    Today we are going to take a look at step one of the 12 steps of AA and Alanon; yes, they are the same for both programs. Using insight from the "Paths to Recovery" book and personal experience I will discuss step one in detail. We explore some thought provoking questions which will help get us thinking about our habits and behaviors. Perhaps you will be able to relate to some of my experiences. I have linked some questions for you to work through on your own. I truly hope that you will have a few a-ha moments.
