THE QUOTE: Most of us sense that real tolerance of other people's shortcomings and viewpoints and a respect for their opinions are attitudes which make us more useful to others. Our very lives , as ex-problem drinkers, depend upon our constant thought of others and how we may help meet their needs. - Pg. 19-20 - There Is A Solution

THE CHAKRA:Throat: Blue: Tone GThroat Chakra, 5th ChakraThe Throat Chakra is the fifth chakra and it is the first of the higher or spiritual chakras on the "chakra ladder". This chakra is located in the region of neck and shoulders and its color is blue. The gift of this chakra is accepting your originality, expressing your authentic voice and speaking your truth. The energy of this chakra allows you to seek knowledge that is true, beyond limitations of time and space, beyond cultural and family conditioning. The main challenge for the fifth chakra is doubt and negative thinking. When you gain and verify your knowledge through meditation and direct experience, then doubt and negativity are removed.FOR YOUR OWN G NOTE CRYSTAL SINGING BOWL

THE WHY:Every morning, at 4th Dimension Sobriety, we ask community members to participate in a non-denominational, non-religious, practice of group mediation and contemplation. Our mediation is based on the Upon Awakening, which is found on page 86 of the book Alcoholic Anonymous and conclude with 11th step prayer (The Saint Francis Prayer).
Exploring spirituality in the 11th Step can be a wonderfully illuminating process. This non-denominational, non-religious, practice of meditation is rooted in the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous. The 11th step helps us develop a our conscious contact with God, resulting in a life rooted in a firm foundation. This daily practice leads to emotional balance and stability as we nurture our spirit and minds. 
THE PROCESS:1) On Awakening...followed by silence and reflection 2) Reflect on a reading from the Big Book of Alcoholic Anonymous...followed by silence and reflection 3) The Saint Francis Prayer
