Loosid Sober Tip of the Day December 17

There is a stigma that when you get sober, life, as we know it, will be the end of fun.

This stigma could not be further from the truth. In fact, it is quite the opposite.

When we put down the drink or drug and decide to live life on life’s terms, the world opens up for us.

One of the first things we realize is how much of life was wasted on our time drinking or putting substances in our body. Just a few hours a day for happy hour during the week, turns into 40 extra hours a month of quality time.

That could be taking time to learn a new skill, spending more time with your family, working out, meditating, volunteering to help those in need, the list is endless.

Take a few moments to reflect on how many hours were spent each week on drinking or putting substances in your body. If you are just starting out, get excited, as you are about to enter a world of more time to build incredible experiences.

If you have been sober a while, let us know what you have done since you stopped wasting these precious hours days and years that make up this thing we have called life.

How did this tip resonate with you? Let us know your thoughts below. There are many people in the Loosid community who need to hear what you have to say.

With Love, Loosid :pray::heart:

Yesterday to celebrate my friends I just put in my mind that I wasn’t going to drink and I didn’t proud of myself so if I can do it you can do it

I’m just over 6 months without any alcohol and it’s amazing how much more time I have , also every moment is better because I’m not waiting for happy hour to show up so I can drink . Looking back on a 20 year drinking career I realize how alcohol was steeling my joy and my time . Even when I wasn’t drinking I was thinking about drinking in some way wether it was where or who with or planning how to get home safely afterwards it was always present in my head steeling my time and energy. Praise for sober living it’s way better .
