The question is exciting, what motives we have for drinking coffeeIf you just like it and you enjoy it every now and then, there's little reason to stop.
Coffee as a drug has the image in this society, "pick-me-up" and "Energy dispenser" It has this effect temporarily by putting the digestive tract on alert and agitation.
Later on, I feel all the more tired and since I stopped drinking coffee and black/green tea over a year ago, I am more lively all day long than before.
Sometimes I theorize that coffee is the last strongly defended bastion of the ego. Why? The ego claims you need coffee to get or stay awake. The real and only source of wakefulness is divine energy. Neither coffee nor any other earthly substance causes natural wakefulness. There are effects, yes. But the only cause is the life energy that flows through us ceaselessly. The ego is on a separation course and defines coffee as the cause of vitality.
There were times when I drank a lot of coffee, at some point with very interesting effects: First of all, it started out that coffee did not cheer me up, but on the contrary made me tired.
On a construction site I wanted to have an espresso after lunch and stay alert, intuitively calling out to the universe: Please send me some energy to perk up immediately and let me enjoy the espresso just like that!
Immediately, I felt energy flowing through me and charging me up. Surprised and chipper, I went to the machine in the certainty that I could now simply enjoy this espresso.
And so it was.
The life energy that belongs to us and flows through us is so far superior to any effect of substances that it can neutralize these effects and even turn them into the opposite. This experience and several others have given rise to the deep conviction in me that substances have only very limited effects. And these effects are mostly directly dependent on our thoughts.
