AV is any positive thought, feeling ,or image of future drinking and any doubt in the ability to remain abstinent.

The Beast is the desire for alcohol , AV is the bark of the beast that works to indulge the Beast’s desire.

A commitment to abstinence, the Big Plan , once honestly made literally means you consciously decided to never again put alcohol in your system. If you make that decision then logically the residual desire for more alcohol isn’t ‘coming from You’ , that desire itself is IT.

AVRT , Addictive Voice Recognition Technique, allows for isolation , recognition and separation from the desire and enables one to live contentedly in the face of residual desire.
