About Touchstones (Bookmobile)

Designed specifically for men, Touchstones explores masculinity through informative, inspirational meditations and offers profound advice for life’s many changes. While the daily readings help with recovery, they also help men create a better, more balanced life.

Continued awareness and involvement with the ideas in this app provide ongoing personal growth. Although this growth is entirely our own, its benefits are shared and spread to every relationship--friends and family alike. Here, every struggle meets an insight. And in this app, the cycle of addiction can meet its end.
In addition to a meditation for each day of the year, Touchstones includes lists of the Twelve Steps and the Twelve Traditions. Whether you participate in Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous, or another self-help program, Touchstones can serve as a reliable companion on any recovering man’s journey.

My favorite daily reader

Dreading this book for years now. Never disappoints. It’s my favorite daily reader! The app is straight forward, I wish it had a little more functions, like creating your own multiple subfolders and saving certain days in them vs to just having one “favorite” bookmark option. Content 5 stars

FiedelfatzVersion: 3.1.11
I love the daily readings, more features would be appreciated

I love checking out the readings daily. It definitely helps me keep mindful about how I frame my life in my mind. It’s easy to fall off the wagon of reading it daily. I would love it if it was possible to push a button and have it read out loud to me either by an author, another reader, or minimally Siri, Although she does not seem to understand what she’s reading. Sometimes it’s nice just to hear it and reflect on it. Also I find when I hear other people reading, it helps me view things in a new light.

I don't start my day without Touchstones

It took me a while to start "book ending" as part of my 12-Step Recovery. I read Touchstones and three other Hazelden books every day! If my day isn't going great, I read them again! They help to shift my thinking about life and people.

Awesome App for Recovery

I start every morning reading the daily reflection in this App. It helps ground me for the day and is helping me stay sober. I highly recommend adding this to your daily routine. Prayer, meditation, gratitude list, pages 86-88 and these passages. Then jump into a morning meeting! God bless.

This app is very important to my sobriety. Every morning when I wake up it is the first thing that I pick up. It is a pivotal part of my morning routine and it always seems to fit in the scheme of my day. Thanks for a great tool.

Hazelden Touchstones

I obtained my first copy of this book in 1986. At that time Hazelden offered a very well produced audio tape of selections read from the text. I am not certain whether the tape is still in publication but I highly recommend it. This may be the best written book in the meditations series and is the first such book that is not pop psychology nor positive thinking/secrets of success promises. (All of the Hazelden Meditation Series books have earned this distinction.) I have always wondered who this talented and thoughtful writer was, however, since it is written for recovering addicts I assume that the author maintains anonymity according to the tradition of the Twelve Step programs. I heartily recommend this book for all who desire to grow emotionally and spiritually. It is also an excellent companion to carry when traversing rocky periods in one's life.

A BETTER PERSON

This book has helped me to become a better person on a daily basis. All you have to do is listen to its wise words from so many. I'm a captain on an offshore supply vessel and read a verse to my crew daily in hopes that it will make us all become better people and remind us not only where we've come from but more importantly, where we are going in life... Pay it forward and help someone else to see the potential that we all have as human beings in general for a better world and place to live amongst one another.

Captain DaddyVersion: 2.0
Amazing app

This app has done more for me than the developer could ever know. I always have loved the readings out of the actual book but having this app on hand gives the ability to take time out at any point of the day to take myself out of my own head. It truly saves me one day at a time. Many thanks :)

Great daily reflections book

I was delighted to find this app. I love the book and reading it everyday is a great way to go through each day. As previously mentioned, it would be great to see features that allow the reader to highlight, make bookmarks and add notes. Hopefully an update with these features.

Speaks to my heart

A meditation that I can identify with. Much better than most and even better than some of the "conference approved" books. And I always have it with me. I can start my day over whenever and where ever I want.

Almost Perfect

Touchstones has been my lifeline for 20 years. I have been waiting for it to come out in this format, very much appreciated and grateful. It would be wonderful if you could add the feature to highlight text and type in notes. Touchstones has taught me it is not a perfect world.

I have used this book daily for the last 24 years and delight in the fact that each day I get to get more insight and support. The Iphone edition is so easy to use and lets not have to carry the book. Thanks!

This is a great app!

This is the first review I've written for any app. This is a great book, and the ability to have this with me on my iPhone and iPad is just plain great. I love that I can easily email family/friends with some of the great daily readings.

JIMinNHVersion: 2.0
Great stuff!

This is a wonderful publication! It's amazing to me how much good it does to start my day off with a quick, positive message. It would be a nice additional feature if I could search the book for a certain topic.

This is a wonderful source of calming, thoughtful and relevant meditations. I find that nearly every entry resonates with me. It has been "just what I needed to hear" more often than not. I highly recommend it to anyone, including those not "in recovery."

MonkeyManT.Version: 2.0
So great!

So much easier to read an iPhone app during workday than a small book. The book itself is a classic! Have gifted it to several friends. They love it too. Perfect pricing too.

Great for the on-the-go person

I love having this on my phone. I've always forgot my hardcopy and this has enabled to to keep it with me all to time so I can read and re-read the days meditation as needed.

Great stuff. I too would like a little more flexibility in the interaction with the software. Particularly on mobile devices. Ability to send a page to a sponcee on the road etc.

Gives me an intention for the day

Puts me in a good frame of mind in the morning. It could use some technical updating though, like notifications. Sometimes I get out of my routine and forget to read. A little red 1 on the icon would be a great reminder!

Thank you

I am a recovering alcoholic as well as food addict. And this is of course coincidence, but it seems on my weakest days this app sends me the exact Reading and meditation at just the right time that I require. Thank you.

Too few nicknames leftVersion: 3.1.1
Just right!

This devotional is good for men in general. The focus is on sex addiction recovery, and it is EXCELLENT for that use, but the content is good for all men. Just like the 12 steps are just a good way for anyone to live by, this devotional book can easily be used more broadly.

Talk4MenVersion: 2.0
Excellent Tool!

Excellent App! Only complaint is you can't highlight passages for review later. Maybe in a future update? Otherwise it's great to not have to lug another book around.

Not a scientific poll, but it seems most men in AA use Touchstones as a part of their daily spiritual meditations. This app is easy to use and worth the typical Hazelden price.
