The Circle Of Life workbook is book two in a three book recovery series dealing with sexual addiction. Here in book two we discuss and work through the 12 Step recovery process.
Sex addiction is a disease of the body, mind, and spirit. This is the experience of many of us who are in recovery from sexual addiction, our strength is the result of being sponsored through the 12 Steps, and our hope is in recovery from this addiction by emulating the success of those who have gone before us.
The Circle Of Life was developed to help with the basics of recovery. A strong emphasis is placed on obtaining and utilizing a 12 Step program sponsor. We stress attendance of sexual addiction support meetings and developing a support system. The intention of this workbook is to aid recovering sex addicts in working through the 12 Steps with a sponsor. This workbook does not address formal religion or dogma. This process of recovery, we believe through our own experience, is spiritual in nature and change through guidance of a power greater than ourselves becomes the key to recovery.
The first three chapters give information on our addiction, seeking help for recovery from sex addiction, the feelings that are associated with coming into sexual sobriety, and withdrawal from active sexual compulsive behavior. Chapters four through twelve are dedicated to working the 12 Steps.
It is possible to recover from sex addiction. Recovery is possible if one has the capacity to be honest – honest with themselves and honest with their recovering friends.
By utilizing the tools and by working the 12 Steps in this workbook with a sponsor, we believe that it is possible to get and stay sober from compulsive sexual behavior. By applying the steps we have worked, and by practicing these principles in our life on a daily basis, an abundant life is available to us
