• On Guilt and Shame — Eclipse Season

  This Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Virgo has been nothing short of transformational.It’s a mirror showing me where I still hold guilt, where shame still whispers, and where I’m finally ready to let it all go.During this eclipse season, I’ve been gifted countless opportunities to re-evaluate the choices I make and the energy I share. I’ve been reminded that I hold all the power in my body, my boundaries, and my becoming. For years, I let guilt and shame shape how I saw myself. Religion once taught me that being human meant being wrong. But I’m not wrong for being human. I’m divine for being aware.This season has taught me that guilt isn’t guidance it’s a signal to pivot. Shame isn’t truth it’s residue from an outdated belief that I am unworthy. I can acknowledge the moments I’ve fallen short without punishing myself for being in progress.I’m learning to alchemize these lessons.To turn guilt into gratitude.To transform shame into self-compassion.To walk through the fire and rise as something stronger like a Phoenix, forged in grace.The Universe keeps giving me opportunities to grow, to test my alignment, to remind me that peace is my highest value and self-love is my truest power.I am grateful for every lesson.Grateful for every mirror.Grateful for this beautiful, messy, magnificent life.May we learn and grow. Please prioritize self-care and mindfulness.All my love, AbFabNerdMindfulness & Self-Care, Addiction Recovery, Personal Growth, Emotional Healing #ForgivingFailure #SelfForgiveness #HealingJourney #Mindfulness #AddictionRecovery #PersonalGrowth #EmotionalHealing #FreedomThroughForgiveness #AbFabNerd www.abfabnerd.com

• Lessons/Tests From The Universe

   The Universe loves to test me. Over and over. And honestly? I’m tired. But lately, I’ve been learning to see these “tests” differently not as punishments, but as opportunities. Opportunities to recognize patterns, to pause before reacting, and to choose differently. Because growth doesn’t mean never messing up; it means realizing you don’t have to keep reacting the same way. Sometimes I fail spectacularly. I say the wrong thing, I don’t set the boundary soon enough, or I walk away wishing I’d handled it better. But that’s part of the process. Each test gives me another chance to ask: 👉 “Is this really who I want to be?” 👉 “Is this how I want to respond next time?” That’s the real lesson. It’s not about passing or failing it’s about awareness.It’s about identifying that old energy, that knee-jerk reaction that no longer serves who I’m becoming, and consciously choosing something new. We’re allowed to pivot.We’re allowed to change our variables.We’re allowed to do better one test at a time. So when the Universe gives you yet another test, remember:You’re not being punished. You’re being invited to evolve.And every time you choose differently, you pass with flying colors. All my love, AbFabNerd Mindfulness & Self-Care, Addiction Recovery, Personal Growth, Emotional Healing #ForgivingFailure #SelfForgiveness #HealingJourney #Mindfulness #AddictionRecovery #PersonalGrowth #EmotionalHealing #FreedomThroughForgiveness #AbFabNerd www.abfabnerd.com

• Addiction Rock Bottoms | Why Peace Matters More Than Pain in Recovery

  Addiction Rock BottomsPeople talk about rock bottom like it’s the moment everything changes...that one crushing event that finally forces you to get clean, face yourself, and rebuild. But addiction doesn’t care about your rock bottom.I learned that the hard way. I hit plenty of “bottoms”, shameful nights, waking up in strange places, hurting people I loved, and none of them made me stop drinking. Each one just added more guilt, more self-hatred, more reasons to pour another drink.The truth is, rock bottoms don’t save you. They bury you deeper.Addiction feeds on shame. The lower you sink, the stronger its grip becomes.I didn’t stop drinking because of some catastrophic event. I stopped because I was tired, tired of feeling awful in every possible way. What finally broke the cycle wasn’t tragedy; it was something embarrassingly simple: vanity. I was tired of feeling unhealthy, tired of the weight I carried, inside and out.That decision, to do Dry January cracked something open. It wasn’t about willpower or punishment. It was about wanting peace more than I wanted oblivion.Peace became my turning point. Once I realized I preferred remembering my nights to regretting them, everything shifted. I stopped romanticizing the chaos and started falling in love with calm.Addiction didn’t care about my rock bottoms. But I did. And choosing peace, choosing myself, is what finally brought me home.I wish for you healing and personal growth.Please prioritize self-care and mindfulness.All my love, AbFabNerdMindfulness & Self-Care, Addiction Recovery, Personal Growth, Emotional Healing #ForgivingFailure #SelfForgiveness #HealingJourney #Mindfulness #AddictionRecovery #PersonalGrowth #EmotionalHealing #FreedomThroughForgiveness #AbFabNerd www.abfabnerd.com

