Emotional Sobriety- A Welcoming Wellness Community
Every Thursday at 5pm (Except July 4)
The Kraken’s Cup has partnered with Sober in Knoxville to create a safe and accepting environment for their North Knoxville meetups.
It doesn’t take much for life to throw things our way that can easily cloud us from recognizing our true potential.
Auto-pilot becomes our default and we are once again left asking, “Why did I say or do that?”
How do we begin to respond instead of react?
How do we break the cycles that we feel may be holding us back?
Emotional sobriety is being comfortably present with all of your feelings without any one of them defining or controlling you. It’s about being able to ride the waves of life without using harmful coping mechanisms to escape. This community is for everyone who has a desire to improve their relationship with themselves and the world around them.
Together, we can help one another grow in our daily practice of emotional sobriety and create a supportive environment for all.
*The Kraken’s Cup sells kombucha. Kombucha contains less than 0.5% alcohol by volume (ABV), which is considered a non-alcoholic beverage.
Please be aware of these products as it relates to your own sobriety journey & do not attend these meetings if being exposed could affect you negatively.
If you have questions, please contact soberinknoxville@gmail.com !
