It's a miracle how the very simple act of just putting down the bottle One Day at a time, over and over again, can lead to a beautiful life, a life free of fear.
Ever wondered what you might lose when you quit drinking? Sarah Elizabeth, the compassionate host of 'Sober Gratitudes', dives into this very topic in her latest episode. Sarah doesn't sugarcoat her journey; she talks candidly about the anxiety attacks, self-loathing, and resentment that plagued her during her drinking days. Imagine waking up in the middle of the night, heart pounding, drenched in sweat, only to be greeted by a wave of self-pity and low self-esteem.
That's where Sarah found herself before she decided to make a change. In this episode, titled 'Dose of Hope: All that I lost when I quit drinking', Sarah shares how quitting alcohol wasn't just about losing the bad stuff. Yes, she had to let go of the bottle, but she also lost the constant mental obsession with drinking, the feelings of being stuck and unimportant, and the anger that clouded her relationships.
By putting down the bottle one day at a time, Sarah discovered a peaceful existence free from fear and resentment. Sarah emphasizes that willingness is key in recovery. It's not about grand gestures but simple, consistent actions. She also highlights the power of surrendering and letting go of anger and resentments, which opened up space for a new kind of peaceful power in her life. For those feeling stuck, she recommends the Recovery Workshop—a resource that helped her tremendously.
While it's not a trauma recovery workshop, it offers valuable support for those needing a push to get unstuck. This episode isn't just for those struggling with alcohol; it's for anyone seeking a more peaceful and fulfilling life. Sarah's story is a reminder that while you may lose some things when you quit drinking, what you gain can be life-changing. Tune in to hear Sarah's heartfelt reflections and find out why she believes everyone deserves a comfortable, peaceful existence.
