26. 3 benefits of taking a break from alcohol
As of October 2022, I am 1 year and 9 months into my own sober journey. What happens when your 30 days sober? Does a month off alcohol make a difference?
There are clear physical, emotional, mental, social and spiritual health benefits to taking a break from alcohol.
In this episode, I’m discussing 3 benefits so you can get motivated to go AF for 30 days - in case you’ve always wanted to try it, have been curious about it for a while, or have tried it before and want to give it another go.
If you’re looking for structured guidance to do a Sober month, check out my Sobriety Challenge.
30 days of self-guided challenge material consisting of videos and audios, journaling prompts and a comprehensive shadow work guide to help you prep for your first or next steps into your AF month.
Covering:
Inner child work so you can gently guide yourself in a nurturing, non-judgmental way
Generational beliefs and habits around alcohol and other drugs so you can understand where your attitude towards it comes from and what you’d prefer to pass on as your own alcohol legacy instead
Handling criticism and feedback from those around you so you can still have solid, safe friendships and interactions without feeling isolated on this AF journey
And much more!
All the things I wished I had at my disposal when I started my sober journey 1 year and 9 months ago!

Not one of my finest moments.🥴
I took this selfie whilst riding my bicycle. On my way home from another drinking bender.
It was July 2020. I felt so helpless, and guilty and ashamed and all the feels. I wanted a reminder of how I looked and felt in that moment so that I could make better choices next time I'd go out and put too much alcohol in my body temple.
I even put a reminder on my calendar that says, “When sobriety gets tough, remember July 2020”.
That reminder was on my phone the whole 1st year of my sobriety.
