What is an AA Meeting?

An Alcoholics Anonymous Meeting is a place where alcoholics and people who struggle with substance abuse gather for one hour to share their experience, strength, and hope. AA Members who attend an Alcoholic’s Anonymous meeting in Cresco, Iowa will share their experience getting sober through their personal anecdotes with anyone working on their recovery journey. There is no religious, social or economic association for membership, just the aspiration to stop drinking, and live a happy & healthy life without alcohol.

How to Choose an AA Meeting in Cresco, Iowa

It is important when coming to AA that you select a meeting that is suited for where you are at in sobriety. The 1st type of 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 ask for help. The next 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 closed to any discussion that does not involve how to maintain sobriety from alcohol. Talking about any other substance use addictions is not allowed. A Step Study is a meeting 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 revolve around the 12 traditions of AA. The 12 traditions are different than the 12 steps. The traditions were created to maintain order throughout AA and maintaining accountability to these traditions is the reason you can attend an Alcoholics Anonymous Meeting anywhere in across the globe to hear the same message.

How to Get The Most From a meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous in Cresco, Iowa

The best way to benefit the most from 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, stop talking, listen to the message, and humbly ask for help. Regardless of the 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 person suffering from alcoholism which you will find in any meeting you choose as your first.
