#024 Let it Go
Could energetic bubbles be the key to happiness?
We’ll find out this week on the bubbly holiday version of Drink a Little. We taste the Veuve du Vernay Ice Rosé sparkling from France and chat a little about the visual of bubbles that keep flowing upward through the wine on their journey to be released at the top. It’s really the same with us – when our feelings are able to flow through us like bubbles in sparkling wine and we ‘let it go’, we feel more vibrant and alive and in tune with our lives.
Tune in to the “Drink a Little” podcast this week. 🎧🍷

Welcome welcome you’re listening to the drink a little podcast where we talk about exploring the world of wi and Spirits while not letting it take over your life my name is Kelly dhy I’m A Joyful child of God and a certified life coach I’m also a wine educator and Wine
And Spirits brand designer I’ll show you how you can navigate your relationship with alcohol and how that mindset spills over into the rest of your life we’ll learn about the world of wine and spirits together all will bolstering your confidence that you can have boundaries around alcohol and live your
Most amazing life so how this works is we taste a little wine at the top of each episode and then we see where that leads us in the world of um not over drinking and especially during the holiday so this holiday we are talking about the
De and we talked about this word v in episode three it means Widow and we tasted the V CCO which you will see with the traditional orange label you see that in a lot of promotions and a lot of movies it’s the classic and it’s a fascinating episode and I have to admit
I thought this was the same producer but even though it says V in a very similar font this is a completely different producer and here we’re actually tasting an ice Rosé that is a Demis SEC and we’ll talk about that in a little bit when we do the tasting now this is
Actually made in France but it is not a champagne because it’s not made in the Champagne region of France so I would expect that it’s not going to be quite as complex um not as many layers not as many different flavor characteristics and I would expect it to be a lower
Price point still exceptional quality but this is simply not a champagne that was made in the true traditional method so on its label it’s called Sparkling because it will be made by adding probably adding CO2 bubbles so the bottle on this wrap is gorgeous and a departure from the classic French
Champagnes on purpose to show it’s supposed to be fun and vibrant which is so perfect at this time of year so this is a limited edition look and it actually changed from when I put it first in the fridge um it was just a full body wrap and it kind of had blue
Icicles all over it snowflakes and now that it’s been in the fridge and it’s gotten to be very chilled you can see it’s got a pink um icicles around the um around the product name the actual uh freshness label has turned to a bright pink Snowflake and it the words enjoy
Across the top have um told you hey it’s chilled it’s ready to be enjoyed so that was a wonderful um surprise when I I just pulled it out of the fridge just now so let’s give it a taste it’s got a little bit more color to it it’s a ice
Rosé so let’s see what’s going on here this is so fresh and and vibrant it’s got red fruit i’ say raspberry mostly a little bit of citus some some floral and that is it’s a blend a sarra CSO and grenage and when I said Demis SEC earlier that means half dry so it’s
A medium sweet wine light on alcohol it’s at 11% and it’s got a beautiful pink color in the glass just bringing a little bit of extra Joy to the season so this is this is perfect for um going into Christmas going into New Year’s just very approachable very fun not so
Serious and I think what people love about the Bubbles in any sparkl n champagne is that you can see the energy in the class you can see happiness you can see movement and joy and you can literally watch the bubbles from the bottom of the glass all the way in a
Line move up the top and I used to just love to um watch them almost like they’re at a lava lamp but these bubbles you know when they’re at the top then they’re they’re released and they’re gone forever so basically this I want to just appreciate that someone in olden days has figured
Out how to do this naturally and that someone in modern times has figured out how to do this um with CO2 a natural gas and just do it on demand it really it blows my mind and it speaks to the feeling of a season where I’m trying to
Come to things with a lot more childlike wonder and amazement um just that this thing gets to exist and I get to experience it in this time so this is really like the snow globe of of the holidays for me it’s interactive and we get to taste taste it so we are running
Up to New Year’s where there’s a lot of bubbly going around and the other thing that’s going around is we all start to think about the next year even if you’re not a New Year’s resolution person which I’m really not most people start to think about the next year think about
