Prayer itself can have various effects \u2013 it helps us to focus and formulate our thoughts, it can give reassurance and calm to troubled minds and of course it can produce results. The simple act of saying the Serenity Prayer can be a soothing influence. The prayer offers us acceptance, courage and wisdom as a solution to life\u2019s problems. It\u2019s not a new idea but it can work for anyone, addicted or not.
