In 2018, I decided to take a break from alcohol, and it quickly turned into a life-changing journey that’s still going strong today. But it wasn’t just about quitting booze—it was about reconnecting with myself in a way I hadn’t done in years. Meditation became my lifeline, guiding me through the discomfort, pain, and overwhelming emotions I’d been numbing with alcohol. In this post, I share how meditation helped me not only stay alcohol-free but also uncovered truths about myself I wasn’t ready to face before. If you're wondering whether alcohol and meditation can coexist, my story might just provide the answer you're searching for.
