LifeRing's 3-S philosophy of Sobriety, Secularity, and Self-Direction

SOBRIETY. We feel that to remain in recovery, we must make sobriety the top priority in our lives and maintain complete abstinence from alcohol, illicit drugs, or the abuse of prescription medication. LifeRing recognizes Medically Assisted Recovery (MAR) as a valid form of recovery.

SECULARITY. Out of respect for people of all beliefs, faiths, and world views, we conduct our meetings in a secular fashion, which means that we do not talk about religious or spiritual methods of recovery.

SELF-DIRECTION: We rely on our own personal efforts, the help of recovery groups like LifeRing, experts in the recovery field, and sympathetic family members and friends to help us in our recovery journey. LifeRing does offer a book that may help, Recovery By Choice, A Workbook - $25.00. This book offers a structured approach to building an abstinence-based “Personal Recovery Program” (PRP).
