Infos

Modern Twelve Step Recovery, and spirituality in general, is vastly different from what was encountered at the time AA was emerging from its evangelical Christian roots. Members in the current era often do not believe in God or are agnostic. Spirituality comes in shapes and sizes unimaginable in the America of the 1930s. You'll find the reflections in this book to be psychological rather than religious.

bob k. is an active Southern Ontario AA member, sober since 1991.

Daily Reflections for Modern Twelve Step Recovery draws from diverse sources. We travel back many centuries to glean wisdom from Daoists, Buddhists, Stoics and Greek philosophers. From the very recent era of self-publishing, you'll find excerpts from books that tailor 12-Step recovery to specific demographics - women, secularists, non-egomaniacs and others. In between the ancient insights and the new, we find wise words from philosophers, presidents, activists, inventors, sports icons and entertainers. We look at the science of addiction and provide some snippets of recovery history. The volume is not your father's Oldsmobile. It's a modern and practical guide to having a better life in recovery and definitely is secularist-friendly.
