"The idea of a spiritual awakening takes many different forms in the different personalities that we find in the fellowship."
Basic Text, p. 49

Though we all work the same steps, each of us experiences the spiritual awakening resulting from them in our own way. The shape that spiritual awakening takes in our lives will vary, depending on who we are.

For some of us, the spiritual awakening promised in the Twelfth Step will result in a renewed interest in religion or mysticism. Others will awaken to an understanding of the lives of those around them, experiencing empathy perhaps for the first time. Still others will realize that the steps have awakened them to their own moral or ethical principles. Most of us experience our spiritual awakening as a combination of these things, each combination as unique as the individual who's been awakened.

If there are so many different varieties of spiritual awakenings, how do we know if we've truly had one? The Twelfth Step provides us with two signs: We've found principles capable of guiding us well, the kind of principles we want to practice in all our affairs. And we've begun to care enough about other addicts to freely share with them the experience we've had. No matter what the details of our awakenings are like, we all are given the guidance and the love we need to live fulfilling, spiritually oriented lives.

Just for Today: Regardless of its particular shape, my spiritual awakening has helped me fill my place in the world with love and life. For that, I am grateful.

If you have a drug problem, or just relapsed, our goal is to help you find recovery by connecting with other recovering addicts so that you can stop using drugs, lose the desire to use, and find a new way to live.  This Website is designed to inform other individuals and organizations as well, so they can direct using addicts to find the help they need in Narcotics Anonymous.  It is also a resource to those in service who are committed to helping the addict who still suffers by making recovery available and accessible to anyone with a desire to stay clean

The purpose of this website is to provide accurate and up-to-date information about Narcotics Anonymous in Sarasota and Manatee Counties. By making this information available on the internet, we hope to make ourselves more accessible to those with a focus on attraction rather than promotion. It is not our intention to promote the NA program, but it is our hope that those who are attracted to our way of life will be able to find us easily. Click here for site policies.
