alcohol

Hi, I’m new here. I just received my Reiki I instruction a few days ago. Before my attunement, I had a pretty strong desire for alcohol. I don’t think I was a full-blown alcoholic, but I was headed in that direction. I felt I needed it to relax or just deal with certain stresses. It certainly interfered with my desires to live a clean, spiritual life. I don’t know how many times I planned to do yoga and meditate, but I just had a drink instead, which made it impossible to do anything spiritual. Since my attunement, the thought of drinking makes me nauseated. I feel pretty strongly that even one sip would make me very ill. I’m thrilled at the prospect of no longer having the desire to drink, but will it last? Is this sort of thing common? I’m sure most of you have always lived a pretty clean life, but I thought I’d put the question out there anyway.
