About the Author
Sandra Swenson is the mother of two sons—one of whom struggles with addiction. A trusted voice for the loved ones of addicts, she first documented her experiences with her son’s addiction in the critically-acclaimed book The Joey Song. After hearing from countless mothers who have been helped by her meditation book, Tending Dandelions, Sandy released even more honest meditations in her mobile app, Readings for Moms of Addicts, which is now available for both Apple and Android devices. An advocate for acceptance, education, healing, and recovery, Sandy can frequently be found sharing her story.
Sandra Swenson has delicately and intentionally provided a
wonderful new resource for an often-overlooked population impacted
by addiction—mothers. Addiction ravages families and is one of the
most complicated illnesses to navigate for a parent. This set of
meditations is poised to support those affected by a loved one’s
addiction in powerful and meaningful ways.
*Greg Williams, co-founder of Facing Addiction*
With wisdom and insights born from personal heartache, experience,
and a lot of love, this treasure is a goldmine of hope, coping
tips, and wit like no other. Mothers and family members of an
addict will discover they are NOT alone and, no matter the choices
their loved one makes, there is a way to continue to live and love
deeply. . . from afar.
Sandra writes, “In letting go of you, I’m letting you know that I
believe in you. Like a hug, I let go believing that
you will find your way back.”
*Judy Herzanek, coauthor of Why Don’t They Just Quit? Hope for
Families Struggling with Addiction*
