Program preview:

Twelve Stepping Your Body Image

What has been your relationship to your body?  Disconnection?  Self-hatred? Obsession?  Hear experience, strength and hope from other members.

How has body obsession affected your life:  ie, socializing, going to beach or pool, intimacy, self-confidence?

This workshop looks at Body Image through each of the 12 Steps.  Activities include:  reading of OA literature*, prayer, writing and affirmations.  Limited sharing.  More.

Reflect.  Listen to experience, strength and hope of other members.  Add your Voice of Recovery to carry the message.

Leave with your own Step 1, 2 and 3 writings, your own 4th Step body image inventory, Step 6 and 7 writings to be shared later with sponsor or recovery buddy, written Step 9 amends to yourself, your own Step 10 affirmation, a Step 11 letter from your own HP and more.
