It's amazing. Three days of working on what I have learned about AVRT and I already feel better about not drinking than 2.5 months of another way. Before, I was always questioning if X was the right thing to do for my sobriety. Now that I have made a pact with myself that I will never drink again alot of challenges I had before just disappear. I still have some residual guilt left over from another program but I have realized that is just my "beast" talking.

I have also started to try and change where my beast's voice comes from and move it from in my head to down into my chest. I feel like it will help me look at the beast as a more gut feeling than a rational and wise thought. I know people do this kind of thing for anger management etc.
