Today we read and completed the article The Next Frontier – Emotional Sobriety by Bill Wilson, page 3.
We also began to read Dr. Bob’s Nightmare 172:3
My favorite line came from Esther: “I need to be abstinent in all my affairs.” I thought that this was a great definition of emotional sobriety!
Next week we will read and discuss another article on emotional sobriety, and continue reading Dr. Bob’s Nightmare in the AA Big Book. Time permitting, I would like us to also begin to read and discuss The Four Absolutes as well.
Here are the links:

Here is a PDF of the AA Big Book
The plan is to divide our time between doing the steps and reading from the stories in the AA Big Book.
I am so grateful to be sharing this journey with all of you!
Thank you all for sharing your experience, strength and hope.
“Together we can do what we can never do alone.”
With blessings for recovery and peace,
