About this meeting
The Promises meeting is CEA-HOW's Monday evening online gathering, starting at 8pm UK time and taking its shape from the Promises, the passages in 12-step literature describing the changes members can expect as they work the programme. Discussion tends to circle around what those promises mean in practice, and how members are seeing, or waiting to see, them show up in their own recovery from compulsive eating. CEA-HOW follows the HOW method of Honesty, Openness and Willingness, built around a committed food plan and sponsorship, and asks only that members have a desire to stop eating compulsively. The meeting is open to anyone interested in the programme, including newcomers, and can be joined from anywhere since it runs entirely online. Joining details for that week are available on CEA-HOW's own meeting page.
Common questions
Who can join the Promises meeting?
It is an open meeting, so anyone interested in CEA-HOW or compulsive eating recovery can join, including people attending for the first time.
Where do I find the link to join?
CEA-HOW publishes joining details for each of its online meetings on its own meeting page, rather than here, so that is the place to check before Monday evening.
Is there a cost to attend?
No, the meeting is free, in keeping with the tradition of 12-step meetings being self-supporting and open to all who want to attend.