• Addiction Recovery | Choosing Peace & Mindful Freedom

  Addiction recovery isn’t a straight line—it’s a series of awakenings. For me, it began in a courtroom. Court-mandated classes. AA meetings. The boxes I had to check to prove that I was trying. I understand that AA saves lives and helps countless people find community and accountability. But it didn’t work for me. I remember sitting in those meetings, still drinking every day, still numbing. I wasn’t ready to stop. The idea of a life without alcohol felt impossible. Who would I be at the pool? At a party? On a dance floor? Sobriety sounded like boredom—like losing my identity. But the truth was, alcohol had already stolen my peace. My turning point came through Dry January—a “temporary challenge” that turned into transformation. I didn’t quit drinking forever; I simply decided not to drink today. That mindset shift changed everything. My body adjusted first, then my mind, then my spirit. I realized I didn’t need alcohol to be fun, interesting, or alive. Now, years later, I don’t drink because it doesn’t align with my top value: peace. Recovery for me wasn’t about replacing one addiction with another—it was about reclaiming my power to choose. If AA, therapy, community, or mindfulness helps you, embrace it. Recovery looks different for everyone. But I hope you find what I found: the strength to choose peace over punishment, and presence over numbness. May we learn and grow. Please prioritize self-care and mindfulness. All my love, AbFabNerd Mindfulness & Self-Care, Addiction Recovery, Personal Growth, Emotional Healing #ForgivingFailure #SelfForgiveness #HealingJourney #Mindfulness #AddictionRecovery #PersonalGrowth #EmotionalHealing #FreedomThroughForgiveness #AbFabNerd www.abfabnerd.com

• Presently Prioritizing Peaceful Passage

  Presently Prioritizing Peaceful PassagePeace is my highest value. It hasn’t always been this way. For years I carried a simmering anger I couldn’t name—an inner dissatisfaction I tried to numb with distraction, addiction, and drama. I longed for peace but didn’t know how to claim it.Then came a turning point. In 2020, during Dry January, I finally chose to stop numbing and start healing. I wanted mornings without regret, nights without apologies, and a life free from the endless cycle of self-punishment. Choosing peace wasn’t easy—but it changed everything.Today, peace lives in my soul. It grows stronger every time I follow through on my promises, nourish my body and spirit, and practice the small daily deeds that keep me grounded. Nature, mindfulness, and forgiveness feed this quiet strength. I can’t undo the pain of the past, but I can forgive myself, do better, and keep choosing calm over chaos.“Presently Prioritizing Peaceful Passage” is my mantra and my mission. It’s an invitation to cultivate a peace that passes all understanding—a peace that’s real, deep, and absolutely possible for you too.I wish for you a soul-deep peace and personal growth.Please prioritize self-care and mindfulness.All my love,AbFabNerdhttps://www.abfabnerd.com/mindfulness-blog/presently-prioritizing-peaceful-passageMindfulness & Self-Care, Addiction Recovery, Personal Growth, Emotional Healing #ForgivingFailure #SelfForgiveness #HealingJourney #Mindfulness #AddictionRecovery #PersonalGrowth #EmotionalHealing #FreedomThroughForgiveness #AbFabNerd www.abfabnerd.com
