Recovering in Unity
Recovering in Unity is sponsored by Unity Church of San Antonio. This recovery group is based on Unity principles. It is open to all who struggle with a compulsion that results in separation from others, regardless of what the compulsion is.
Join Us!
Friday's at 5:30 p.m.
In the Unity Heights Community Center, 8103 Broadway, San Antonio, Texas 78209.
Recovering in Unity, a pathway to recovering our true and Infinite Self. Wherever you are along your path, we welcome you to connect in community as we support one another’s claiming of our unlimited Inner Power.
We believe the cause of all unhealthy habits, including addictions, is a sense of separation. Our natural state is Unity, or Oneness, which means we cannot be separate from our Source (aka Higher Power) or our Self (our true Divine Nature). However, we have learned to survive painful experiences by disconnecting from our Source and our Self, leading to habits that disconnect us from those who have loved and supported us. We have suffered from a sense of separation leading to and feeding fear, resentment, shame and guilt, along with a host of other feelings. Whatever compulsive and addictive behavior has resulted from our suffering, we share the same root cause and the same true desire for freedom.
Wherever you are along your path of recovery, we welcome you to study with us as we utilize the Twelve Step principles interpreted in light of our growing understanding or our true nature, which is One -- one with Source, one with Self, and therefore one with all. We lead with the agreement that the Source or Infinite Power is not outside of us but lies within and is our true nature. We identify ourselves with the spiritual attributes we have seen displayed in people we admire as spiritual leaders.
We believe that, when combined in an active program of recovery, the Twelve Steps and Unity principles can help us rediscover the inner strength and courage necessary to live fully and freely.
