Step 11 in the 12 step philosophy states…

Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God, as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out.

Today’s daily AA reflection reiterates the power of this step reminding us that growth keeps us from returning to ways that no longer serve or nourish our heart’s desire. Recovery is a miracle but the miracle isn't magic. The miracle happens because you are willing to put simple principles to work in your recovery. Start a daily meditation practice as an effective strategy in recovery.
