Schedule

Registration and Fellowship Greeting and speaking with old & new recovering friends.
11:15 AM -12:15 PM
Opening Meeting / Keynote Speaker(s) on the Theme
12:30 PM -1:30 PM
Session 1: Humor in Recovery. Sex & love addiction can cause so much pain and suffering and sometimes death. What is so
funny about that? Many find that by sharing our antics/stories we put a light on just how extreme our thinking/actions can be in the midst of addiction. In recovery we can laugh with each other, keep things in perspective, and experience new emotions. This session is about how bringing humor and laughing into our lives has played a part in our recovery and healing.
1:45 – 2:45 PM
Session 2: Acting Out/In vs. Recovery. “Acting Out” is to engage in addictive behavior. “Acting In” is to engage in actions that are isolating or withdrawing in nature. Both reflect avoidant behaviors that are harmful to us. Each person in S.L.A.A acts “out” and/or “in” differently, but with help from a Higher Power, our sponsor, and recovering addicts we can move to recovery too. The S.L.A.A. program can help us stay sober and start living a life without active addiction. This session is about how we recognize our addictive patterns and admit powerlessness over them. That allows us to get help to stay sober from our patterns and start living a life of recovery.
3:00 – 4:00 PM
Session 3: Recovery: the Promises. When we are more active in recovery by working the Steps, some of the promises can start to occur even if we haven’t finished Step 9. This session is about how the promises have manifested in our lives and what we do to keep the promises alive today.
This event is open to anyone who identifies as a sex and/or love addict or is interested in finding out about recovery from this addiction in the S.L.A.A. program.
Interested in doing service work at this event? Ask us how you can get involved!
We look forward to seeing you soon!

Retreat flyer Drop the Rock May 16 thru 18-2025 Glastonbury Abbey

In this retreat, our focus will be on the profound impact of Steps 6 and 7 in
guiding us towards genuine freedom. We invite you to join us for an immersive exploration of these often-hurried steps.
During this retreat, we will delve into the insights provided by the second
edition of Drop The Rock book, authored by Bill P., Todd W., and Sara S., along with SLAA materials. Our goal is to facilitate a deep understanding of the transformative power through these steps, fostering personal growth and the liberation from character defects.
This recovery retreat provides a supportive environment for reflection,
learning, and connection. Join us for this deep dive into self-discovery and
healing as we work together to navigate the path to true freedom.
What is the Drop the Rock concept?
• The concept of “dropping the rock” is a metaphor for releasing
resentments, destructive patterns, and character defects.
• It’s a core part of Twelve Step recovery.
• It relates to Steps 6 and 7, which focus on asking a higher power for help.
Why is “dropping the rock” important?
• It can lead to lasting change and authentic recovery.
• It can create a “ripple effect” of healing and positivity on others.
• It can help people move forward unburdened by their past.
Participants will:
• Discuss the story of “Drop the Rock”.
• Share their own experiences with “dropping the rock”.
• Explore the principles behind Steps 6 and 7 and how Step 10
compliments our maintenance of recovery.
• Learn how to apply these principles to our own lives.
The process of identifying these tendencies and stopping the behaviors will
not only help those in recovery but will lead us to true happiness and
usefulness to others.
Additional Notes:
1. In addition to SLAA Step materials, we will be using some non-
Conference approved materials, e.g. Drop the Rock book. To review the free pdf download go to Hazelden – Drop the Rock book pdf download . You will need this for the weekend.
2. To hear the inspiration for the concept of Drop the Rock and the book,
go to YouTube:Sandy Beach – Drop the Rock – AA Speaker.
Important information regarding attendance/participation:
• This is an SLAA retreat sponsored by NEI.
• Participants this weekend are recovering SLAA members.
• Non-participating guests are NOT allowed.
• This retreat is not suitable for anyone in acute withdrawal or initial stages
of recovery. This retreat serves those seeking ongoing motivation for sobriety maintenance through continued Step Work.
We look forward to seeing you soon!

Relationship with Self
Hosted On-line via ZOOM*
Saturday, July 19th
1:00 to 4:00PM (PST)
Workshop opens @ 12:45pm and starts promptly @ 1:00pm (PST)
Suggested Fee: $10 (no one will be turned away for lack of funds)
Venmo: @Karma-Kumar
Most of us enter recovery with a conflicted sense of self, or a carefully constructed false self, or no sense
of self at all. However, many SLAA members have found a whole new relationship with themselves by
working the Steps and participating in the Fellowship. This workshop will focus on the relationship we
have with ourselves and how to surrender the inner obstacles, or character defects, that can undermine
us or keep us addicted.

2025 December 12 Step Weekend Retreat
Step study is a key tool to recovery in the S.L.A.A. program:
At the retreat weekend we do a study of the 12 Steps–together. If you have
worked on the Steps in this type of format before, you already know its value. If you have not done any study of the Steps, intensive or otherwise, this is a great way to do it, especially the first time. Regardless of where we are in the Step study process, we can learn from sharing our experience, strength and hope with each other.
S.L.A.A. literature we will use for this weekend:
For this weekend we will use the new booklet The Twelve Steps of S.L.A.A. in Plain Language. If you need a copy for the weekend, you can order one in
advance, on the registration form attached.
Schedule: Group arrival starts Friday afternoon at 4:00PM. The weekend is concluded on Sunday in time for a 12:30pm lunch (which is provided). Departure is no later than 3:00 PM on Sunday.
(A final detailed schedule will be sent to you prior to the retreat.)
Price: $365.00
Discount of $20.00 for a total of $345.00 if paid by Deadline Date
YOUR COST deadline is Friday, November 28, 2025 -20.00 DISCOUNT If registration & payment is RECEIVE BY Friday, November 7, 2025
