Mobirise.comThe core practice from the book, distilled onto one page. Walk through what's actually happening (no story, no diagnosis), what you're feeling about it, whether there's something in your own attitude you can shift, and one small action that's genuinely yours to take. Built for the moment right after you've lost your serenity and need a structured way back to it.
An interactive weekly time map. You start from the true number, 168 hours, and account for sleep, work, family, and everything else, so what's actually left comes into view instead of staying buried in a vague sense of "I don't have time." Nothing is saved or sent anywhere. It's private, runs entirely in the browser, and takes a few minutes.
A 24-question self-check across four areas: self-respect, freedom from comparison and approval, authenticity in relationships, and emotional maturity. Not a test, and there's no passing score, just an honest snapshot of where you're standing today, with one small action to carry into the week ahead.
A four-box worksheet for sorting a tangled situation before deciding what to do: what's actually happening, what belongs to the other person, what's genuinely shared, and what's within your own control to change. Built for the moment when you're not sure whether something is even your business to fix.
It's worth mentioning where these now-popular ideas come from. Al-Anon has been quietly shaping how professionals talk about family systems, codependency, and recovery from someone else's disease for decades. Long before "boundaries" and "detachment with love" showed up in a counselor's office or a psychoeducation handout, they were being worked out in church basements and living rooms by people with no letters after their names, just experience, strength, and hope, passed hand to hand. A lot of what's considered good clinical practice today for families of addicts carries Al-Anon's fingerprints, whether the paperwork acknowledges it or not.
So these tools aren't a replacement for that tradition, and they aren't a rebranding of it. They take what Al-Anon already knows, tested across meetings and sponsors and decades, and lay it over practical exercises that make sense in the middle of an ordinary Tuesday. Something you can do in the car before you walk into the house. Something you can come back to after a phone call that wrecked your evening. The aim is a shift in attitude, a change in how you see the situation and how you see yourself inside it, until it feels less like something you're forcing and more like how you think now.
You won't find urgency here. This isn't a crisis intervention, and it isn't asking you to fix anyone tonight. Al-Anon's pace is gentler than that on purpose. Recovery for family members is about reclaiming serenity, not managing an emergency. Some of you are just starting to catch your breath. Some of you have been at this a long time and need a tune-up more than a rescue. These tools are built for both.
Take what's useful. Leave the rest. That's the whole tradition, and it's the same invitation these tools are extending to you.
