With this box you can give yourself a pat on the back. The design says it all. Wahoo, yippee, congrats, hooray, and way to go. Little notes of accomplishments go along way. Boosting your self-esteem is not ego. We learn to love ourselves when we say good things to ourselves. With this box, you can put the written affirmations or encouragements in the box and pick them out daily or throughout the day. See what your Higher Power wants to say to you.
Twelve Step programs are spiritual in their design. We as Alcoholics/Addicts must turn our attention to something other than human aid and for us to let go of the controls we think we have over people, place, and things. For the most part we can pray, light candles, meditate, or go to spiritual retreats to learn how to turn it over to a Higher Power. However, in recovery we learn the power of pen to paper. Therefore, we have God Boxes. The boxes are a tool to set your prayers, goals, pain, fear, ambitions, ad infinitum. We learn to turn it over by writing it down and putting it in a box. We learn to let go and let God.
