In reply to Tom Black. The higher power could be whatever the individual see that as. It’s to acknowledge there is a power greater than ourselves…this can be seen as love and support from a group of strangers. While in certain pieces of text mentions G-d, higher power, etc. step one states came to believe in a higher power greater than myself… When our spirituality grows and we start to heal from self limiting beliefs…isn’t that when we start to believe in a higher power greater then ourselves? Could that higher power be empowerment?

How can I learn about programs like these in an area I live! I’m in need of such support

I agree! I’ve had several different types of trauma in my life but I decided I was exhausted and ready to make changes. Counseling combined with ART and yoga have been truly life changing.

I’m genuinely glad you were helped by a 12 step program, but I feel strongly that 12-step programs are inherently problematic because they place the focus on an external make believe “higher power”. That’s the exact opposite of what you’re recommending in this post.
