spiritual principles of these steps are accountability, responsibility and forgiveness.

We will adjust our format as we go through the step. “More will be revealed.”

The pace of the workshop is speeding up.

“We will be amazed before we are halfway through!”

Please feel free to read the handouts to share your thoughts with the group.

Looking forward to “seeing” you all next week!

With blessings for peace and recovery,

Shira
