Sunday morning….

Hot yoga class done, then up and at it, shopping in town with my daughter, no one else about, no hangovers here 👋🏻

How much time have you lost by being hungover?

I would hate to add up the hours the old me spent in bed feeling rubbish, going through the parts of the previous evening that I could remember…. 🤔

Not anymore! Make the most of your life, LIVE IT, ALL OF IT! ❤️

This was me so many times…. Missed out on many moments with my children as I was too focused on drinking wine 🥹

So happy that I changed my mindset and habits 💥

I love sober me ❤️
I would not go back to drinking now
I have learnt too much and grown too much as a person

I am stepping back from my sobriety page and groups for a while as I feel the need to preserve my energy

I am super passionate about sobriety, the health benefits, how it amplifies your life and radiates out of you like sunbeams. I will always be available for people who want to chat things through, and I understand how important connection is when tackling sobriety

However for now I am focusing on me

There have been times when I have been zapped of energy when people question my choices. When others make judgement on my life, both past and present when they have never lived my life, nor will they experience my present or my future

So for now I am going to do me ❤️🩷
Sober badass me 💥

Now that’s crazy!!!

I was drinking full bodied bottles of red wine when I decided to stop drinking 🍷

Plus I always used to say that “life was too short to drink cheap wine”

Had I continued…..

Well for one I don’t think I would be here to tell the tale 😳

However if by some miracle I could have continued drinking at that rate, look at how much it could have cost me!! 😳

Last week I took time out to climb Snowdon with my son. We stayed away for a couple of nights, explored old slate quarries and waterfalls that he had seen on tik tok, hiked up Snowdon, visited some coastal areas in North Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

We enjoyed each other’s company, chatted about everything and nothing, held space for each other, I cried, he ate pot noodles. We went out for dinner, reminisced about shared memories, watched a crap movie, ate snacks….

It was awesome and filled my heart with love ❤️

Not something I would have done when I was drinking. I would have been trying to work out how to fit in the wine, I wasn’t spontaneous back then, probably because the wine dulled my senses, including my sense of adventure 😢

Now I realise, spending these precious moments with my family, having some one on one time with my son…. It’s priceless and will give me so much more joy than any amount of wine could have done

11 years ago this is how I celebrated Easter Sunday ….. down the bottom of a wine bottle

This year I have been to yoga, enjoyed the sunshine being a tourist in York, done lots of work and house admin. Spent time with my family, been present for them and myself.

I know which version of myself I prefer ❤️🩷

Who’s coming??

Come along to our Sober Curious Brinch next Sunday from 10.30am at Drift on Clifford Street (the one next to the Grand Opera House)

We have a lovely community who enjoy some chat, coffee, brunch, cake and banter. We cover most topics, it’s not just about being sober, it’s more about CONNECTION with others. You might be sober, slightly curious, coming to help out a friend or family member….
Everyone is welcome 🤗

Send me a message if you have any questions, and hopefully see you for brunch!
