The Book of Spiritual Meditations that Pioneered the Women’s Recovery Movement 

"Karen Casey tells truth and tells it well."—Marianne Williamson

#1 New Release in Spiritual Meditations

First published in 1982, Karen Casey’s signature and genre-defining work, Each Day a New Beginning, broke ground as the first daily meditation book for women in alcoholism recovery. Forty years later, over four million copies have been sold and people around the globe continue to turn to this renowned classic for morning motivation, afternoon escape, and night-time reflection.

Engage with effective healing meditation practices. Karen Casey offers invaluable wisdom with every page, encouraging women in recovery to learn the art of compassion, acceptance, creativity and more. Spiritual meditation exercises are peppered throughout the book, allowing you to heal with each coming day. 

Recognize the importance of community in recovery. Recovery is not linear and absolute, but meandering and ambiguous. From personal experience, Karen Casey knows this to be true. In Each Day A New Beginning, inhabit a collective space for women in recovery for spiritual meditation, reflection, learning, and connection. 

Gain wisdom from exceptional female role models. Each day, enjoy an inspirational quote from extraordinary women, ranging from Anne Morrow Lindbergh to Dorothy Bryant to Evelyn Mandel. Meditation practices follow each quote, allowing you to supplement your healing experience with mindfulness exercises. 

Each Day a New Beginning is the perfect gift for women during any stage of their recovery journey. It is designed to help you: 

  • Gain deeper insight into the recovery process
  • Celebrate your personal strength and dedication towards recovery 
  • Practice mindfulness through daily meditation exercises 

If spiritual meditation and daily affirmation books like Meditations on Self-Love, Badass Affirmations, or Practicing Mindfulness inspired you, you’ll love Each Day a New Beginning.

Each Day a New Beginning was first published in the early 1980s, the same period when I began giving lectures on A Course in Miracles. Those were days when spiritual seeking outside the confines of institutional religion was somewhat unique, even exotic. What Karen found in Alcoholics Anonymous, and I found in the Course, was a path to God that wasn’t waylaid by religious dogma....What grew from Karen’s hunger to know God was a compilation of thoughts and reflections that became this book, a publishing wonder that has touched the lives of millions. In a world of falsehood it’s a friendly reminder of what’s deeply true. You can’t read it in the morning and not be prepared for a better day."
Marianne Williamson, NYT bestselling author of A Return to Love

"Casey’s voice is thoughtful and accessible. Readers with a belief in the power of God will be most amenable to her recommendations for a simpler, more rewarding life."
Publishers Weekly

"Each Day a New Beginning is a super book! I have read it cover to cover! A woman with an alcohol or drug problem has a special problem. I think [Karen's] book will be most helpful in coping with the special needs of women in recovery."
Betty Ford, former First Lady and founder of The Betty Ford Center

"This book is small, is easy to digest, and would likely be taken from the display shelf by someone needing a psychological boost."
Deborah Bigelow, Library Journal

“These simple steps can lead to a peaceful and meaningful life. Casey’s self-help book is a winner!" —Frederick Brussat, spiritualityandpractice.com

“This book is a must-read for anyone who cares about the quality of their thoughts and how being aware of them can bring positive change."
Mary Porter, Science of Mind
