The Language of Letting Go

* REVISED AND UPDATED, WITH A NEW PREFACE AND NEW MEDITATIONS *

This gentle and profound collection of 365 meditations reminds us that letting go is a daily practice that sets everything free, from the author of Codependent No More.

This cherished work by Melody Beattie was written for those on a journey of recovery and healing, a companion to her classic, Codependent No More. “It was the daily journey that I wanted to write about,” Beattie notes in the preface to this new edition. “Of the many healing behaviors I’ve learned to practice, letting go—in all its shapes and forms—is the most influential, profound, and life altering.”

Drawing on her own life experiences and struggles with codependency, Beattie offers a thought to guide us through each day of the year and to encourage us to take small, meaningful steps toward renewal, courage, and resilience. Every day affords an opportunity for growth, she reminds us, and with this wise and compassionate book, she lights the way.
