Creating Optimal Health Naturally!


The twelve steps for Addictions are as follows:

  1. Admit that we are powerless over alcohol & Drugs and that our lives have become unmanageable.
  2. Come to believe that a Power greater than ourselves can restore us to sanity.
  3. Turn our will and our lives over to the care of a Higher Power.
  4. Make a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.
  5. Admit to a Higher Power, to ourselves and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.
  6. Be entirely ready to have a Higher Power remove all these defects of character.
  7. Humbly ask a Higher Power to remove our shortcomings.
  8. Make a list of all persons we have harmed, and be willing to make amends to them all.
  9. Make direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.
  10. Continue to take personal inventory and when we are wrong promptly admit it.
  11. Seek through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with a Higher Power, praying only for knowledge of the Higher Power's will for us and the power to carry that out.
  12. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, try to carry this message to other alcoholics, and to practice these principles in all of our affairs.
