Hey girl congratulations saw this was posted about 3 months ago how are you doing? Congratulations again keep it up girl the answers are in the steps praying for you
Listening to Sandy B talk really is a game changer for, me LET GO, LET GOD, I apply this to all my problems now and there always seems to be a solution now and if there isn't that's ok too. THANX SANDY.
fantastic message. So many just don’t drink & go to meetings. As a real alcoholic, i know that's not the solution, Letting Go is the be all & end all of recovery. God bless you all in spirit x
I absolutely love this man! He so calm,and poised. I found out I use meditation daily,my spiritual life is enhanced in every aspect every suggestion that Aa offers is magnified! I love the aa structure, the road map to freedom, to what God means to me.
SIMPLE PROGRAM FOR COMPLICATED PEOPLE,EASY DOES IT, ONE DAY AT A TIME, GRATEFUL TO BE IN THE FELLOWSHIP NOT ON THE SHIP IN CASE IT SINKS, I COULD NEVER REPAY AA FOR THE LIFE I LIVE TODAY THEREFORE I AM RESPONSIBLE, I HAVE TO REMEMBER THAT BEFORE ANYTHING I'M AN ALCOHOLIC,GLAD NOT LIVING IN THE INSANITY WORLD! I LIVE JUST FOR TODAY ON LIFE'S TERMS FOR A SICK ALCOHOLIC LIKE ME ONE IS TOO MUCH AND A MILLION IS NOT ENOUGH KEEP COMING BACK UNTIL THE MIRACLE HAPPENS
I 'took a break' from my recovery for a while because things got better. But of course life always catch back up with me. So I am remembering my need to keep coming back. Glad you are here.
Sherry, most of us “struggled” because we were focused on “trying not to drink”. We have to focus on living differently. During my first four years in the fellowship, I attended a meeting nearly everyday. Sometimes two, sometimes three. That was the foundation for me to begin living in the solution, instead of the problem. My life is unbelievably good today, and I celebrated 25 years on May 8th, 2019. I sincerely wish you all the best! “Go to meetings, clean house, and help others”.
One of my all time favorite speakers! He speaks from beyond the problem. Sandy has Seen the ultimate, unseen part of recovery, the part everyone looks for but no one can describe - it can't be put in words. But speaking from that vantage point can produce immensely useful words nonetheless! ☺️
I am very grateful for Sandy and the way he delivered the message. He lived in Tampa, I lived in Miami, so you can imagine how surprised I was when after telling my sponsor how much I liked Sandy, my sponsor says, oh he used to be my sponsor. It’s a very small world but the AA world is even smaller!
i just love his shares , really helps me in my recovery. by the time his share is over , i realise that i had a laugh and learned something extremely important for my ongoing journey. Grateful to Sandy for leave these shares for us .. Thanks to the person who took the time to gather these tapes and uploading them!
Hy guys, if someone of you wants to make a big service for members of other countries you could make a transcript of the talk. In return for I commit myself to produce the subtitles in spanish and french. Thanks

Letting go is getting much easier knowing higher power is always there... I'm an alcoholic of the hopeless variety.. higher power got me sober to begin with.. thank you
I tried to stop listening to this because I thought I wouldn't get anything from it....until it was exactly what I needed to hear...and I let go....yep, I'm still selfish.
Thank you Sandy B. you have good messages, i love hearing about the steps ,so true just ,Let go and Let God like you said and everything will truly work out in God's time . I love AA my life truly changed because i let go .😏
Thank you UA-cam and its posters for all these wonderful AA talks. If you have a cell phone and some free time, you can go to an AA meeting here - any time, any where!
Mr Smith Well said. It’s understandable - we care about life, and have deep feelings about our experience of it and yet the reality seems to be that we do not own it.
Love it very powerful I am in very tough part of my life and I can't tell you how much all this help . Trust God let go . I always think what are we , what we doing here and I need answers this does help
am latino from nc.and i found this incredible masterpiece of speech litten him make me change all my negative idea and put my life to think and motivate to seek GOD more then anything else H.24
I am an avid #MentalHealthAwareness advocate and performer, and I love this so much. I travel the country trying to bring that awareness on stages, in classrooms, hospitals, and on my UA-cam channel, so I get excited when I see other advocates. 💙❤
I can stay sober, for a period of time but I will be miserable unless I practice the spiritual principles outlined in the big book of Alcoholics Anonymous

