Why Sobriety Isn’t Just About Quitting Drinking

When we talk about sobriety, the first thing that probably comes to mind is stopping drinking. But here’s a little secret: sobriety is about so much more than just putting down the wine glass. It's about rediscovering yourself, reconnecting with your body, and living with intention.

It’s about first and foremost creating a new relationship to yourself and how you spend your time. A great place to start is to ask yourself when you feel the desire to drink and you are getting ready to pour something, do I actually want this drink right now? Why?

There is no right answer. Sometimes we get into such a habit of drinking we skip the part that it’s not a drink we want, but we aren’t quite sure what to do with our selves. If you ask WHY? You will find our more of your deeper needs you are trying to meet with alcohol.

Think about it this way: What if quitting drinking wasn’t about giving up something, but about gaining so much more? More joy, more clarity, and more freedom to be exactly who you are without any filters.
