Did you know how important it is to have a support group when recovering from an addiction?
The 12-step programs provide a suggested structure and support for healing our lives of outmoded and self-destructive patterns. They incorporate a belief in God or Higher Power-of your understanding. Rigorously applying the 12-step process brings about a deep healing of a person's relationship with themselves and other people.
A person also learns the invaluable skill of self-evaluation (introspection), self-honesty, problem solving, and solution discovery. I have personally witnessed the incredible transformative power of the 12-step programs. They can be a wonderful, life-long support group for the chronic challenge of being overweight and other addictions.
