Keep It Simple (Hazelden Meditation Series)

Summary: Good Daily Reader
Review: I purchased this reader for someone just starting out with a 12 step program. I couldn't get this person to attend daily nor weekly meetings BUT, I could get them to read this daily reader. After just a few weeks of committing to this reader, they have now found the courage to start attending meetings. I can speak rather highly of most if not all of the Hazelden publications!

Another great book is "The Language Of Letting Go" by Melody Beattie. This too is a wonderful daily reader that, can help with those times when life just seems too heavy. I've lived under the tree of therapy professionals now for 23 years so, trust me when I tell you, you can't go wrong with either of these books.

Review: This book covers almost every topic you could imagine. It offers solutions not only for recovery but for a way of living one's daily life to the fullest. This book is wonderful to use in recovery meetings and offers a great number of group participation! This book is also an asset to read on a daily basis in order to start one's day! I highly recommend it!

Summary: As The Title Says - Simple
Review: This book is designed for those in the beginning or renewal stages of recovery. I was in the renewal stage but found the quotes a little simple. They are all quite short which may be good for beginniners, or people who like such kinds of quotes.

Each month represents one step in the 12 steps of recovery, and the quotes for each month do include parts of the steps and prayers, along with AA slogans. Each day has a quote, followed by a writing as per usual. It has a nice touch of adding not only a prayer for the day but also an action for the day too.
