Recovery Meditation on the Seven Sorrows of Mary
The USA headquarters of the Calix Society at http://calixsociety.org/ offers a 25 minute free download of a recovery meditation at http://calixde.org/front/images/Calix/Media/Audio/SorrowfulDolorsRecoveryMeditations.mp3 with the following comment:
"The Blessed Virgin Mary grants seven graces to the souls who honor her daily by saying seven Hail Mary's and meditating on her tears and dolors (sorrows). The devotion was passed on by St. Bridget of Sweden. In this recovery meditation, Our Lady shows us the way of humility and true compassion for the alcoholic and addict."
Note: As Matt Talbot once commented to a sister, "Where would I be, only for God and His Blessed Mother. No one knows what a good mother She has been to me."
