Outlar

Detoxification

Chaos enters the spaces of stagnation, not to obliterate, but to break down what is not working so the inherent pattern of order can emerge in a new light, and the holy path of inward peace can once again be seen clearly.

The choice to destroy is not necessarily negative but sometimes absolutely necessary as a way to tear apart a dilapidated structure so a more solid foundation can be established upon which to build a temple of health, happiness, and love.

Life is not always easy, but the trials and tribulations are inherent in the process of progression as a way to push evolution forward, and the challenges that naturally arise are a Godsend of grace presented to teach the lesson that we are creatures of adaptation and survival.

Sober Girls Book Club

Girl Walks Out of a Bar Book by Lisa F. Smith 9pm Bali (2pm London, 5pm Dubai, 9am Toronto)

The Sober Girls Book Club is having a revival! We are so excited to kick it off with “Girl Walks Out of a Bar” - and we’ll be having Lisa Smith, author of “Girl Walks Out of a Bar” as our guest!

Lisa Smith was a bright, young lawyer at a prestigious firm in NYC in the early nineties when alcoholism started to take over her life. What was once a way of escaping her insecurity and negativity became a means of coping with the anxiety and stress of an impossible workload Girl Walks Out of a Bar is Smith's darkly comic and wrenchingly honest story of her formative years, the decade of alcohol and drug abuse, divorce, and her road to recovery Smith describes how her spiraling circumstances conspired with her predisposition to depression and selfmedication, nurturing an environment ripe for addiction to flourish Girl Walks Out of a Bar is a candid portrait of alcoholism through the lens of gritty New York realism Beneath the façade of success lies the reality of addiction
