Two years ago today I decided to give alcohol the boot! I was very much the “life and soul of the party” girl. And I won’t pretend I didn’t enjoy the buzz… I did!!
What I enjoyed a lot less however was the aftermath.
The days of feeling rough... The hangxiety.
Going alcohol-free hasn’t made me immune to missing that carefree, tipsy confidence now and then … but I definitely don’t miss feeling ill for days afterwards. That trade-off just wasn’t worth it for me anymore.
Since then, I’ve done parties, birthdays, Christmases, girls’ trips and holidays completely booze-free … things in the past, I genuinely thought I needed alcohol for to fully enjoy. Turns out… I didn’t!
Being a yoga teacher has definitely helped, not in a preachy way, but in a checking in with my body, staying present, choosing what actually feels good way. Less numbing, more noticing.
This isn’t about rules or labels … just a little celebration of what life can look like without alcohol. Still fun, still messy, still joyful… just with clearer mornings and calmer Sundays!!
If you’re sober curious, questioning, or quietly wondering … there’s a lot of life on the other side.
And it’s actually pretty great !
