Why do women drink?

#TransformationTuesday I shared this yesterday on my personal Facebook page... and then I realized that it was too good not to share here with you! It's an article is called Giving up alcohol opened my eyes to the infuriating reason women drink. 

I quit alcohol at the turn of 2012. It was a way to honor myself and my commitment to living a cleaner, more clear and sustainable lifestyle. This article rings so true and I've had many of the experiences the author writes about herself including witnessing the alarming number of typically health-conscious events being merged with alcohol, such as yoga.

The author poses the question "Is there nothing so inherently absorbing or high-stakes or pleasurable that we won’t try to alter our natural response to it?" and I say... there so is! When you're living life for you, when you're chasing your own dreams and owning them, there is nothing more thrilling. You don't need a cocktail to enhance pure fulfillment and bliss :)

And the clincher... "We can’t afford to live lives we have to fool our own central nervous systems into tolerating." Amen sister.
