2 days of Sobriety ✔️ 2 days of Intermittent Fasting ✔️ 20 minutes of Yoga ✔️ Phone set to Do Not Disturb during working hours ✔️ Reading BOOKS instead of watching YouTube ✔️ After over a year of taking a daily edible at night, one edible turned into 2 on some days, which eventually led to smoking weed INTENTIONALLY on special occasions (to enhance spiritual reflection), which turned into mindlessly numbing out, just because. My relationship with Mary Jane has changed over the years—I believe it has benefits when used INTENTIONALLY and not MINDLESSLY, but as a former addict, I can find myself slipping into old behaviors from time to time. Luckily this little period of Wake & Baking throughout the day only lasted for a few weeks, and in that time it taught me what I needed to learn during this part of my journey, but reminded me that it’s important to stay BALANCED. That being said—I was worried I would have a hard time with that first day of sobriety, but I actually found the opposite to be true—it was WAY easier than I anticipated and I feel literally like A MILLION BUCKS, with NO unpleasant side effects of withdrawal! 🤯 My body was telling me I needed a break, as well as some spiritual fasting and light movement outside in the sun to give my body a break from constant digestion and feelings of sluggishness. The mental clarity I’ve found in only 2 days was quite shocking at first, until I remembered that for the better part of 7 years, I chose NOT to indulge in MJ or alcohol at all! Everyone has their OWN relationship with their OWN body, and what it needs in relation to substances…I don’t foresee myself giving up anything permanently, but I am definitely enjoying this period of clarity and am excited to see what new creations will be birthed! #onedayatatime #sober #soberissexy #soberlifestyle #mindfulness #breathwork #yogadailypractice
