The False Softness of Alcohol vs. The True Softness Within

The Illusion of Softness

How many times have choices been made in moments of blurred clarity?

The glass of wine to “relax.” The cider to “feel free.” The shot to “forget.”

Each sip promises ease, but what it offers is a veil. A fleeting softness that mimics your natural state, only to leave you emptier when the illusion dissolves. This is the false softness of alcohol: an artificial reality that numbs rather than nourishes.

The truth is that many undesirable outcomes in life words spoken in haste, nights that unravel, mornings of regret have been shaped under this false influence. Choices made not from your authentic softness, but from a temporary distortion of it.

The Wisdom of the Body

Your body is not foolish. It is a sanctuary equipped with wisdom.

Every cell is an oracle; every sensation is a messenger. When you numb your senses, you silence your own temple.

Alcohol dulls this natural apparatus. You may soften, yes but it is not the softness of truth. It is the softness of forgetting. And in that forgetting, you miss the gentle warnings, the sacred “no,” the intuitive whispers that are your lifeline.

Know Thyself: The Delphic Maxim

At the Temple of Apollo at Delphi were inscribed these words:

“Know thyself, and you will know the universe and the gods.”

When you seek false softness outside of yourself, you wander from this wisdom. The softness you crave has always been within you waiting to be remembered. When you truly know yourself, you discover the softness that no drink can imitate: the softness of presence, of clarity, of inner safety.

Advaita: No Separation

Advaita teaches us that the microcosm (you) and the macrocosm (the universe)

are not two they are One.

When you are intoxicated, you split yourself from this truth. You create a false separation

a universe in which your body is silenced, your intuition muted, your wholeness divided.

But in true softness, there is no divide. Your breath is the universe breathing. Your ease is the cosmos resting. The softness you feel within is the softness of creation itself.

The Invitation to True Softness

You do not need a glass to soften.

You do not need a bottle to relax.

You do not need an artificial veil to feel feminine, beautiful, or free.

True softness is sustainable, because it is natural. It is not borrowed, not bought, not poured into a glass. It is the softness that remains when you are fully awake, fully present, fully embodied.

It is the softness of sitting with your feelings and finding that they are safe.

The softness of trusting your intuition. The softness of walking in the world as a woman who knows herself.

To know yourself is to know softness. To know softness is to know the universe.

Closing Reflection

Perhaps you, too, can recall choices shaped under the false influence of alcohol moments that felt free but ended in regret. Let those memories be your teachers, not your shame.

Every misstep is an invitation to remember: softness does not come from forgetting, but from remembering who you truly are.

The next time the world offers you a drink to relax, pause and ask yourself:

What if I already am the softness I seek?
