Podcasts about Allen Carr

This week, I'm unpacking the helpful and surprising connection between Allen Carr's method for quitting smoking and breaking free from overeating. What does lighting a cigarette have in common with late-night snacking or emotional eating? More than you think. I share the stats, the mindset shift that changes everything, and how we can use Maester Carr's wisdom to step into more freedom and fewer food regrets. I also give you an update on my Pacific Crest Trail training (the blisters are real!) and talk about how I plan for my joy eats—and why that makes all the difference.  This one is part insight, part inspiration, and all about reclaiming your agency, one intentional decision at a time. Tune in and let's walk this path together!Quote of the Week:“It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver.” – by Mahatma GandhiLet's go, let's get it done.

Today we have Alyssa. She is 30 years old from Vancouver, WA and took her last drink on September 5th, 2024.   Sponsors for this episode include: Better Help – 10% off of your first month Sober Link –   Next Monday, our five-week course called Ditching the Booze. This is our alcohol-free 101 crash course and is included with Café RE membership. All sessions are live and you're tuning in with others who are in the same spot as you. The sessions are also recorded in case you can't attend.   On Tuesday, April 1st, registration opens for our flagship retreat in Bozeman which is always a lot of fun. In addition to our lake hangout, breathwork and recovery workshops, we're also playing laser tag.   [03:20] Thoughts from Paul:   Today Paul talks about why alcohol can be so hard to quit, why the process of quitting can take years and can contain many stops and starts.   Addiction guru Gabor Mate says, “addictions are always a human response to pain, suffering and trauma”. We are constantly in search of homeostasis. When we find something effective at helping us find this relief, it becomes our first technique to use when we are in pain. After drinking long enough, you'll get to the point where you only feel good, or dopamine will only be created when we are drinking.   It takes time after quitting drinking for our body to naturally create dopamine on its own. You will need to learn new routines, create new habits and figure out a way to fill the time that used to be spent drinking. Paul shares with us several other reasons quitting drinking is hard.   Why do you think quitting drinking is so hard? Comment on RE's Instagram page. There's a post for today's episode.   [09:02] Paul introduces Alyssa:   Alyssa lives in Vancouver, WA with her fiancé and two Rotskis. She currently works as a server and in her free time she enjoys reading and traveling with her fiancé. They are currently trying to determine where they are going to move to be closer to family.   Alyssa says she had an early introduction to alcohol but never really considered it an issue until she met her fiancé who doesn't drink. For years, everyone around her drank so she didn't notice her own drinking.   Alyssa's drinking increased slowly but became daily during the pandemic. In 2021 she read Easy Way to Quit Drinking by Allen Carr and was able to stop for a few months.   For Alyssa, her drinking began to create an inner turmoil, and it started to erode her confidence because she was making promises to herself and then breaking them by drinking instead of accomplishing her goals. After quitting for a period of time, Alyssa thought that she would be able to moderate. In time, she says, she was right back where she was.   After moving in with her father while they save up to find their own place, Alyssa says the lack of goals and uncertainty of the future found her drinking more to cope. She was no longer active and was losing self-esteem while anxiety and depression took hold. At the bottom of her heart, Alyssa knew that eliminating alcohol would help fix the way she was feeling.   Alyssa chose a quit date and started seeking sober podcasts and books to prepare, including This Naked Mind. It was after a night out with friends that Alyssa told her fiancé that she didn't want to drink anymore. He was very supportive of her decision and offered to help however he could.   Alyssa continued to read This Naked Mind and participated in a 30-day sober challenge. This paired with the liberation she felt from her decision led to a pink cloud experience for Alyssa. Anxiety and depression started to lift quickly. Going forward, she is trying to figure out what she wants to do in the future, and she believes in sobriety the options are endless.   Alyssa's parting piece of guidance: Just listen to that little voice. Give sobriety as many chances as you gave alcohol.       Recovery Elevator Rule 22: lighten up - let's do our best not to take ourselves too seriously.

