Lifeline magazine contains real stories of recovery written by OA members, and is often referred to as “A Meeting on the Go,” a credit to its portability and versatility. OA members have cited many creative ways to use Lifeline, including placing an issue in the refrigerator, pantry, or other location that threatens abstinence; gifting an issue to a sponsees; offering an issue to an OA member in relapse during a Twelfth Step within call; packing an issue when traveling; and leaving an issue in a clinic waiting room to provide public information to the still-suffering compulsive eater.
