While abstention from alcohol and drugs is essential to a recovering alcoholic's personal growth and serenity, many still have much to learn in sobriety. Author Mel B.'s reflective, insightful explorations of the deeper issues of living in recovery address the daily concerns of those new to life without alcohol, as well as those who have achieved long-term sobriety. Modeled after the classic meditation book "Twenty-Four Hours a Day", this core-recovery book is filled with solid, practical, spiritual advice and time-honoured Twelve Step program philosphy. In Mel B's words, "We're claiming too much if we say that any meditation book will give us the happiness and stability we seek. But the right thoughts, presented in daily messages, can give us the frame of mind we need to continue in the program. We can use our books to accumulate new ideas for sober and clean living. We can use them to reinforce ideas discussed at meetings and in other literature. "Walk in Dry Places" offers those ideas and reinforcements to both newcomers and those with long-term sobriety alike.
