Tammy,
the workbook people are talking about is "Recovery by Choice", written by Martin Nicolaus, founder of LifeRing.
it is full of self-exploratory questions, and though i didn't answer them in writing, i did read the whole thing a couple of times. found it very very useful, stimulating and provocative. you can access a sample chapter online, i think The LifeRing Home Page | Sobriety, Secularity, Self-Help.
when i first got sober, i read sobriety stuff voraciously, and this is a great book, well worth the investment of time and money. you can order it on-line.
i'm in Vancouver, Canada, and we had no workbook meetings. so i went to the discussion one that was available at the time.
the format there (as is usual) is "how was your week", the focus being on the last few days and upcoming challenges in the next little while. crosstalk is an encouraged feature of LR meetings, and what's meant by that is basically a conversation with feedback to and from each other.
sounds like that is what your meeting was, Tammy.
