SPIRITUAL WOMEN DRINK.

A few years ago on the last evening of a retreat we were out at a pub for a celebratory meal and the facilitator innocently gushed ‘spiritual girls drink’ as she clinked glasses with all that were close to her.

At the time I was a few years into my sober journey highly introverted & quiet…..unsure of how to navigate begin sober in a society that highly normalizes alcohol. Wanting to retreat into the background & not draw any attention to myself or my non-alcoholic beer as everyone enjoyed their bevies.

Many years later and many paths later…..my feelings towards the statement ‘spiritual girls drink’ is….

Spiritual women do whatever the f@ck they want.

Drink.
Sober.

Sex.
Celibacy.

Yoga.
Meditation.

Circle.
Ceremony.

Nightclubs.
New moon rituals.

Netflix.
New Age.

Breathwork.
Tapping.

A combination of it all.

There’s no right or wrong way to do the spiritual path. There is no one path, no one way to be spiritual. It’s about the intention that goes into all of it, the alignment with the soul that is felt within all of it.

What works for you, might not work for me.
What works for me, might not work for you.

My path has been an interwoven tapestry of many modalities, teachings, and lineages….sobriety is part of it. It is solely mine and what is in alignment with my soul.

There is no one path, no one way…..only the path that your truth & soul guides you on.
The work is to listen it.
