Episode 83: Sober Energy Healing and the Courage to Answer the Inner Call: Brigitta Dau’s Story

Sober energy healing practitioner Brigitta Dau is a woman who listened when her inner voice asked for more. In this episode of Sober Life Rocks, Brigitta shares how sobriety, Reiki, and creativity helped her rebuild her life from the inside out—and finally come home to herself. The Moment She Knew Something Had to Change Brigitta’s turning point did not come from a dramatic rock bottom. It came during a routine doctor’s visit when bloodwork revealed dangerously elevated liver enzymes. Sitting in that office, she heard herself say words she had never fully allowed before: “I think I need to stop drinking.” Grief, Fear, and the Quiet Inner Voice Stopping alcohol felt like losing a coping tool. Brigitta grieved the idea of drinking, feared she would lose joy, fun, and even her marriage. Yet alongside the fear was a quiet knowing—a voice telling her there was more to life than this. Finding Community When She Needed It Most During the pandemic, Brigitta quietly joined a Sober Sis 21-Day Reset after seeing an ad online. Inside the community, she found honesty, laughter, and women speaking openly about behaviors once hidden in shame. On day twenty-two, she took her last drink. Reiki and the Power of Clarity Although Brigitta had studied Reiki while still drinking, sobriety transformed her practice. She explains Reiki as making space for energy—like opening blinds to let sunlight in. The light was always there. Sobriety simply removed the noise blocking it. Becoming a Reiki Master Once sober, Brigitta’s intuition sharpened. Her Reiki work deepened, and she eventually became a Reiki Master, weaving energy healing into coaching, workshops, and global group experiences focused on emotional truth and self-connection. Creativity as a Path Back Home Creativity became another powerful healing tool. Brigitta teaches art as meditation—bypassing the thinking mind and reconnecting people with inner wisdom. She now leads creative healing workshops worldwide, blending art, energy work, and emotional exploration. Listening to the Voice Beneath the Noise Everything Brigitta has built stems from listening—listening to fear, intuition, and truth. Sobriety cleared the space for her authentic self to emerge, revealing a joyful, connected, purpose-filled life. Key Takeaways from Brigitta’s Journey Grieving alcohol is natural. Community matters more than willpower. Clarity grows when you remove what numbs you. Creativity is a healing practice. Your inner voice is always available. Final Thoughts Brigitta Dau’s story shows that sober energy healing is not about becoming someone new. It is about remembering who you already are and allowing the light to come back in.The post Episode 83: Sober Energy Healing and the Courage to Answer the Inner Call: Brigitta Dau’s Story first appeared on Sober Life Rocks.
