Taking the time to experience silence calms the mind and rejuvenates the body. Silence is the void where we can hear the many sounds that we often ignore, the voice of God telling us the truth. That is what we are all about…finding the silence that is already there, hearing God’s voice to be inspired to be the best version of ourselves. We embrace all walks of people who want to continue their Spiritual Journey. On the following pages you will find tools and gentle reminders to aid you, whether you are in a Twelve Step program of Recovery, have a loss of a loved one or want to give appreciation to someone who has touched your life.

We encourage you to become a part of our Community, to expand the awareness that we are not alone, and to help find peace within ourselves and in the world.

Just like life ….our site is constantly changing and growing, we would love to hear your “positive” feedback.

May God reveal to you,
His purpose in your life
and bless you abundantly.

Do not change your beliefs because you want other people to change theirs.

God Pillow

Change your beliefs because your new beliefs announce more accurately who you are.

Yet even as you change, do not be surprised if other people change, and if the world around you changes. For the change in you will act as a catalyst in producing change in others. Not because you have sought to produce change in others, but, more probably, because you have not.

People do not change because they are told to change. People may temporarily alter their behavior because they have been told to do so by those who have power over them, but that is not real change. That is merely a surface shift of outward demeanor. Inner truth has not shifted. As soon as the power over them has been lifted, or can no longer be exerted, people’s behavior returns to that which is motivated by their inner truth.

Prayer: Lord, help me change my thoughts and actions, Guide me to find your voice in the quiet time of my day. Help me find my inner truth, with your help so I can of maximum service to you, myself and others.

Guilt-filled Addict Submitted by Dawn Maslar-Ranish on December 19th, 2009

Dear Dawn,

I am 23 years old and it only took 7 years of using for my disease to bring me to my knees. However, I have been in recovery now for a little over a year. This is my first time of abstinence and my first time in a program. I have been in a relationship with the man I love for 4 years. He recently asked me to marry him! So of course I said yes but here is my problem. In active addiction, I was a dancer and did many horrible things. My fourth step is full of shame and guilt. I have just finished my fifth step but sex still is a very uncomfortable area for me. I went from being a highly sexual person to withdrawing from anything sexual. I feel like sex is wrong. I know over time I can work through this but not exactly how to work through my shame and guilt while being in a relationship. This is just not fair to him. I want to be able to have sex and feel good about it. Help! A guilt-filled addict.

Dear Guilt-filled Addict,

Oh sweet child, I want to thank you so much for writing. Many women struggle with this issue in silence. The fear and shame keep many from asking questions, so thank you for being so brave!

Almost every woman I have met in recovery has a past that includes sexual shame and guilt. I am so happy that you said you were working the steps. What the steps will do is allow you to come to terms with this. As you continue to work the steps, you will eventually release all that old pain and the guilt and shame will slip away. steps

This phenomenon is very much like the movement of a pendulum. In our addict we are at one end of the spectrum, with extreme sexual behavior. When we get into recovery, all of a sudden we withdraw as you stated, sometimes to the point of complete abstinence. We go from one end of the spectrum to the other end. You may even find yourself going back and forth a bit, until you finally settle down to a place where you feel comfortable with yourself, your past and your sexuality. So, how do you deal with your fiancé in the meantime? Talk to him (without any gory details) and explain you need this time. If he truly loves you he will understand and give you time. If he doesn’t want to give you time, than it indicates he is probably too young or to selfish to be a husband right now.

Just do me two favors: don’t get married until you finish all your steps, and don’t run off confessing anything until you have talked with your sponsor. You have a long and wonderful life ahead of you. I can assure you that you have many talents and qualities that are untapped right now. I commend you are taking the beginning steps to a life beyond your wildest dreams. Well done little one!

Love,

Dawn

Food Addiction

So often people get in a cycle of depression and eating for comfort and develop a food addiction. The cycle perpetuates the depression and eating and it goes around and around. Addiction happens and the individual is caught in the cycle of addiction long before they identify a problem with food. Many individuals would like to be able to say there were no warning signs of an eating disorder. Individuals in recovery refer to that rationalization as denial.
Addiction whether to food, alcohol or drugs develop over-time. As the disease progresses so does the behavior, the lie the person tells themselves is I can control this on my own I don't need help. That is typically when the individual has crossed the line into the addiction and are unable to get out of the cycle. Food is a required means of energy used to fuel the body, when food is misused and turns against the person invariably the person blames the food, people around them, his or her job, spouse, family, friends anyone except themselves.
Typically the blame goes on until the person says enough and starts to recognize the only way out of the eating disorder cycle is through it. No one ever said it was going to be easy; the addiction process did not happen overnight and will not go away overnight. Finding an eating disorder treatment program to help the person overcome the addictive behavior patterns and to help them formulate a plan to live a life without using and abusing food is essential for the recovery process. After reading this article he or she feels motivated and ready to break free from the cycle of food addiction contact an eating disorder treatment program and begin the life intended. Joanna M.
