Frequently Asked Questions
The 12 Step Journal is perfect for anyone who is in Twelve Step addiction recovery. As the tools and principles of addiction recovery are consistent across fellowships, the Journal will benefit anyone, despite their particular addiction(s).
What’s more, it will benefit people at whatever stage they are at with their recovery – whether they are at rock bottom, early in their journey, or have been in recovery for many years.
If used every day, the Journal lasts for 6 months. However none of us are perfect, and the journal is undated, so it's no problem at all if you miss a day here and there, just pick up where you left off.
The 12 Step Journal is a daily guided journal for anyone in Twelve Step recovery. We all know the things we should be doing each day to maintain our sobriety and spiritual condition, and we know they work, but actually doing them consistently each day can be challenging. That’s where the Journal comes in. Created around key tools of the program, it provides a daily blueprint for recovery and serenity. Each day you’ll be lovingly guided to live the program, it’s never been easier to experience the freedom and joy that Twelve Step recovery offers.
Consistency is the key, and it only takes a few minutes in the morning and evening. Exactly how you use the journal is up to you, and a bit of experimentation is a good thing. One way to use the journal is:
Morning: Begin with prayer and meditation, and then with a clear mind look ahead and plan your day. Do your daily reading and spend a minute thinking about what you’ve read. Write down what’s on your mind, and use the daily reflection at the top of the page as food for thought. Decide how and if you are going to incorporate the other tools into your day, thinking about which ones would be most helpful for you that day. And, finally, ask yourself what you need to accept today.
Evening: At the end of the day, complete your personal inventory and then tick off the tools you have used that day, making a quick note of which ones you may want to use tomorrow. Then finish by jotting down some things you are grateful for from the day and in your life generally.
These 8 brief worksheets give you the opportunity to examine some key areas of your addiction and recovery. The purpose is to complete them once, carefully and honestly. At the end of each week, as you’re working through the journal, you’ll be prompted to review some of these worksheets. By doing this, you’ll keep these important realities fresh in your mind, helping you to stay motivated and on track with your recovery activities. You can also update them where appropriate as you move ahead in your recovery and your understanding grows.
Sound like too much work? Don't worry, just like everything else in the journal, these are entirely optional. Do what works for you.
Absolutely! The 12 Step Journal is ideal for use between sponsors and sponsees. The insights you’ll gain from using the journal will make your sponsor’s job easier, and provide an honest overview of your progress. Many sponsors recommend this journal to their sponsees.
