How To Organize Before A Meeting In Alcoholics Anonymous

By Christopher Snyder


Alcoholics anonymous are widely used program which is related to overcoming a persons addiction to alcohol or other chemical dependency. For many years since it has been established, the meetings have greatly helped numerous women and men to overcome their addiction and dependence to alcohols and start the beginning of their recovery process. Members will share their experiences, hope and strength with each other and support other members to recover from their dependence to alcohol. When it comes with leaving aa, individuals must participate in meetings to find other people who have the same problems and support themselves in overcoming difficulties and dependence.

The step meeting is considered as the traditional way. It has at least twelve step by step procedures that every person must follow. Every assembly will focus on one of each step. The steps will be discussed to very participants. Even though that not all members will get a chance to read the steps out loud, they will still have to discuss it in front of them all.

Learn the guidelines and rules. Do not be worried about the sessions. The meetings are not being supervised by doctors or religious beliefs. If a person does not want to say something, then respect it. They will respect everyone wishes and demands. A person is not incline to say something especially if they feel uncomfortable with it.

The speaker meeting is an assembly which requires one individual to do the talking on the entire session. The participants will not be participating actively. The speaker will fill the hour by speaking about the past experiences with addiction to alcohol and guide or instruct the members to follow it. Some will be made open to all the public.

The location and specific assembly can be formed by formal or casual meetings that are based depending on the location of event. Some could be located in churches but not totally engage in religious beliefs for the matter. Some assemblies will also encourage people to stop their addiction not only by alcohol but also drug and smoking addictions.

The open and closed type is for anybody who has the addiction but the discussions are strictly for members only. Some members do not follow the groups distinction and participants does not fully understand the methods. Newcomers will always be welcomed to participate as well.

The beginner meetings are for those people who have just begun the process of recovering. The persons are still new with the program and wanted to learn more from it. The structure of meeting and agendas are still the same as the traditional types.

Get referrals from your loved ones and friends. They may have already undergone the whole process before and they can share their experiences and knowledge about the procedure. They can offer some valuable insights for your cause.

Price will not be a problem or hindrance when participating in the group. This does not require any finances. However, every member can still contribute a few amount of money to spend for their assembly and other improvements needed. They can also ask for a local contribution from other people.