In this week's episode, we delve into Allen Carr's influential work, "Allen Carr's EasyEasy Way to Stop Smoking." This episode unpacks the psychological and social constructs that perpetuate smoking addiction and explores Carr's revolutionary approach to quitting smoking without relying on willpower. I will also share my own experience of getting free from both nicotine and alcohol and explain the inspiration behind the episode. We discuss how smokers are often misled into believing that smoking provides pleasure, when in reality, it merely relieves the withdrawal symptoms from the last cigarette, creating a cycle of dependency. We'll also explore the concept of brainwashing in smoking addiction, where societal and psychological conditioning makes quitting seem impossible. Carr's method focuses on changing smokers' perspectives, debunking the myths that smoking is a crutch or provides genuine pleasure. By addressing these misconceptions, Carr argues that quitting becomes not only achievable but surprisingly easy. Join us as we dissect the reasons why willpower alone is often insufficient and how understanding the true nature of smoking can fundamentally change the quitting process. I hope that this episode will be the beginning of your vice-free life! I trust that this episode, will prove beneficial to you, your loved ones, and the broader world. As always, I will be sharing several thought-provoking concepts for you to ponder and apply in real-life scenarios in the upcoming days. For those feeling adventurous, there will also be a challenge awaiting your participation!All the love, all the power, all of the time!

Show NotesSummary:In this episode of The Weight Loss Mindset Podcast, host Rick Taylar explores the challenging topic of emotional eating, a common issue where individuals turn to food in response to stress, boredom, or other emotions, rather than hunger.Rick discusses the pitfalls of traditional approaches that rely on willpower and restriction and offers an alternative method focused on understanding and managing emotions without the use of food.He emphasizes the importance of awareness, acceptance, building new coping strategies, and aligning actions with personal values.Key Takeaways:* Awareness Without Judgment: Recognize the triggers of emotional eating such as stress, boredom, or loneliness without harsh self-criticism. This awareness is crucial for developing the ability to manage these triggers effectively. * Acceptance of Emotions: Learn to allow uncomfortable feelings to be present. This involves acknowledging and giving space to emotions without immediately reacting to them by reaching for food. * Developing New Coping Mechanisms: Identify and practice alternative responses to emotional triggers that do not involve eating. Strategies might include journaling, meditation, or engaging in a hobby. * Aligning with Values: Connect more deeply with your core values, whether they be relationships, creativity, or career. This connection can help navigate emotional challenges more effectively without resorting to food. * Seeking Support: Reach out for professional help if needed and leverage the support of friends and family. Community and guidance can significantly aid in managing emotional eating.Recommended Resources:* Book: "Allen Carr's Easy Way to Quit Emotional Eating: Set yourself free from binge-eating and comfort-eating" by Allen Carr. With Allen Carr's Easyway method, you can eat as much of your favorite foods as you want, whenever you want, as often as you want, and be the exact weight you want to be, without dieting, special exercise, using willpower or feeling deprived.https://www.amazon.com/Allen-Carrs-Easy-Emotional-Eating-ebook/dp/B07ZWCLFD6/ * Article: "Emotional Eating and How to Stop It" Do you eat to feel better or relieve stress? These tips can help you stop emotional and stress eating, fight cravings, and find more satisfying ways to feed your feelings.https://www.helpguide.org/articles/diets/emotional-eating.htm Emotional eating is a prevalent challenge, but with mindful awareness, acceptance of emotions, and the development of new coping mechanisms aligned with personal values, individuals can create a healthier relationship with food.

We moeten het eens over alcohol hebben. Geen betere gast dan Roel, die al meer dan 2222 dagen -and counting- zonder één drup door het leven gaat. Roel running sober. Hoe dat ging, van een stevige, gezellige drinker naar een geheelonthouder, hoor je in de podcast. Maak je geen zorgen: de passie preken of de status van moraalridderschap gaan aan hem voorbij. Bewustwording, daar draait het om. En net dat, doet wel iets. Prisca bekent met schaamrood op de wangen dat ze ooit al wel te veel heeft gedronken dan goed voor haar was. Enige tijd al gaat ze bewuster om met “den drankduvel.” Nu zit de schaamte ergens anders: soberschaamte. Jezelf schamen omdat je niet/minder drinkt maar je wel wat peer pressure voelt. Vaak zelfs onbewust of met een kwinkslag -ge zijt toch niet zwanger?- maar het is er wel. Alleszins, langere periodes bewust niet drinken kan echt wel deugd doen en je kan nog steeds de toffe pee zijn of de fun girl. Alcohol is zo cultureel ingebed en beschikbaar dat het lijkt alsof het alleen maar plezant is met. Dat is een fabel. Wat Roel ons vertelt is redelijk ontnuchterend: hoe je zintuigen meer gaan open staan, hoe je meer aanwezig bent en nét wel voelt. Weg van de verdoving. Hoe zijn tweede leven begon. En, toch even de feiten op een rij. Door onze toegenomen kennis, gaan we anders om met alcohol. Het maatschappelijk draagvlak is veranderd. Het is een schadelijk product, of vergif om het met de woorden van Roel te zeggen. Veilige grenzen zijn er niet. Maar door bewust ermee om te gaan, verklein je alvast de kans op gezondheidsschade. Nog meer in deze aflevering: Voor even of voor het leven? The word is out. Prisca heeft het afgelopen jaar weinig gedronken en dat gaat goed af. What's next? Jess heeft het over de nutritionele waarde van alcohol. Ra ra ra? Wij verwijzen naar enkele interessante accounts als je bewuster wil omgaan met alcohol:  Ontwijnen, No wine today en de podcast Alcohol Alarm Roel stopte met drinken via het boek van Allen Carr en raadt het aan iedereen aan die wil stoppen met alcoholJess heeft het boek 'Sinds ik niet meer drink' van Evi Hanssen gelezen. Op momenten heel grappig!En Roel heeft nog een belangrijke boodschap: laten we soberschaamte de wereld uithelpen! “Als jij niet kan zijn wie je wil zijn, zijn het dan wel de juiste mensen bij wie je bent?”

