What is an AA Meeting?

AA is a program organized to help those who struggle from alcohol abuse get sober. Attendance is free at an AA Meeting in Monterey, California as the funding is voluntarily contributed from its members.

AA is one of most commonly recognized programs in the United States and around the world that helps countless men and women overcome their alcohol dependance in the pursuit of lifelong recovery.

How to Choose an Alcoholics Anonymous Meeting in Monterey, California

It is important when coming to Alcoholics Anonymous that you choose a meeting that is suited for where you are at in sobriety. The first type of AA meeting is a new comers meeting and is not solely for new comers but is a meeting that encourages them to speak their truth and reach out for help. Another type of meeting would be a single gender meeting, which is only open to either men or women. A Closed meeting simply means the group is solely focused on conversations regarding how to stay sober from alcohol. Talking about any other substance use addictions is not allowed. A Step Study is a gathering that is simply focused on a single step and discussed in length regarding the best approach to working this step and applying it to your daily life. Traditions meetings revolve around the 12 traditions of Alcoholics Anonymous. Not to be confused with the 12 steps.

How to Get The Most From a meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous in Monterey, California

In order to get the most out of your first AA meeting you should remain open minded. We all had an idea of what these meeting were and generally it is the same misconception. The best advice I ever got was to sit down, shut up, listen to the message, and modestly ask for help. Regardless of the meeting, that one thing that won’t change is the message of recovering from a hopeless state of mind. The process of recovering from that hopeless state is in asking for help from another alcoholic which you will find in any AA meeting you choose to pick as your first.
