"Hope is like the sun, which, as we journey toward it, casts the shadow of our burden behind us."--Samuel Smiles. In 365 daily meditations, here is spiritual and psychological guidance through the interior struggles we face every day.

In each daily meditation the author uses a quote from a wide range of inspirational sources--from Kahil Gibran and Thomas Merton to Emily Dickinson and Erich From-m-to crystallize insights for the reader. Thoughts for a new day. On self-confidence: "Never bend you head, always hold it high. Look the world straight in the face."--Helen Keller. On peace of mind: "When we are unable to find tranquillity within ourselves it is useless to seek it elsewhere."--Duc de La Rochefoucauld.

For anyone who seeks a healthier, more satisfying life, here is a book of invaluable wisdom that will help you rediscover your life day by day.

Very helpful for recovery
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
As someone who's in recovery from an addiction, I find this little book indispensible for centering me, helping me to begin my day with awareness, and often highlighting a spiritual focus for the coming day. I use it to kick-off my morning prayers, but I could see it being exceptionally helpful for a middle-of-the-day boost as well. This book seems to contain the essential ingredients for making a true connection with God/higher power, and the author serves as a super-sponsor, someone who both talks and walks a very spiritual path indeed. This book has really helped me!
One of two I use daily.

This book offers some of the most spiritual thoughts I have found to start my day. While some of my meditation sources change, A New Day is a staple.
