A Woman's Journal addresses issues that many women struggle with, especially if they are addicted to alcohol or other drugs. Each women's path of healing is unique, but most of us find that it involves discovering our true selves, connecting in healthy relationships with others, understanding our sexuality, and gaining some spiritual connection. Recovery is like a spiral upward, away from a life that revolves around the objects of addiction (alcohol or other drugs, food, sex, etc), and outward into ever-widening circles of freedom, self-knowledge, and connection with others.
