Description

Written by codependency expert Melody Beattie, the Language of Letting Go provides daily guidance and encouragement for those who struggle with codependency. The app contains all 366 readings from the best-selling book, one for each day of the year, helping you on your journey of self-care and recovery to a path of freedom and a lifetime of healing, hope, and happiness. Each daily reading focuses on a specific topic and ends with a related prayer or affirmation. Topics include: setting healthy boundaries, recognizing feelings, loving yourself, trusting your Higher Power, finding peace, and letting go of shame, guilt, sadness, anger, and worry. Also included are handy reference lists of the Twelve Steps of AA, the Twelve Traditions of AA, and the Twelve Steps of Al-Anon. When the app is opened each day, it will automatically show you that day’s reading. Choose a time for a daily notification reminding you to read, reflect, and meditate on that day’s reading and on your recovery. Open the app anytime you need to refocus. Codependency—the concept of losing oneself in the name of helping another—has rung true for millions around the globe, and can manifest for many reasons: a spouse, child, parent, or loved one addicted to alcohol or other drugs; a mentally or physically ill loved one; sexual addiction; abuse; or neglect. By integrating her own life experiences and fundamental recovery reflections, Melody Beattie helps readers take responsibility for their own pain and self-care as she encourages them to remember that each day is an opportunity for growth and renewal. Features: PRESS the “Today” button to access today’s reading. SWIPE forward or back to easily access more daily readings. SHARE the daily reading with friends by e-mail or text. BOOKMARK your favorite readings (press the star in the upper right-hand corner) and easily return to them (press the star in the bottom toolbar). SEARCH all 366 daily readings. RECEIVE a notification every day to remind you to read the daily meditation. JUMP to a specific reading using the calendar button. SET your font size using your device settings. CHOOSE between light or dark mode.

    I’ve been reading this book in paper form for years now. I’m so grateful that they’re now exists a digital copy so I can have it with me always. No matter what day it is, the insights are on point. Thank you Melody.

    It’s nice to have the book on my phone as a quick referral but that’s all it is. There’s the basic ability to bookmark a passage or to share it with a friend but nothing else. A place for a few notes wound be good. Not worth $7. Also, could someone please just rewrite this with gender neutral pronouns (or no pronouns, “gods will” rather than “His will”) for higher power/god. Truly, it’s 2023 & everyone deserves language that doesn’t trip them up & that they don’t have to translate in their heads in order to make it resonate. Recovery is challenging enough.
  • Just what I needed

    Its a meeting in my phone and seems to say exactly what I need each time I read it. I discovered scrolling at random through the entries by date when the daily reading isn’t quite what I need and love my new trick. On rough days I read it more than once. A truly wonderful little phone friend.
  • Love this book!

    This book gave me permission to take care of myself and to come out of a lot of dumb thinking. Thank you, God and Melody Beattie!

    Love having both the book and the app. I read the book every day and if I happen to forget the app notifies me! It’s also a great resource when traveling, or anywhere during my day to be able to have such wisdom at my fingertips.
  • Wish there was a journal

    I like this app and use it daily. However, it would get 5 stars and be so helpful if there was a journal or place to write a comment about the daily reflection!! That helps me to apply the daily reflection to my life.
  • Wonderful Resource and Great Wisdom! Highlighting?

    By KemperAsheville
    I use this app every day and it is a source of inspiration and grounding. The meditations seem always to be what I need and the prayers are a wonderful jumping-off point. A request: would you consider adding the ability to highlight (and unhighlight, of course) sections that particularly speak to us? Especially when I select a meditation as a favorite, I find it helpful to see what I thought was important when I read it. Also, highlighting is a way to increase my concentration and focus on the meditation or prayer. Thanks for your consideration. Thank you for this app.
  • My run-to devotional since 2000

    This is the book, that I find myself coming back to again and again and again. It is also the first book I give to the dearest of friends.
  • Gender Neutral

    I love this book and my readings everyday. However, I think it’s time to RE-write and make it gender neutral. It’s that TIME. It can reach so many more people if we STOP assuming that GOD is a HIM….
