Product Description
Product Description
Millions of people around the world spend a few moments each day in quiet reflection with a Karen Casey meditation book. The author's signature work, Each Day a New Beginning, was the first daily meditation book for recovering alcoholic women. When published in 1982, the book had no competition, yet many wondered whether a market existed for such a work. Twenty-five years and more than three million copies later, what became known as the little green book continues to sustain old and new readers alike. This limited edition features a new introduction by Casey, the original text, and original cover art. While many daily meditation books have been modeled after Each Day a New Beginning, no author can match Casey's reassuring guidance and gentle wisdom for sustaining lifelong recovery.
About the Author
Karen Casey is the author of numerous best-selling books on recovery, including Each Day A New Beginning, Fearless Relationships, A Woman's Spirit, A Life of My Own, and Daily Meditations for Practicing the Course. She lives in Minnesota and Florida and frequently lectures at workshops.

Each Day a New Beginning,
By Nana (White Rock, British Columbia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Each Day a New Beginning: Daily Meditations for Women (Paperback)
What a wonderful little book this is! A friend gave me a copy back in 1988 when she and I were both trying desperately to patch up marriages that had been damaged by our respective husband's abuse of alcohol. I will forever be grateful to her for this gift. The book is not just for women struggling with addictions...it is for all of us who think there is no light at the end of the tunnel.In the beginning, I read a page each night. After awhile I moved on with my life and felt no need to read it. As I have proceeded with my life I have referred to this book each time life seemed bleak, and every single time I have turned to that day's message...it has been EXACTLY the message I needed to hear to make me feel better. I encourage you to purchase this book for yourself and the women who mean a lot to you...and to let its messages become part of your lives. You WILL be better for it. Some days you will find that the messages are obviously directed at women who are recovering from addictions...it doesn't matter...you will still find a sentence in that message that will be worth a pause in your day.

A cornerstone for a woman's recovery,
By
This review is from: Each Day a New Beginning: Daily Meditations for Women (Paperback)
This quiet meditation book, has served countless recovering women since innitial printing in 1982. The author, who recieved her Ph.D from the University of Minnesota, was inspired to write the text while working for the Hazelden Treatment Center. She recognized that a woman's recovery can be based on other factors than those that apply to men; and wrote a text for a womens audience. In the book, there is an essay on recovery for each day of the year. These essays are preceded with an appropriate quotation and followed with a suggestion for meditation. I have used this book successfully with many of my clients and highly reccomend it for professional libraries and for the general public.

This review is from: Each Day A New Beginning: Daily Meditations for Women-25th Anniversary Limited Special Edition (Paperback)
No matter who one is - a recovering person or one who is just journeying in life, this book is excellent to read daily or to have it handy to pick up and read a reflection occasionally. It is uplifting.
