Alcohol part 2

The thing is that I’ve been feeling very connected to myself lately. I’ve been meditating and getting in touch with my body a lot and seen some remarkable results. I wonder if this is how alcohol is supposed to make you feel when you’re in touch with your body. I’m not sure whether I’ll ever drink again or not. If I do, I’ll let you know how it made me feel. But we’ll see. The way I feel about it right now, is that I don’t want to take anything that makes me feel this way into my body. I’ll probably see what happens if I just drink one glass.

Those that know me know that I’m no moralist when it comes to intoxicants. My foundational belief is that all have an absolute right to do whatever they want with their bodies and what we choose to put into them, is a matter between ourselves, God and our loved ones. But I haven’t drunk alcohol in a few months. Then, the day before writing this, I decided to buy a small bottle of wine, just 33 centiliters, and drank it together with some bread and cheese. 

At night I woke up with this slightly “mushy” feeling in my tongue, which I recognize from being hungover in my past. And when I woke up in the morning, my body felt heavy and I felt a bit shut off. After 45 minutes, I started to feel a slight nausea. And as I’m writing this, a little more than an hour after I woke up, I still feel sluggish and sort of disconnected from myself.
