I am approaching three months sobriety and after the two month point, I started increasing my time and commitment to a meditation practice. I am now a daily 30 minute minimum meditator and it is helping immensely. My thoughts are slowed, and I can see the roots of my desire urges with more clarity. Also, an alcohol thought is released in the same way as any thought, feeling and sensation, so it has lost its weight now. I highly recommend it to help anyone in their journey. Best part is it fits in fine with any kind of coping, therapy, exercise or recovery program that you may be using. Thats the point of it; contradiction starts to fall away and so do the struggles. And compassion and presence are revealed.
