No reason you can't use a combination of things, I know I do. SMART meetings are completely compatible with AA, or complimentary rather, but AVRT less so. It didn't stop me taking advantage of both though
I would love to get into meditation but it isn't something I have done much of yet apart from just at home. I am sure a lot of the philosophy would be beneficial to sobriety and I think there are quite a few buddhists knocking round here...
