This Audio Blog is about how I took two years to heal my addiction to alcohol. I didn’t just quit it one night and be done with it. I had to take time to heal why I kept wanting to numb out. Trying to quit in one night is great! That is how we start to heal our addiction to alcohol. But if you use again you don’t want to go into guilt and shame. Listen here for this important message for your sobriety journey!

Reasons you may keep going back to alcohol
Reasons you may keep going back to alcohol

Once you begin to quit drinking alcohol, things can start coming up for you.

Unexpressed emotions, buried trauma, responsibilities, YOUR HIGHER SELF, and maybe health issues. This is you seeing all the things you were avoiding when you got drunk. So even though these can be amazing things for you to see and be aware of, it can also make you want to run back to old coping mechanisms, like drinking alcohol.

I want to really expand on this side of sobriety, that there are layers to getting sober and for someone using alcohol to cope with, you might find that you want alcohol in certain situations you didn’t expect.

 Or that just because you quit drinking alcohol, you are magically healed from wanting that substance again.

It is a bit more complicated than that. Let me explain.

Removing Alcohol helped Protect my Sexual Energy

Okay, this is a very vulnerable and intimate blog post for me. Personally, the side of drinking alcohol I wanted to forgot all about! I know so many women can relate because being drunk allows us to do whatever the f*ck we want, so to speak. Basically, we lose our ability to critical thinking, which is the reason I drank a most of the time. That also was why I had one night stands and walks of shame more than I would like to admit. I want to highlight the need and importance of, women especially, protecting their sexual energy by staying sober.

Yes, alcohol and sex go hand in hand, and not in a good way! Not that sex is a bad thing, but the kind of sex that goes with alcohol is harmful. How many people are having sober sex? Not a lot! Our sexual energy is the one of the most powerful energies in the Universe, mishandling that force can bring on a lot of harm, sadness, lack of creativity, and sadness for women. We are the keepers to that force, we have to have boundaries and protect it all costs!
