Saturday, February 20, 2021 ~ Emotional Sobriety: The Path to Optimal Recovery
In this four hour workshop Dr. Berger and Herb K. will describe and explore the important concept of emotional sobriety. They believe it is the key to optimal living and full recovery. The workshop will begin by unpacking Bill Wilson’s letter on emotional sobriety, and then they will explore how to make an emotional dependency inventory and integrate this skill into the practice of Step 10. Join these two pioneers in learning about emotional sobriety and how it can help you take the next step in your recovery.
Saturday, May 1, 2021 ~ Emotional Sobriety and the 12 Steps
In this four hour workshop, Dr. Berger and Herb K. will unpack each of the 12 Steps focusing on how they help us achieve and sustain emotional growth. This very powerful experience will give both the long timer and the newcomer an opportunity to look at the 12 Step process from a fresh perspective. The 12 Steps, when worked sequentially, create a powerful personal transformation – a radical change in the way we think, feel and behave. They also create a template for emotional health. They help us to discover and recover our true self, live with balance and humility, to be the determining force in our own lives.
Saturday, July 24, 2021 ~ Emotional Sobriety and 12 Core Principles
Dr. Berger and Herb K. will unpack 12 Core Principles of Emotional Sobriety that sustain personal growth. This powerful experience will give each participant an opportunity to look at the current quality of life from a fresh perspective and have a new experience. Transformation creates a new attitude and experience towards ourselves, others and Reality. This workshop creates a template for emotional growth helping us: discern and manifest our true self, identify our internal obstacles to joy by practicing these Principles, live with balance, humility and vitality, and be the determining force in our own lives and a positive force in our community.