What they would change what they would like for their future and they do some future thinking some future dreaming and I picture each of these bubbles just like as a dream and those dreams are really energy those bubbles are energy moving and bobbing along running into each other those beautiful bubbles can
Represent our beautiful thoughts our beautiful dreams as they come to the surface some Sometimes they come to fruition sometimes they disappear and when I think of it as energy really everything is energy right but this is such a visual experience of energy when it’s at its most vibrant and then when
It is released and let go into the atmosphere I think of those energy bubbles each as some experience of going through or some interaction with someone and what do I want to be like what do I want to spend my energy on and if you think about the last year or the last
Month or the last couple days of what you’ve been using your energy burning your energy on and I can think of for sure myself there’s times I’ve been burning energy thinking about things I can’t change thinking about little frustrations and little things that I always just like to be different and I
Think we need to look at these things where we want them to be different and put those bubbles of energy into creation as opposed to frustration and it is really hard it’s really challenging to create instead of complain it’s really hard to create instead of judged and I I love
This as a visual reminder Remer I’m a very visual person I love these bubbles it’s a visual reminder where I can look at them and think well I wasted that energy and that’s okay and I forgive myself but I don’t really want to repeat that one again so
Um I think that um a frustration is a tiny thousand little things that maybe went wrong in 2023 and we don’t need to take those with us to 2024 they can just come to the surface and we let them go we really amplify them when we give them
More energy and make them bigger Bubbles and I want to keep my little energy move bubbles moving and positive and vibrant and I want to have so many of those bubbles tantalizingly dancing in my glass of life that they overpower or obscure any of those hurts and frustrations all those things that we
Know are going to happen along the way but we don’t need to focus Fus on them we don’t need to let those bubbles keep um building up so I know if you looked at the title of this and said Let It Go that it’s truly you know the song
I’m sure and I’m not going to sing it for you right now thankfully but that Let It Go princess song Can resonate so much if we actually let it and I know it’s it sounds like it’s easy it’s not easy for me we need to allow these things to move
Through US naturally come up and out and be released and a lot of times when I’m talking to people and they’re over drinking because they’re angry or they’re frustrated or they’re hurt or they’re shutting all of those feelings inside because they’re having normal feelings that all humans feel and then
They’re telling themselves that it’s wrong I shouldn’t be feeling like this I should hide I should stuff it down I should push that down inside of me it’s not safe to let that air bubble out and it’s like a balloon you can push it down for only so long but that balloon that
Air bubble will always naturally come back up it will come out and if you’re if you keep pushing it down and don’t let things move through you it’s going to be bigger and and Messier as opposed to these these tiny bubbles that are just moving through us there’s good
Feelings there’s bad feelings there’s frustration there’s love there’s compassion There’s Hope and peace there’s um anger there’s danger there’s discomfort there’s a lot of discomfort bubbles please don’t pretend um that you look at someone else and they’re immune from those those things you’re feeling they’re they’re not just the outer shell
Maybe the outer shell of their wine looks fancy like this wine uh but they’re still having all this energy bubbles inside of them and we can also look to someone that we see as creating this amazing energy creating amazing bubbles in their lives and what I love
About this sparkly wine is even the most beautiful amazing bubbles come to the surface and they disappear everything shifts and changes and I I see people get stuck in a place where they think nothing’s ever going to shift or change but there is always change on the horizon these bubbles of
Energy are always moving and that is something to be be thankful for and not to try to cling on to any one of these bubbles I can’t stop the bubbles in this glass and if I just let it sit here and I don’t enjoy it it’s it’s going to go
Flat so I’m wishing you an amazing bubbl 2024 where you can vibrantly create the energy you want in any situation and I’m here to help you figure out how to do that for you personally and when things are going wonky think back to this glass in this visualization of these Bubbles
And find the joyful ones find the hopeful Bubbles and don’t spend energy focusing in on the frustrating ones and the angry ones let those bubbles pass through you and let them Escape out the top of the glass that is what I have for you on this wonderful week my friends go out