When you light up a cigarette and you replace you top up the drug levels of nicotine and you get that boost back to normal again." (00:21:59)"I was terrified.

In this episode, I am joined by Duncan Bhaskaran Brown, coach, speaker, and Morris dancer, who helps people with alcohol dependency issues. He is also an author. His first book ‘Get Over Indulgence' outlines a simple system to revolutionise your relationship with food, booze, and life. His new book ‘Real Men Quit' is out in December. Duncan shares his own experiences of battles with addiction, particularly, alcohol including what made him decide to stop and methods he used to lead a more rewarding life.He explores how we live in a world full of illusions of truth, and there are many illusions of truth about alcohol if you look at the motivational triad we're basically designed as humans to maximize pleasure, minimize pain, and minimize the expenditure of energy. And if you look at the delusions that are out there around alcohol, the world will tell you that alcohol increases your pleasure. It doesn't. It will tell you it reduces your pain. It doesn't. And it will tell you the best thing to do is sit on the sofa after a hard day's work and drink a glass of wine, which is, of course, minimizing energy expenditure.He also discusses how to recognise if you or someone close to you is drinking too much, how to address the problem, and the support options available from self-help to cognitive therapy to Alcoholics Anonymous.  If you want to find out more about Duncan or to contact him directly visit his website: https://www.bhaskaranbrown.com/.You can also buy his book Get Over Indulgence, or pre-order his new book Real Men Quit on Amazon:Duncan also referenced a few self-help books: Allen Carr's Easy Way to Control Alcohol.This Naked Mind: The myth-busting cult hit for anyone who wants to cut down their alcohol consumption.

More About William Porter:"I started drinking and smoking when I was around 14 years old. In my late teens, in an attempt to stop smoking, I read Allen Carr's Easyway. I was fascinated by his pragmatic and practical approach to what was a confusing and complicated subject. Over the years my drinking steadily increased but I continued to take a common sense analysis of what it was doing to me, coupled with a technical analysis of the chemical, physiological and psychological factors at play. This continued for over a quarter of a century, during which I joined the 4th (Reserve) Battalion of the Parachute Regiment, served a 6 month tour of Iraq, qualified as a lawyer, started a career in the Financial Services sector of the City of London, got married, and had children. My drinking continued to increase until, in February 2014, I finally stopped for good. I now live with my wife and two children in West London, and continue to work as a lawyer.

He asks himself questions such as “What have I gone through? How have I been able to meet the challenges placed in front of me? Am I moving in the direction I want to in my life?”   In active addiction Kris was not able to show love to himself. He knew that the things he was doing were hurting other people and himself. He knew his wife, kids, parents, and friends all loved him, but he couldn't let the love in. He was stuck in the loop of “I'm not enough, I've screwed up too much, I deserve to feel this way.”   If you're listening, and you're there today, know that you are not alone. Many of us have been there and know how hard it is.    We don't have to be perfect RE… that's never going to happen. All we have to be is willing.

