i think it depends on which quotes are read in the b.b. to newcomers... but y'know what? you're right, tyler, i haven't been through any type of recovery but aa. so really, you were right on to call me out about that.
i've been doing this meditation where when you inhale you say "i inhale and calm my body" and when you exhale you say "as i exhale i smile." there's a little more to it, but those two lines are helping me a lot these days.
