The Complete Picture
2025-12-21 10:00 - 13:00 (America/New_York)
Dear ACA Fellow Traveler,
You are warmly invited to a transformative online workshop where we will explore The Complete Picture of how we learned to dissociate in response to dysfunction—and how we can gently and courageously reclaim our wholeness.
As winter turns and invites us inward, this gathering offers a compassionate space for reflection, renewal, and connection. We invite you to bring something that offers comfort or inspiration—a cozy scarf, a favorite mug, a candle, a photograph, or any cherished keepsake—to support your creative flow and inner ease.
In this workshop, we will:
Unpack the “Game of Dissociation” we unconsciously adopted in childhood
Explore how these patterns continue to shape our adult lives
Practice becoming our own loving parent, using powerful exercises from the Loving Parent Guidebook
Together, we will walk side by side as we reconnect with all parts of ourselves—compassionately, courageously, and with the strength of fellowship.
In Loving Service,
Fearless Souls – Adult Children in Recovery ACA Intergroup 754

The Gift
2025-12-24 10:00 - 12:00
The leaves have danced their final song,
their golden whispers now belong
to earth’s embrace, so soft, so deep,
where roots and dreams in stillness sleep.
The hush of winter fills the air,
a holy calm, a whispered prayer.
All that was heavy fades from sight,
as hearts turn inward toward the light.
A gift awaits — not bought, but born,
renewed with every Christmas morn.
It shines within, both old and new,
a sacred flame — calling for you.
The Gift

Will You Be Your Loving Parent?
2026-02-14 10:00 - 12:00
Will You Be Your Loving Parent?
A Valentine Workshop for Adult Children
This Valentine’s Day, we turn inward.
Many of us grew up longing for safety, care, and attunement that were inconsistent or missing. As adult children, we often look for that love outside ourselves—hoping someone else will finally give us what we did not receive.
In this workshop, we pause and ask a different question:
Will We Be Our Own Loving Parent?
Together, we will explore what it means to show up for ourselves with compassion, protection, and consistency. Using ACA principles, Loving Parent work, and gentle reflection, we will practice offering ourselves the care our inner children have always needed.
This workshop is an invitation to:
• Deepen our relationship with our Loving Parent and inner Children
• Strengthen emotional safety and self-trust
• Reclaim Valentine’s Day as a moment of self-commitment and care
You are warmly welcome exactly as you are.
No prior experience is needed—only a willingness to show up for yourself.

2026-02-22 13:00 - 14:30
In ACA we spend a lot of time talking about our “relationships” – relationships with our families, friends, coworkers, partners…but what about our non-human relationships?
The connections that we make with our pets are some of the most heartwarming, joyous, helpful, and heartbreaking relationships we will have in our lives.
We invite you to join us to spend a few minutes talking about and celebrating any of the animal friends you have had in your life. We’d love to hear a little bit about them and the love, joy, and comfort they’ve given you.
All are welcome – hope to see you there!