I need to hear this today. clean since 8/21/12 but man sobriety is tricky one. i am having severe relationship problems in 2 areas. there is no magic here i know. just a dr-logging. new job and its PT which is good but it cuts into my evening meetings. I have to use the program to get thru these stressors. Most of my doing and my side of the street. With all rationalization aside i got to pray for them and my mechanics of life. Turn it over i am sure. thanks all.
Man here I am one year later after this posting on 8/21/18 I hope you came through your struggle I hope you gave it up to god and I hope you're celebrating another year if recovery. If thats not the case I hope you see this and know that you have what it takes to come back and do it again. Look towards the steps for help. Bless you.
From somebody who is Let It Go constantly I can tell you right now sometimes it comes back to me and it is a daily reprieve to keep on letting go and letting go again. I am a Nobody But then again I try to tell myself because I'm supposed to be positive and God is my identity I tell myself that I am with somebody not a nobody.

I am 6 months sober and I have done this with my faith in God. But I am struggling with staying sober and I don’t know what to do. I want to drink but I don’t. I feel really lost lonely and not sure what to do now. I am the all knowing. And fighting with surrendering.

All that matters is right now... I am sober right now, I am trusting God right now, I am reasonably happy right now.
I am so grateful for the 12 step movement that has helped me tremendously. 7 years sober and it truly is a miracle. ♥️
Ive been listening to these talks on this channel for 10 years. It has helped my sobriety greatly. Thank you.
My first day sober. This helps me as we don't have open meetings at this time. I am very sick but I have faith that I can do this one day at a time.
We can do it together one day at a time
You can so do this!! These shares are keeping me sober during lockdown!! Praying for you

Hi all new at this
This guy will help!!
Sobriety is a nice byproduct of a spiritual experience.
I heard this over and over when I have a difficult time letting go. He descibres so well the journey throught the steps with God.
Sandy B is one of the most brilliant minds of all times. He drives a message of hope for alcoholism & their families with humor and humility.
An A.A. friend showed me these recordings. I'm so grateful ❤️
Likewise, that's exactly why I'm here today.. She led me To one and I kept going ❤❤

This program did not work for me until I gave it all to God thank God for AA I struggled for 30 years
We were faced with a decision: Either God was everything, or God was nothing. What was our choice to be?

52 years old and on day 3, sober life just was never meant for me. Ty for the video thought. It’s a beautiful sentiment
It’s one day at a time, the great creator of the world will help you if you seek it
Keep on putting one front step after another and God bless.
Keep coming back
Admit in the deepest recesses of your soul you are powerless over alcohol and your life is unmanageable and find another alcoholic to help
I wish every AA group promoted this amazing tool, it has helped me out so much. Love Odomtology

One of the best speakers out there
Oh God, such loving wisdom from this guy.
I'm 5 years sober and this is exactly my problem still.... only God can heal my mind...in recovery.
BRIAN, CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR 5 YEARS. KEEP FOLLOWING THE 12 STEPS DAILY.
Letting go is getting much easier knowing higher power is always there... I'm an alcoholic of the hopeless variety.. higher power got me sober to begin with.. thank you
Keep doing the work, and you will watch miracles happen ♥️
I've been listening to Sandy B podcasts....absoultley hilarious.
So good!
I’m so grateful for this channel.
Thank you. 🙏😃
So much of this is the answer. Let Go and Let God says it all.
My recovery is basically in NA but my sponsor suggested this guy and I need to admit that is so useful
I can relate soooo blessed to be apart of AA!!!!💜💜😇😇
I tried to stop listening to this because I thought I wouldn't get anything from it....until it was exactly what I needed to hear...and I let go....yep, I'm still selfish.
The sober part has come easy but the staying sober is the challenge along with character defects
Staying Sober is a trick!! Always just for Today!
I learn so much from this guy

I love this talk. I am not wrong, but maybe it’s my perspective that’s wrong. For someone who has always felt wrong. These are two different things.❤️
Thank you UA-cam and its posters for all these wonderful AA talks. If you have a cell phone and some free time, you can go to an AA meeting here - any time, any where!
I'm slowly getting it! But the fear of letting go is terrifying
Mr Smith Well said. It’s understandable - we care about life, and have deep feelings about our experience of it and yet the reality seems to be that we do not own it.
YES, IT IS FRIGHTENING TO LET GO BUT HORRIFIC TO HOLD ON, THAT IS MY OPINION. GOOD LUCK, MR. SMITH.

Pray for the willingness to be willing! 😊
I dont understand.
Letting go??? I dont get it
Every time I listen to his message I learn and I love his humor
