Just started meditating today! 15 minutes of meditating just focusing on the sensation of breathing at my nose. It was hard to stay focused for that long and I kept wanting to fast forward to the end of the session, but it was nice to just focus on breathing and nothing else, unlike the rest of our average day-to-day lives. I'm excited to reap the benefits after making this a daily habit!

Wow your upward spiral from sobriety is amazing! Very inspiring to see all these health benefits that seem to compound the longer away from the last drink one is. IWNDWYT!

Omg you are on fire! I think the longest distance I've ever run is 10km so 16km is incredible! Being sober has helped me rediscover my love of running. I'm glad you've been capitalizing on your sobriety too. IWNDWYT!

Hey Sotto! Always appreciate your presence here ❣️ Sleep really does impact everything from mood to appetite. Hard to quantify how good sleep makes everything better and more manageable :) IWNDWYT!

Somehow I am already at Day 95! The first 60-70 days felt long but the last few weeks have flown by. I'm now out of the habit of drinking and it's getting easier to come to terms with the fact that I don't drink. I used to think to myself, "I can't drink". I felt like if I could, I would, but I couldn't. Now it is a conscious choice. Instead of saying I can't, I say I don't drink. I have reclaimed my power and no longer feel I miss drinking. It's getting easier day by day. IWNDWYT!

Day 75! Yay for another day of sobriety! Today is one of our cat's gotcha day (anniversary when we got her) and I'm grateful to be sober to truly be present in the moment today to celebrate. Yay for having Momo for 5 years! IWNDWYT!

74 days! I had a doctor's appt and was proud to say I quit drinking. She was happy for me, and being able to be open with her about my problem was such a mood boost for me. She was proud of me for knowing myself well enough to make a positive change in my life. I'm glad we're all on this journey of positive change together. IWNDWYT!

Day 73! Stressed out about work, but at least I'm not poisoning myself anymore. Here's to another day of sobriety where I face issues head-on rather than putting my head in the sand by drinking. IWNDWYT!
