I love this picture of Lauren celebrating New Year’s Eve as she has done for the past 30 years, working in Times Square. Well done!
This picture of my brother Haas and Nicole sums up how Q and I normally celebrate the New Year😂😴. We rarely stay up late🌙🦉 either.
This was my view on New Years Eve day, wrapping things up with clients for 2024. If it doesn’t look like Denver, you’re right!
Plato and Elwood we’re not happy we left town, but thanks to our amazing neighbor, these two boys are getting plenty of love till Sus and KC get home.
The two brothers in the picture below were our exchange students in the US when our daughter Sus was in high school.
Santi and Memo drove two hours to Mexico City to have dinner with us and it sure was delightful to see them again.
That beer you see in front of me was the last one I had before “Dry January” began. I miss it already😢🍺.
Dry January, a month-long break from alcohol, is an opportunity to reset and focus on wellness. Whether you’re cutting back or going completely dry, the benefits are impressive. It’s also a great way to show solidarity with anyone you love who struggles with alcohol.
Here’s why taking a break from booze could make January your best month yet.
Physical Benefits:
- Improved Sleep: Alcohol disrupts REM sleep, and skipping it helps you wake up more refreshed.
- Boosted Energy Levels: Experience higher energy as your body recovers from the effects of alcohol.
- Weight Loss: Cutting out empty calories from alcohol can help you shed pounds.
Mental Health Benefits:
- Better Mood: Without alcohol’s depressive effects, many people report feeling more positive and emotionally stable.
- Improved Focus: Gain mental clarity as your brain operates without the influence of alcohol.
- Stress Reduction: Discover healthier ways to cope with stress, like exercise or mindfulness.
Social Benefits:
- Stronger Connections: Focus on meaningful interactions without alcohol as a social crutch.
- Explore New Activities: Try sober-friendly events, fitness classes, or coffee dates.
- Be a Role Model: Inspire others to explore healthier habits by leading the way.
Long-Term Health Benefits:
- Liver Recovery: Give your liver a break and reduce the risk of liver disease.
- Lower Blood Pressure: Alcohol can raise blood pressure, so abstaining may improve heart health.
- Reduced Cancer Risk: Alcohol is linked to certain cancers, and reducing consumption can lower your risk.
Tips for Success:
- Set Clear Goals: Decide if you’re going completely dry or just cutting back.
- Find Alternatives: Stock up on tasty non-alcoholic drinks or mocktails.
- Seek Support: Join a Dry January challenge or share your goals with friends.
- Track Your Progress: Use a journal or app to celebrate milestones.
Ready to Take the Challenge? Whether you’re in it for the health, the savings, or the mental clarity, Dry January offers something for everyone. Here’s to a healthier, happier start to the year! Anyone who tries will get honey (when we get home).
We saw this sculpture and quote while walking in Condesa and it says everything:
“If you want to live a happy life, tie it to a goal, not to a person or an object.”
—Albert Einstein
Keep squeezing the juice out of life and look for ways to help others!
If family or friends need help… referrals are the lifeblood of my business.
