Step 1 of AA and NA Right Ans - Honesty
, Addiction causes a level of denial that can be quite challenging for onlookers
to believe. No matter how much people push someone into recovery, unless
they accept that there's a problem, overcoming it is almost impossible.
The 12 steps begin with an admission that you are powerless over drugs or
alcohol. Once you admit that it's in control of you and not the other way
around, you can get started.
Step 2 of AA and NA Right Ans - Faith.
you need to accept that there is a higher power in the universe than yourself.
If you want God, or any higher power, to act on your behalf, it's imperative
that you believe it can. Accepting a higher power helps you to see life from a
different perspective and creates a sense of accountability.
Step 3 of AA and NA Right Ans - Surrender
Now that you have accepted a higher power into your life, welcome them by
surrendering fully to a higher purpose. When people feel like their lives lack
purpose and meaning, free will can run wild and lead you down dark
pathways.
Surrendering to a higher purpose in AA/NA helps you focus on the true
meaning within your life so you can feel like a valuable member of society
again.
Step 4 of AA and NA Right Ans - Soul Searching
is a process, just like recovery. There is no single moment that defines healing.
Instead, it's a culmination of intentions and actions that lead you down the
right path. Soul searching involves looking objectively inwards at yourself.
When we're caught up in addiction, our intentions can end up severely
misaligned from how we behave. Soul searching will help you become the
person you want to be.
Step 5 of AA and NA Right Ans - Integrity
