    • BOOK STUDY OCTOBER – YOU CAN HEAL YOUR LIFE
      Hello, You Can Heal Your Life by Louise Hay was the first book I read when I first stopped drinking. Ironically, my Alcoholics Anonymous sponsor gave it to me to read. I say ironically because it kind of contradicts everything that is preached and taught in the AA. I do believe it was this book that planted the seed and inspired me to make the daring move to leave the twelve-step program and realize sober freedom. We will read chapters 1-4 this week and I'll meet you back here in the forum to give you my thoughts and invite you to share your experience. See you soon, Teresa

    • NOVEMBER BOOK STUDY MINDSET CAROL DWECK

      Mindset By Carol Dweck 

      The books that I chose for the final quarter of 2021 were on purpose. They contributed to who I was becoming on my journey to alcohol autonomy. It’s exciting to revisit these books at THIS stage in my life. It’s like, oh yeah, I forgot about that, and I am interpreting the content much deeper and broader than before. And taking notes and recording thoughts for your benefit is taking it to the next level. Thank you for being a part of my journey too.

    • October 1, 2021 INTENTIONS LIVE
      October 1 INTENTIONS LIVE INTENTIONS LIVE NOTES October 1 SETTING YOUR INTENTION FOR OCTOBER Please, please, please do not set your intention around drinking or not drinking. That will keep your focus on drinking, and from a neuroscience perspective, it creates a lot of resistance, takes a lot of energy, and eventually, you run out of willpower and give in. Instead, I want you to think about what you would gain, get, experience if you didn’t drink as much. Peace, better sleep, a clear mind, etc.… Let’s choose peace. Gain greater peace for October. What would having more peace give you? Better sleep, less agitation, better communication, be more responsive than reactive, smile more, laugh more easily, mmmm doesn’t that feel good. You’re building a case. So what are some things you can do that will promote peace Examples: meditate, walk, set a schedule for limiting potential antagonists, eat well, burn incense, use essential oils, burn a candle, listen to soothing music, take a break specifically to pet your cat/dog, stand outside and take a deep breath and raise your arms overhead while giving thanks Pick one thing you’ll do to promote peace every day this month. If after a week you are feeling really good about the daily practice, add another small practice. But keep it small and simple. On the third Friday, October 15th, you’ll have an opportunity to report, reflect, refine, and release. PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE What is your intention? Think small but meaningful. Meaning it matters to you and moving you toward how you want to feel, who you want to be, how you want to live. How does this intention support moving you forward? Make a list of small, simple thoughts or actions that support your October intention so you can add-on when you feel inspired.
