Adult Children of Alcoholics (ACA) is a 12 Step organization that helps people deal with trauma, neglect, abandonment and abuse experienced in childhood that still affects as adults. This book is an official conference approved book of the fellowship of ACA. These daily readings, one for each day of the year, offer shared experiences from actual ACA members about the subject for the day that also include a passage from the Adult Children of Alcoholics / Dysfunctional Families Big Red Book. The pages are cited and can be used as part of a daily meditation exercise.

Relax and enjoy it as the three anonymous narrators alternate the readings in clear and peaceful voices. Or take it on the go and listen to it on your mobile device. Never miss a daily meditation again and kick start your day in a positive way!

Born from the spiritual wellspring of the Big Red Book (BRB), each meditation begins with a BRB quote, followed by heartfelt reflections in the collective “we” voice — reminding us that we are never alone. These are not just stories. They are our stories — shared experiences from adult children who have walked this path before us. Each entry closes with a compassionate affirmation, offering inspiration to carry us through the day. More than just a reading companion, this book is a beacon for anyone working with the BRB and the Twelve Steps of ACA. Together, these tools create a transformative journey toward emotional sobriety, self-love, and deep, lasting change. Who is an Adult Child? It’s anyone whose adult life is still shaped by a childhood filled with fear, self-doubt, or chaos. Whether the dysfunction stemmed from alcoholism, abuse, neglect, or other trauma, we often carry emotional scars that affect our relationships and our sense of self. Strengthening My Recovery offers the hope and guidance to break free from those patterns.
