All facets

    “it can be applied to all facets of life” (ODAT, 17 May)

The first thing to do when faced with a problem is to recall the principle that the problem can be solved, and, moreover, using Al-Anon principles.

There are not thirty-six principles in the Steps, Traditions, and Concepts but thirty-six sets of principles, which are articulated with each other to produce a single whole.

I’ve not found a difficulty since I joined Al-Anon that has not yielded to the application of these principles to establish first of all the attitudes to adopt and second of all the actions to take.
