I believe it is Spirit that brought me to sobriety. I never had a stereotypical rock bottom, thoughts of self-harm, or even anyone telling me I had a problem with alcohol ( unfortunately it was the opposite, those close to me and including a therapist told me I didn’t have a problem ). But I have always watched for signs, I have always listened for whispers from Creator, and after enough nudging, I felt the answer in my marrow that alcohol needed to be removed from my life if I truly wanted to live in a good way. So far, this has proven to be the case. Spirituality for me is listening to my gut. Talking to Creator and my ancestors every night. Expressing my gratitude, voicing my challenges, asking for help, and a sign. They always come. A dream, an Eagle flying overhead, opportunities opening up to me. I’ve never found Spirit in the high ceilings of a church. It’s always been within the depths of myself. -H.M.Thomond 2022
I have always leaned on the spiritual side of things and this supports me in getting through difficult times. It also helps me to feel grateful for all the good things in my life. I find a feeling of inner peace when I use spiritual elements in my day, it helps me to keep grounded. -M .M. Thomond 2022
