A weekly and daily source of inspiration and hope.

Each of this book's 52 meditations includes a short reflection, a related story "from the rooms" of AA, and seven prayers—one for every day of the week. Grounded in reliance on the Creator, the wisdom of Elders, and the support of the sober community, this unique collection is intended to provide daily strength and hope for the recovery journey and counteract the harsh realities of poverty, violence, and broken relationships that are too often fueled by alcohol and other drug use.

Readers will recognize the value of spiritual laws like Honesty, Sharing, Kindness, and Strength as well as the power of traditional rituals such as offering tobacco with prayers. Whatever our culture, we can apply this book's wisdom to our recovery and life.

Speaking clearly and with great care about the challenges and rewards of living sober, this book blends Ojibwe and Twelve Step spiritual principles and practices. Whatever our culture, we can apply the traditional virtues of Honesty, Sharing, Kindness, and Strength to our lives. By relying on the Creator, Elders' wisdom, and sober community support, we find hope and a vision of how to live a good life. Each week offers a meditation, seven daily prayers, and real stories “from the rooms” of Alcoholics Anonymous.
