Hello!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Today I would like to share a little project or challenge that came to my mind this morning. I want to stop drinking alcohol for one week and see how I feel during and after. I am not drinking a bottle of vodka every night \u2013 it is not that bad, hah! My husband is French and we both love red wine with some cheese and baguette. Merlot, M\u00e9doc, Bordeaux, je t\u2019aime. When my son is in bed and I write and research I love to drink some wine to relax. I am also struggling with a bit of extra weight that I want to lose. I don\u2019t sleep too well these days and I want to change that. Sleep is important. These days, my son sleeps 14 hours straight every night! It may be all linked to drinking at night and I would like to find out if this is really the case. <\/span><\/p>\n

My recent post about health<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/em> and how important it is to take care of myself, made me think that it is time for a little booze-brake or a jump of the booze-cruise for a bit,\u00a0if you will. I also want to start practicing Yoga on a regular basis again. I do tell myself that I am taking a break. That I might drink again or maybe not. Who knows. I just want to see how I feel and decide accordingly.\u00a0<\/span>This year I want to get to know myself better, feel better and be as healthy as I can be. I don\u2019t want to numb my brain to relax for a while. I also want to figure out if these bummed-out\/sad feelings I have sometimes are related to alcohol. Maybe I start being more positive and not as cranky (\u201cbitchy\u201d) at points. Hello, Jean! \ud83d\ude09 I don\u2019t want to stay up too late anymore either to write and drink wine. It has become some sort of routine to do so almost\u00a0on a daily basis. Again, I am not saying I was ever completely drunk but a drinking-routine is never a good thing. These are my main reasons for challenging myself to stop drinking for a while. I thought that it might be an inspiration for some of you to join me. I might even write better and have more ideas for articles! Who knows. Let\u2019s find out I would say. I will write an update in one week; next \u201cThirst\u201d-Day. \ud83d\ude09\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Have you ever thought about taking a break from booze for a while? Maybe we can do it together and share experiences and what we accomplish?\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n
