I love it when a simple quote opens me to a wide new perspective or way of thinking✨.
.
It is true that even if we ate the exact same amount of food every day and exercised entirely the same way... our bodies would still look different from each other’s. It’s unreal and impossible to all try to look the same; we are literally unique (ask your fingertips), and beautiful just the way we are.
.
What if we stop trying to look “like” someone else, and start trying to look like our real selves?.
.
Embrace who you are.

Dentro de nuestro cerebro hay unas sustancias químicas llamadas neurotransmisores que están encargadas de regular la actividad eléctrica del mismo. En la mayoría de los trastornos mentales, estas sustancias no funcionan como deberían, provocando así alteraciones en los pensamientos, emociones y conductas de un individuo.
.
Es por eso que es muy importante saber que cuándo se le recetan medicamentos psiquiátricos a una persona, es porque hay una condición *real* en su cerebro que necesita tratamiento✨.
.
Este es un tema muy importante del que no hemos hablado... La vergüenza, prejuicios y estigma social que hay alrededor de tomar medicamentos con relación a nuestra salud mental. Cualquier otro tipo de medicamento está permitido socialmente; para el estómago, los pulmones, el corazón, las articulaciones, los riñones, y podría seguir así con cada parte del cuerpo.
.
Pero, ¿qué pasa cuando se trata de nuestro cerebro?, ¿por qué de repente se vuelve un debate social o algo que debería causarnos vergüenza?

Someone once told me the definition of hell is the last day you have on earth, the person you became will meet the person you could have become.
The morning I had my last & final drink – not unlike most others in the months, years and decades before it – I woke up with wine stains on my shirt, my lips, my teeth and at least 3 or more spots on the floor and random pieces of furniture.
I'm sure a few drops even landed on the dogs.
I had pickled myself again.
And I was well beyond tired of it.
Tired of my old bullshit. Tired of running. Of hiding. Of numbing and avoiding.
Of ruining everything – my happiness and health included.
I wasn't just tired of it – I was sick of it, quite literally.
Sick of keeping myself in a constant state of illness. Who in their right mind willingly volunteers to fill themselves with a disease every day?
The cycle of self-sabotage was dizzying and I wanted off.
So I made the decision to end it, without the safe-word of "maybe". I knew there wasn't room for "maybe I'll try it" or "maybe it's time". I had to put aside my wishy-washy tendency of sitting on the fence, perched somewhere between optimistically committed and fearfully uncertain.
I had to climb down and choose a side.
Was I going to side with the part of me that thought I could maybe try and stop drinking for 30 days, and see how it goes? Or was I going to side with the part of me that was screaming for certainty and decisiveness – a solid commitment without grey areas, and without maybes.
Because maybe almost always mean no.
I had to be all in. I had to throw my maybe's to the curb and put my big boy pants on and make the decision that no matter what, I was no longer going to drink. That I was done taking my happiness and health for granted and admit with every ounce of my worn out being that after 2 decades of hardcore daily research – I was never going to find anything worth keeping at the bottom of any bottle.
I had never found anything in the past other than sickness, shame, debt & regret.
Why in the world I thought the results would be different each time I drank is beyond me.

"I have learned that success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has had to overcome while trying to succeed."

"NO WINE in 4 months and I’m not even PREGNANT?! You guys. This was something I NEVER thought I could do. I live in wine country for Peet’s sake. Since being honest about my silent obsession/struggle with wine, SO MANY OF YOU have reached out to me and said this is YOU but you don’t think you could ever give it up because Mom life is too hard, you rely on it to help you relax and unwind, etc... First off, I want to THANK you for reaching out to me, for sharing your struggle, and for ALL of your support. Second, I want you to know I believe in you to do anything that you want badly enough. Because even I did it, and I thought it was impossible. ✨
So what’s the number 1️⃣ thing that’s helped me get through those rough mom days, those bad moods, my dog passing away, those parties, those nights spent alone when I was tempted?...
✨
... THE VISION... ✨
The vision of a future with higher standards all around.
The vision of a long term healthy relationship with my kids and husband.
The vision of a future of actually LIKING and loving myself and not having to have a bottle of wine to be in the same room with myself. ♀️
The vision of helping other Moms get out of a rut and create the life of THEIR dreams.
The vision of teaching my kids how to cope with pain without numbing it. ✨
The vision of building a business that makes enough money so I can take the financial pressure off my husband and he can focus on pursuing his passion of racing cars.
The vision of changing at least 1 person’s life.
The vision of younger, smoother skin when I’m 50 (not gonna lie...). ♀️
And the vision of realizing a life that’s infinitely better than anything I could have ever imagined. And I say REALizing because it IS REAL!
When you find your PIVOTAL PRIORITY, that ONE thing that will positively impact every other area of your life (for me that was giving up alcohol), and you take it day by day, writing down your visions every day so they become so much more REAL to you, you can do it. ☝
And in case you were wondering, its Kombucha in that glass. Gingeraid flav"