For fun Jeff enjoys mountain biking, skiing, running, and music is a big part of his life.   Growing up, alcohol was always present at celebrations hosted by his parents and their friends. It was normal for him to see people drink to excess. Jeff's first drink was when he was 16 with some friends and stolen rum. Early on he recognized that his drinking was different than other people's. On the outside, he was successful at school but was suffering from depression that alcohol helped him escape from.   After high school Jeff went to the east coast to play hockey for two years. This required a lot of discipline, so Jeff's drinking was limited to one day each week. He never moderated and usually ended up blacking out.   When Jeff turned 20, he started college where he played hockey and studied engineering. During his freshman year he got a bad concussion and struggled a lot with the side effects afterwards. He initially used drinking to self-medicate the side effects but drinking started to become the answer to everything.   After college Jeff moved back to Alaska for a job. He had his own place with two roommates who he frequently drank with late into the night. He was able to keep up with work and other activities so in spite of some health consequences, he didn't feel he had a problem.   Jeff started questioning his drinking after he caught himself drinking and driving frequently. He found Allen Carr's book and was able to stop drinking for 11 days. Since then, he has been in the cycle of quitting and then starting back with different lengths of time between drinks.   Therapy has been helpful for Jeff over the last three years and his wife has been very supportive. Connection has become very important to him.   Jeff's plan in recovery moving forward: moving forward with integrity and owning who he is.   Jeff's parting piece(s) of guidance: it's ok if you think this is hard because it is hard.

I think, I always thought, I wasn't very well slept and I didn't have the energy and I had to put it on, and it was a lot of effort. So, yeah, I think it was, it was difficult for me. I didn't want to go to work. Jaz's Introduction:Do you remember practicing dentistry when you had a cold or you weren't feeling well? Well, you must remember how difficult that was, right? Because dentistry is such a stressful thing. We're dealing with people's emotions all day long. We're dealing with intricate procedures in small places, so when you're not feeling your best. Man, that adds even more to an already stressful profession. There are various times in our careers that we will enter a rough patch. Now, before I give you examples of this, I want to give a warning for this episode that this episode does contain a lot of triggers that might upset some listeners. We tackled some very dark themes in this podcast episode. My guest, who is a dental professional, discusses episodes of self-harm, divorce, excessive alcohol intake. And these are the kind of themes that we'll be discussing under the broader umbrella of difficult, rough patches that we may face as professionals. And the reason why you made this episode today is to help anyone who's listening who may be. Going through a rough patch and of course will. It's inevitable. We will all go through rough patches. We'll all have an argument one day. We won't be feeling our best every day. I don't feel my best every day, despite what you guys might think, right? I have bad patches. Everyone has bad patches. This is life and we need the resilience to navigate through those bad patches. A lot of talk nowadays, more and more, which is brilliant about mental health, looking after your mental health. So I'm hoping this episode will help someone, will inspire someone. If it helps just one person, it is worth it. Because of the nature of this episode,

La cererea publicului, un episod despre cât de ușor este să scăpați de fumat. „Oricine poate nu numai să renunța la fumat, ci și să renunțe ușor. Teama este motivul fundamental pentru care continuăm să fumăm: teama ca viața nu va fi atât de plăcută fără țigară și teama că ne va lipsi ceva. Numai că viața este infinit mai plăcută fără țigară în multe privințe, iar surplusul de sănătate, de energie și de bogăție sunt beneficiile cele mai mici”, spune Allen Carr în cartea În sfârșit nefumător.

Did you just stop instantly? And what would be your tips for someone who is a smoker and has MS? 09:50 What aspects of the Overcoming MS Program do you like most and have found most straightforward to implement? 12:45 You're the ambassador for the Toronto area. What's the value of being the ambassador for Overcoming MS? 15:03 Could you tell us a bit about your volunteer work with MS Canada? 19:37 If you were to give advice to yourself as a newly diagnosed person, what would that advice be? Selected Key Takeaways: The Overcoming MS Program empowers and informs people to make positive lifestyle changes 03:02 “[Professor] Jelinek's voice really spoke to me like I'm a relatively intelligent adult. It was the first time I heard ideas like ‘follow this very healthy evidence-based lifestyle program, and still take your DMT with your neurologist's guidance, if that's a good fit for you.' It was also the first time I felt like I had a say in my health, in my approach to my MS.” Grieving your former self can be an important step in making healthy changes 04:02 “I discovered the concept of grieving for the loss of my former self and finding the new me. That concept really resonated with me. In a lot of ways, I actually saw it as a really positive thing. Through that I embraced dietary, exercise and mindfulness initiatives fully. Through the process of discovering who this new me is, I made a lot of decisions to cut out toxic elements from my life, whether that's food and lifestyle related, people, or even something like social media. Overcoming MS was a major factor in helping all this.” Find the method that works for you to quit smoking 07:40 “I really struggled for about two years with smoking. Whereas [with] my drinking, getting that under control was actually almost easy and immediate in comparison. It feels like I tried everything to quit before I got a handle on it, which included things like tracking every time I smoked, and then trying to reduce the number of times each day, going cold turkey, reading about how horrible smoking is for your health, the scare tactics, etc. All those things. At the end of the day, I actually found Allen Carr's ‘Easy Way to Stop Smoking.' That book really worked for me.” Want to learn more about living a full and happy life with multiple sclerosis?

