What is an AA Meeting?

The Best Method of Choosing an AA Meeting in Ruthven, Iowa

It is important when coming to AA that you choose a meeting that is best for where you are at in sobriety. The first type of meeting is a new comers meeting and is not only for new comers but is a meeting that encourages them to share their stories and accept help. The next type of meeting would be a single gender meeting, which is only open to one gender. A Closed meeting simply means the group is solely focused on conversations regarding how to maintain sobriety from alcohol. Talking about any other illicit substances is not allowed. A Step Study is a gathering that is simply focused on a single step and spoken about in length regarding the best approach to working this step and applying it to your daily life. Traditions meetings are based off the 12 traditions of AA. The 12 traditions are different than the 12 steps. The traditions are built to maintain order throughout AA and holding each group accountable to these traditions is why you can attend a meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous anywhere in the world to hear the same message.

How to Get The Most From an Alcoholics Anonymous Meeting in Ruthven, Iowa

In order to get the most out of your first AA meeting you should keep an open minded. Everyone had preconceived notions of what these meeting were and generally it is the same misconception. The best advice I ever got was to sit down, shut up, pay attention to the message, and modestly ask for help. At any meeting, there will be the same 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 meeting you choose to pick as your first.
