Hello, my name is ______ and we are gathered for The Healing Steps, for each of us to strengthen and accelerate our own recovery. This meeting opens Monday at 7 PM Pacific, 8 PM Arizona, or 10 Eastern Time and is open for approximately 1 hour.
If you are comfortable, please add your contact information to the chat.
Let's all introduce ourselves by first name only and indicate how we're feeling, using the feeling chart if desired.
In this meeting we use relaxed crosstalk rules: commenting on each other's shares is accepted, but we avoid judgments, evaluations, and unsolicited advice. Even when advice is requested, we prefer to offer our own experiences in similar situations. A simple guideline is to share from the "I" position: "I think..." "I feel...", "I once had to deal with...". We're here to share and learn from each other's experiences.
We work together as a group on the book, but each of us is welcome to work on their own outside the meeting and bring their work for review by the group.
Around 7:45 PM we will pause reading to allow for open sharing.
Now, let's get into our reading. We take turns volunteering to read, and once someone's done, feel free to share how it resonates with you. Ok, we're at page ___.
