Sovereign Sobriety - Addiction Recovery and Wellness

Alcohol and Controlled Drinking  

One sip of alcohol after a long period of not drinking could take you down the rabbit hole until you can't go down any further.  One sip turned into years of progressive alcoholism for me on two separate occasions.  

Self-discipline is key You can't trust what a normal drinker says because they have no idea what it's like to be an alcoholic and to have that obsession to drink and keep drinking.  You can tell yourself I can control my drinking, but how long does that actually last if you are unhealed within.  It's so easy to get the F it's when you haven't done the internal work to heal the fake stories going on inside of your head.

Prayer For Your Exes

This is an Affirmative Prayer or also known as a Spiritual Mind Treatment.

The actual prayer starts at 8 minutes 30 seconds, if you would like to skip straight to the prayer portion of the video.

I recommend you sit comfortably in a quiet space with your eyes closed and connect fully in the moment with the prayer.

Remember: You are love, you are light, and everything is happening for our greatest and highest good at all times.

We are all spiritual beings in these bodies just doing the best we can with what we've got. Forgive easily and have compassion and let go with love.

Ultimately, we all just want to be loved, so let's be that love ourselves first and foremost. We attract the love vibration in which we are. Law of Attraction. You attract what you are, so be LOVE. This love I speak of is Self-Love. Work on having that self-love within yourself first.

There is no blame only growth and learning taking place in every situation even when it hurts or seems wrong or unfair.

Be patient and have faith and trust God. God's got you, sweet soul.

Why I Self Medicated with Alcohol 

1. Stress 

2. Anxiety 

3. Depression 

4. Anger  

While in active addiction,  I was never in a good place mentally.  I always had to have a drink to get by and do most anything. It got really bad. The addiction was so strong. I tried to quit multiple times. 

What was the void I was missing? ME! I was missing self-worth and self-love.

Stop Giving Your Energy to the Energy Vampires

I just heard Gary Vaynerchuck talking about why we give more energy to the people who are shitting on us instead of the people who are cheering us on. 

Why would we give ourselves to the darkness over the light?

Why would we care if one person thinks we suck out of all the others that don't?

Why would we give our energy to someone who is trying to F us up? They are projecting their BS onto us

Is Getting Sober Hard to Do?  

This is all coming from my own perspective and journey.   

If you quit drinking for the right reason, for YOU, then it’s not as hard as you think.  If you are ready to surrender the life you once knew and got comfortable with, then it’s easier then you think.   

Honestly, have you ever done something that you were really proud of that filled your soul without doing some hard work to get there?  Oh maybe 🤔 not because if you are like I used to be, I had no passions or ambitions to fill my soul. I was a full-time drunk.   

It’s all in perception. Do you want it to be easier not harder? Than set your mind into believing you’re already sober, you have already got 30 days, 90 days, one year in your pocket of sobriety.   

Believe it and you can achieve it. 

Let’s go! You don’t get drink, if you don’t pick up a drink.   

90 meetings in 90 days worked for me, but I was also doing a bunch of things to get to where I am today.

Why I Love Cold Water, but I Hate the Cold  

1. Get out of my head 

2. Feel alive 

3. More relaxed and calm 

4. Sleep better 

5. In the moment more than ever   

👆🏻Those are my main reasons.   

Cold exposure speeds up metabolism, reduces inflammation, swelling, and sore muscles. It’s linked to improved sleep, more focus and an improved immune response.   Reset, reboot and feel alive again!!!!
