The program of recovery creates the space for one to have or develop spirituality. The means by which this is accomplished is through having one create a sense of connectedness with others and the community. In active addiction one feels alone and isolated in the world and as a result has little if any true spirituality. Through attraction to and participation in recovery, the program offers one the possibility of experiencing unity, fellowship and of being of service to others. As one begins to develop a sense of being connected to others, he or she begins to experience less isolation and more relatedness. As this sense of relatedness expands ones sense of spirituality also grows. Ones experience of spirituality is directly related to his belief in his relatedness to others, the community, nature, the universe, etc.
