Meditation

to sit.

What everyone in AA has in common is that no one ever had a life goal of being an alcoholic.

So I was fully in a moment of silver lining in my own recovery was to begin to be able to Sit.

To learn to be still.

To do this in a sangha or alone.

In the quiet and the uncertainty. To let the thoughts come and go. To be a witness to the mind and the way it wants to be in charge and sometimes is so unkind. And to reflect on the voice in my head and how it can be my voice and be patient and be kind.

I love to share this practice with people and to let us sit and deeply listen. Make time to just be with ourselves. All the parts. And simply sit.
