Simply the best daily meditation book for 12-step Jews,
By
This review is from: Living Each Day (ArtScroll (Mesorah)) (Hardcover)
Dr. Rabbi Twerski has the distinction of being the country's only Chasidic psyhicatrist. He has been intimately involved with recovering alcoholics and he knows them well. And he knows his AA Big Book well. His knowledge of Torah, Talmud and mystical literature are astonishing. His daily meditations are focused on our relationship with God and you don't have to be an alcoholic to appreciate just how fine and inspirational this book is. In the back of the book, the author includes commentary on the parshas, most of which is thought provoking. A fine book, then, for Jewish alcoholics and for all Jews. It's the only daily meditation book you'll ever need.

Living Each Day- A masterpiece,
This review is from: Living Each Day (ArtScroll (Mesorah)) (Hardcover)
Rabbi Twerski writes a magnificent book. Taking a passage from Hebrew texts, he applies it to modern, everyday life. The book is not preachy or moralistic. It deals with what plagues all of us: resentment, loss, grief, joy, envy and helps us come to grips with the fact that human beings cannot ever be perfect and that we should embrace our imperfections and use them as springboards for spiritual growth.
