Wow, that’s soooo great! I’d give you at least a dozen likes if I could! 
PS, you can sage around a person also, I’ve done that too!

I am a fan of moonlight cleansing and charging my stones. I am not so great at cleansing them otherwise. 
I also like charging moonwater on full moon evenings.
And just because, here are a few of my favorite stones…

Good afternoon, everyone… at least, it’s afternoon here in central Europe. I have pretty much got through my first alcohol-free weekend in quite a long time… it helps that, on Sundays, the only local store that sells alcohol closes at noon, and I made a point of not going out.
As such, I am coming up to 4 days. It isn’t much compared to what some of the rest of you have managed, but I’m still pleased.
I have made myself some simple to prepare chicken and asparagus soup, I have a glass of flavoured water with me… and this will be a calm evening of studying a bit, then watching a bit of TV and bed at the usual time. This has been a long weekend, nothing but work.
Just as well that I don’t really have a life!

checking in…day 22! Cravings have subsided but I’m still suffering in my gut, low energy, and muscle soreness. I think drinking has given me a gluten sensitivity gonna check with the doc next week.

@SassyRocks @CapriciousCapricorn You both have such beautiful crystal collections!! Something about sobriety brings us so much closer to mother earth and awareness of energies! I have been working hard this week to make my own place one of healing. 
pictures coming soon!

You can make thru, keep in mind, all storms eventually clear…I’m on day 6 with a very strong determination to succeed. I’ve been here many times before and every relapse became worse. It really is such a waste of precious time…

Day 17. Very emotional today, fluctuating between anger and tears. Feel like I need to escape or numb these feelings. Could just be lack of sleep. Neighbours were partying until 2.30am this morning. Didn’t realise how much I hated the sound of drunks cackling - all that forced revelry. Maybe I’m just having a bad day. Bath and an early night should sort me out. Congratulations to everyone checking in.

Day 295 still struggling. I’m in the middle of a 8 night camping trip and had a wedding to attend yesterday. The drinks were flowing and i was romancing the drink some, in not gonna lie BUT the smell of the beer was just awful to me. My wife had her 1 margarita there, probably the first drink she’s had this whole year. All in all the wedding was great but it did put me in a funk a bit. I don’t think I’ve been keeping myself hydrated, too much coffee and dehydration never helps. Have a great Sunday all.

Within hours of achieving my first clean week without alcohol. My brain keeps saying have a drink you don’t really have a problem. Finding it hard tonight but trying to stay busy. Already feel an inner peace that has illuded me for so long in my first week. Just wish I could turn off the part of my brain thats telling me to drink!

I used to get them from various stores nearby, but many are closed or not requiring people to wear masks so I don’t shop there anymore. I have found some good sources on etsy, tho some others not so great.
