Sponsoring Chronic Slippers: Love, Forgiveness, and the 5th Tradition

An Exploration of all 12 Steps in the Big Book and how they can apply to Chronic Slippers and the people trying to be of service to them.

Hosted by the Los Angeles Intergroup

Led by a veteran Overeaters Anonymous workshop leader who was a chronic slipper herself for a dozen years before getting abstinent 20 years ago, our November workshop is a daylong event for Chronic Slippers — both those who are slipping themselves AND those who want to be of service to those still struggling to get abstinent. Of necessity, we will be having a glorious conversation about love and forgiveness since people struggling to get abstinent are usually struggling to forgive someone or something. Three-part Big Book inventory template will be provided as we explore the power of inventories. Join us on November 7 for all or part of our daylong workshop from 9am – 6pm, Pacific time.

Bring your Big Books!

This is a workshop for:

• People who are sponsoring people in relapse
• People who are chronically relapsing themselves
• People who are struggling to forgive someone and paying the price for that self-centered resentment
• People who are struggling to forgive themselves and paying an even greater price for that self-centered resentment
• People who are concerned about the folks “sitting in the back of the room” that are dying (seriously—think about that) to get abstinent
• People who are interested in taking an in-depth look at the Step One chapters in the Big Book
• People who are abstinent but not at goal weight and want to be
• People who are still waiting on that psychic change or vital spiritual experience that Doctors Silkworth and Jung talked about
• You. Come and join us
