This is the place to talk about using alcohol mindfully, less, or not at all. 😎

I've got a long weekend getaway this week so I'll be drinking. I've been loving the sober sleep though. And not sweating at night after drinks. I'll be taking another week-ish off for sure after this.

Hi! I hope to be checking in here frequently again.
After a busy summer that included a lot of alcohol, I decided to take a 3-month hiatus. I’m only on day 18, but loving how I feel so far. I’m sure cravings will hit and it’ll be difficult at times, but I’m optimistic so far!

I am in the final month of my 100 day streak. 22 days to go! Spending a lot of time thinking about how to reintroduce alcohol mindfully and not fall back into old habits. I may or may not have a drink before the 100 days are up. I am not interested in quitting completely and feel like the number of days is arbitrary at this point and don’t want to have a hard yes/no deadline at day 100, but want to start implementing the mindful approach naturally. So, we’ll see when the first sip happens. I’ve learned a lot and am happy with having taken this time to reprogram, but I do feel like the time off is only phase one and the second phase will be the potentially harder and more important one, but I feel capable of finding my balance!

My friend has a Halloween party in October every year and that is usually the one day of the year I drink, and drink a lot. Not so sure this year, though, not feeling especially social.

I'm dry again after our long weekend last weekend. I definitely had wayyyy too much alcohol. And fried food and sugar.

I ended up staying alcohol free after the trip early this month. We have another long weekend getaway the 1st-5th so I'll have drinks those four days. And I hope to be having celebratory champagne my first evening off after the election which will be Saturday the 9th.

I’m still dry! I’m 44 days in on my 3-month hiatus and am loving it. I just feel so much better!
