sobriety is the best thing I've ever done for myself. It was tough to do in the very beginning, but the benefits have been 100% worth the initial struggle. My instincts have never been more fine tuned, I have clarity, freedom, and incredible balance in my life. My lows aren't as low, my highs aren't as high. I can handle anything. I stopped drinking 6 months before the pandemic, and was able to ride it out in a calm head space. Sobriety is an incredible gift you can give yourself!
Im almost 2 years sober and Im so grateful to have finally had the realization that alcohol isnt my “best friend”. It has tried to kill me multiple times and it’s an enemy.
Your video is empowering. I’ve been working on sobriety for over a decade. I’m 37 and as of today, I’m declaring recovery again. No more relapsing! I really feel this is it. Please say a prayer for my strength and my focus.
also try habits unpluggeded by kevin Ohara if you haven't already. his line is keep the alchohol out your mouth. i am on the sobriety path as well. been about 3 weeks. i use that as a mantra when I feel stressed and also I love Kombucha. May you have much ease on your path sober .
Im 37 too, been sober for about 6 years now. Getting sober was the best decision I've ever made. I relapsed countless times before quitting this last time. Don't ever get discouraged, you can do it!
Thank you for sharing this. I am sober now for three months. My fiancé left me and moved to another state because of my drinking. He said he needs to see me another 3 months sober if he would even consider counseling then. He is dating already. I feel so devastated.
@@theelizardqueen thank you so much your kind words!! Ironically he has been coming back full force after one year. I did have a lot to work on but leaving a loved one when going through a hard time is not my idea of true love. How are you doing??
Wow babe that is devastating. I can relate in everyway. I hope you reach your goal of sobriety and I hope you find your way to happiness. Im rooting for your family to be whole again. You will get through this.
I have almost a month sober and this information/ video if very appreciated by me. Thank you so much . I feel so so empowered . Gave me a breathe of fresh air as to how I look at alcohol. God bless you !
A woman’s power is in choice over what goes in her body. Choosing not to ingest a known toxic substance is the ultimate exercise of freedom and power. Choose your own path, your own well-being, respect for your temple, your body, your mind, your spirit, your essence as a woman.
Thank you for your video! I hope for a day when America cuts down on alcohol consumption in the same way that it has managed to cut down on tobacco use. I think your wonderful video is a step towards that.
I don't drink and I don't smoke either. For me drinking and smoking is a waste of money. The average price for a pack of cigarettes in my country ( Greece )is €5. If you smoke a pack a day ( some people smoke 2 packs )it's 5×30 = €150 ( or 300€)a month plus if you go out every weekend and spend €20 on drinks (say 2 drinks on Saturday and 2 on Sunday with an average price of €5) €20×4 = €80. 150€( 300€)+80€= 230€ ..... 230€ per month ( or 380€)😳...only for alcohol and cigarettes. It's from €2,760 to 4.560 every year( all this for alcohol and smoking ...I also used an example of drinking twice a week but there are people who drink daily)😳😳😳 its ridiculous .I keep the money and do something else I exercise, i travel, i have hobbies , I go to beauty treatments every month I learn foreign languages and I also save for emergencies.
Im in a class of women for sobriety which is awesome for women empowerment im choosing to understand more of what women for sobriety intells as i graduate from treatment and job readt to pass a drop for employment and be sober minded with clear conscience and understanding of the choice and decisions i make
With all the promotion of mommy wine culture and red wine being good for the heart, women need to know the dangers of alcohol that doctors and the media is not telling us. Other than getting a buzz, I don't think most men ever really thought alcohol carried any health benefits. We understand the havoc it brings on our body. However, it's promoted different to women and they're taking it in.
@@skypiev4438 In the UK up until 1982 pubs could and would refuse to serve women based on their gender alone. In Australia up until 1970 women were not allowed to enter a bar and could be kicked out due to intoxication even if they were not drinking alcohol. In the US lone female drinkers were presumed to be prostitutes and many cities passed blue laws banning unescorted women from drinking establishments. In Mexico up until the 1980’s bars wouldn’t allow women nor dogs inside. I remember visiting Mazatlan in Sinaloa just two years ago and seeing a bar inscribed with gentleman only on the exterior, a paint job from several decades prior. As recently as 2016 bars in Paris, France, have stated men only. Need I go on? Every day is a school day Sky Pie V 🙂
Just be grateful for her bravery to share her thoughts , experience & facts . This is a great video . The zooming in & out is probably something she has gotten better about

Sobriety is good for the body, mind and emotional health. I've been sober 6 years and never felt so good about myself.
That’s great that you stopped before the pandemic. Congrats! A lot of us increased during that time, but I’m 2 weeks+ alcohol free so far.

Its crazy when you realize this and see all the justifications people make for hurting themselves.
Fantastic video, thank you! The peace that comes from sobriety is worth its weight in gold. ❤

This is so great. Thank you, a good wake up call ❤️
What’s with the camera zooming in and out???
Excellent video ♥
can you please list the titles of the books on your table?
How do I go about joining a Sobriety group
At about 1:45 you said women weren’t allowed in taverns with men… that’s not true at all. Where did you hear that?
Prostitutes were the only women allowed prior to 1900s/ late 1800s
This is true. Perhaps not now in our present-day society, but this was the reality of many cultures previously.
@@JesikaMS No. Women in most cultures long ago were allowed in taverns. you’re speaking of the minority not the majority.

@@JesikaMS So you’re telling me there were no women in pubs and taverns during The renaissance and medieval times? Lol have a fantastic day.
This video keeps zooming in and out which is very annoying

What about men
Love the message, not the speaker
