What the Serenity Prayer Means in Recovery

The Serenity Prayer is a cornerstone of recovery, reminding us to focus on what we can control, accept what we cannot, and seek clarity in the difference. It is often recited in meetings and used as a daily tool for spiritual grounding.

In addition to the Serenity Prayer, many in recovery reflect on the AA Promises, which describe the transformation that comes from working the Twelve Steps.
