Alateen: For Young People in Al-Anon
|
Service work:
A way members can build self-esteem and self worth even in
the mitts of chaos and degradation.
Journaling:
An exercise that helps members to express themselves safely
and clear the mind.
Prayer:
An exercise in faith, trust and letting go (of control) so
members may become Happy, Joyance and Free.
Meditation:
An exercise in quieting the mind and body so members may
mend their broken spirit.
Acceptance:
A way members let people, places and things be the way they
are; without trying to change the outcomes.
Gratitude:
An exercise in focusing on what is good rather than on what
is not the way we want.

Best thoughts and efforts
have not worked. What works
for others?
|
Meetings:
Were members find out that they are not alone, that others
have issues similar to theirs. Where they may share their experience, strength
and hope freely without fear.
Literature:
A way members may get experience, strength and hope from
other members when a meeting is not available.
Sponsorship:
A two way relationship between members, helping each other
find their way through the program and
through life, by sharing their experience, strength and hope with
one another.
Steps:
A guide for individual members; to help them learn and grow
with-in themselves.
Traditions:
A guide for relating to other groups and Al-Anon as a whole.
Slogans:
Simple sayings that help members act and not re-act in times
of crisis.

Using several of these
every day,
with help from someone
who already uses them,
may change someone’s life!
