I love this book! As I've been going through a personal crisis, I have been reading various books and this one has hit home for me. Each chapter that I read seems to speak directly to me with concise but uplifting words. I recommend this book to anyone who is struggling with their faith and is looking for support.

The author gives real life examples for when the particular "Value" is applicable. Then she gives us Application, Challenges we may face, personal Inventory Focus, Action to take, Gratitude Focus for the value and finishes with a Prayer. These don't need to be done one week at a time. Use any that may apply at any time. In fact, I could hardly stop reading and learning. I not only get great personal insight and results from these meditations I also lead a meditation group weekly and occasionally bring these ideas to the floor with very good results for the members as well. Thank you Melody.

I've been a fan of Melody Beattie's books for many years. Her uncomplicated, warm voice has often been a port in my stormy recovery from CoDa, ACA and substance abuse issues. This journal has been helpful as a weekly/daily study tool, or sometimes I just play roulette with it, randomly opening to a page to receive a message that I need that in that moment. In any event, I always receive a healing meditation.

This is a wonderful book to stick to every morning, it helps put a good viewpoint on and week.

This is another hit by author Melody Beattie. I am a huge fan of her work. This is an interesting book because each week you deal with a different topic.

Most days Meditations hits me right where I am. It targets my inherent weaknesses and causes me to self-evaluate and change course (at least for that day--because the next day I seem to need the cousin of the previous article).
These reflections are short, which is good, and helpful whether or not you are a Christian (I am). I have bought several others as gifts.

I love this daily meditation book by Melody Beattie (highly recommend all of her work) because there is a different theme for each week. It helps me to focus all week on a topic I need to put into action. I also read her daily messages in her "Language of Letting Go" book. They are a nice complement to each other.

I read this book when going through divorce, going through grieving, and with losing a relationship.It is a wonderful warm and practical guide to getting clear and on track. Lifts you spirits too. I was living with an alcoholic for years so needed to relearn trusting my own values, not someone else's. She helps with that process.

I initially bought this book for my own personal use. However, I thought it was so well-done that I purchased more and gave them out as gifts to women attending a psychotherapy group that I facilitate. Melody Beattie continues to inspire, educate, validate, and motivate those dealing with codependency issues who seek to deepen their recovery work and become the woman (or man) that they are meant to be. Kudos to you, Melody!

Love anything by Melodie Beatty. Downloaded this onto my Kindle. Easy to read and understand, full of thoughts to help on the road to living life instead of just existing. Thanks.
