But spirituality is an integral part of any Twelve Step program for chronic illness. Why? Because to find the serenity and strength we need to manage this disease, we need to find a Power beyond ourselves. Many of us already believe in a Higher Power we call Godthough our faith may have been sorely tested by finding out we have COPD. If we don't have a belief in a Power greater than ourselves, it's important we at least stay open-minded about the concept. Even the slightest amount of faith that a Higher Power can and will help us is better than no faith at all.
If we think this is the case, we dismiss the Twelve Step program because we think it won't work for us. Or, if we are religious, we may view the Steps as some sort of cult. We need to keep an open mind. " Such people have found that the Second Step gave them hopeand there is hope for us, too, if we come to believe that the source of power we need lies outside ourselves. If we were to ask all the COPD sufferers who have been restored to sanity how they identify their Higher Power, we would probably hear answers as varied as humankind's ideas about faith.
A person who lives by the Steps could be Jewish, Christian, Hindu, Muslim, Buddhist, agnostic, or atheist. If the Twelve Steps are not a religious program, then they certainly are a spiritual one. The Steps echo what writer Aldous Huxley called the "perennial philosophy"a core set of ideas and practices shared by many religious traditions. The Steps have one major concern, and that is human transformation. Page xix Many of you may already be intimately familiar with a Twelve Step program. Those of you who aren't will discover that it offers a new approach to living.
