About this ebook

“Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.” Recovering addicts work the 12 steps because their lives depend on it. Accessing a Higher Power and acting upon the Higher Power’s will is a means for lasting recovery and survival. The 12-Step Recovery Toolkit offers a simple yet effective way to tap into that Higher Power and receive guidance on how to incorporate the twelve steps, tools, and slogans into daily life. Whether you have a problem or just need a little extra guidance, the cards in The 12-Step Recovery Toolkit allows the recovering addict to ask questions of their Higher Power and pull one or more cards for inspiration and advice. This is a deck that every recovering addict should have in his or her arsenal of 12-step tools.   A recovering addict herself, Stacey J. felt compelled to create the toolkit to help others work the steps and make their way through the program. The 12-Step Recovery Kit is a tool for recovering addicts created by a recovering addict.

About the author

Stacey J. is a children’s TV producer, a graduate student in Jungian therapy, and a recovering addict. One day, an idea came to her and would not leave her alone. It combined the Jungian principle of synchronicity which makes the selection of ‘random’ Tarot cards meaningful with the principles of 12-step recovery that have saved her life. The result is a new Step II recovery tool which she hopes will be helpful to 12-steppers anywhere who seek to do the will of their Higher Power.
