	Principles of the 12 Steps This area is for specific, topic oriented discussion of the principles contained in the 12 steps of recovery. The last part of the 12 step says, "practised these principles in all our affairs". What are these principles, and how are they practised?	10	21	Re: Integrate the Twelve Steps on Retreat!

	The Funnel - Long Term Sobriety Issues This area is for members with long term (multiple year) recovery and the issues they face. There exists a phenomenon called, "The Funnel" happens from about 7-11 years, but it can occur in later sobriety. When in the funnel, things can get slippery pretty fast. Many people with long term sobriety do not survive the funnel. Watch the sobriety countdown at any convention for proof.	17	64	Re: The Funnel Apr 3, 9:13 PM by Bruce
