Nashville, TN (PRWEB) September 22, 2006

Sunlight of the Spirit Music (SunlightOfTheSpiritMusic.com), the only music store on the planet specializing in CDs from artists in recovery — all kinds of recovery and all kinds of music — hopes to put a positive face on recovery.

Founded in January 2006, by Nashville songwriter, author and podcast creator Gracie Hollombe Vandiver, Sunlight of the Spirit Music offers CDs in all styles of music created by artists in recovery. “So many recognizable and well-respected recording artists, who were once known for their excesses, are now creating great music without the use of drugs or alcohol,” claims Vandiver. “They have become positive role models.”

The niche music store also features the largest selection of 12-Step and “recovery music” available under one roof. “Recovery Music is a category of music encompassing all genres, in which the lyrics often contain a spiritual message or share experience, strength and hope from alcoholism and other addictions,” says Vandiver. Many recovering alcoholics, addicts and their family members are discovering the value of listening to recovery music as a tool for staying spiritually balanced, as evidenced by a steady growth in the store’s recovery music CD sales.

Sunlight of the Spirit Music is honoring National Recovery Month by lowering prices on every CD in its online store for the entire month of September. The storewide sale coincides with National Alcohol and Drug Addiction Recovery Month, a nationwide celebration of those in recovery from substance use disorders, sponsored by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (recoverymonth.gov).
