Rav Ariel 12 Steps - Bonus & Working Program

Rav Ariel Podcast

In this episode, we cover How To Work A Program, inspired by quotes from Codepe​ndents’ Guide To The Twelve Steps, Melody Beattie (CODA) Quote #1 - “We do this with the understanding that our parents were probably at least as victimized as we were, perhaps more so, but we temper it with the knowledge that understanding does not mean we have to continue to allow ourselves to be harmed or brainwashed.” (p205 Codependents’ Guide, M. Beattie) Quote #2 - “Codependency can contribute to relapse if it is not addressed.” (p209 Codependents’ Guide, M. Beattie) Quote #3 - “Our sobriety began with abstinence and recovery from our addictions. Our lives began with recovery from codependency.” (p209 Codependents’ Guide, M. Beattie) Quote #4 - “The goal of recovery from codependency…has been to restore us to sanity so we could participate in healthy, loving relationships — if that was our decision and choice.” (p212 Codependents’ Guide, M. Beattie) Quote #5 - “There is a great deal of wisdom inherent in the policy of keeping our hands off other people’s business, as it pertains to their choices about relationships. It is not our job to advise others about what their choices need to be or when they need to make those choices.” (pp 212- 213 Codependents’ Guide, M. Beattie)