A special guest this week, my friend and client Rachel Haugo! She found and read Allen Carr's book, Quit Drinking Without Willpower - The EasyWay Method and it changed her life. This book applies also to any addiction, for me it's sugar, and we talk about the book and it's effect for her new sobriety and my relationship with sugar.

Il est l'auteur de la méthode pour arrêter de fumer la plus vendue au monde, avec plus de 15 millions d'exemplaires écoulés. Allen Carr est un ancien gros fumeur reconverti en militant anti-tabac. Ironie de l'histoire, il est décédé d'un cancer du poumon à l'âge de 72 ans.

Il y a 15 millions de fumeurs et fumeuses en France. Le tabac tue 75 000 personnes par an en France vs 3000 morts par an pour les accidents de la route. Accepteriez-vous un date (1er rdv) avec une personne qui fume ? Réfléchissez bien. Rencontre avec Olivier Milleron, auteur de "Pourquoi fumer, c'est de droite" (éditions Textuel), fort de son expérience d'ancien gros fumeur, et de cardiologue hospitalier. Il est aussi militant du service public, de Droit Au Logement, Fanfare Invisible etc. Dans cet épisode, nous évoquons la stratégie de l'industrie du tabac pour rendre ce produit toxique, malodorant, addictif, omniprésent dans la culture : cinéma, séries, musique etc. Comment cette industrie a fait croire aux femmes que fumer serait une preuve d'émancipation, de liberté, de subversion. Pourquoi et comment le peuple de gauche (et certaines personnes de droite), attaché à l'écologie et aux valeurs sociales, peut continuer à cautionner une industrie si polluante, irrespectueuse de l'environnement, et faisant travailler des enfants partout dans le monde ?Je vous invite à partager cet épisode, l'émission 28 minutes (lien ci-dessous) et à recommander le livre à toutes les personnes fumeuses autour de vous, à leur entourage, et aussi aux non-fumeurs, qui n'osent demander à un fumeur/fumeuse de s'éloigner de lui/elle, ses proches etc. Un comble ! Merci et bonne écoute ! Note avant écoute : à 18'20, Olivier Milleron dit « femmes » au lieu « d'hommes ». Simple lapsus (non révélateur), on comprend le sens de la phrase et le propos était trop intéressant pour le couper. Chères auditrices, chers auditeurs, vous corrigerez mentalement automatiquement.

Pourquoi le mouvement social qui dénonce les multinationales, la malbouffe et les industries polluantes ne s'attaque-t-il pas à l'industrie du tabac ? Pourquoi le blackbloc prend-il pour cible des banques ou des fast-foods mais pas les bureaux de tabac ? Pourquoi beaucoup de militants anticapitalistes et écologistes continuent à fumer ?Car fumer et financer les grandes firmes du tabac posent un problème politique : l'industrie du tabac a toujours été à la pointe dans ce qui se fait de pire dans l'histoire du capitalisme. Raconter le succès et l'histoire de l'industrie du tabac, c'est raconter le capitalisme dans ce qu'il a de plus destructeur et cynique : l'esclavage, le travail des enfants, la propagande, la stratégie du doute, la corruption des scientifiques et des politiques, la pollution, l'exploitation des paysans des pays pauvres, les tribunaux arbitraux supra-nationaux qui mettent à mal les démocraties, etc. L'industrie du tabac est, comme le capitalisme, devenue plus puissante que les États : elle nous empoisonne et nous tue à petit feu. Fumer et donc financer consciemment une telle industrie, c'est choisir son camp." TV/Vidéos "28 minutes" sur Arte, avec Elisabeth Quin, Nadia Daam https://youtu.be/dHTafSHqGV4?t=81 "Konbini" a refusé de dire à Nicolas Duvauchelle d'éviter de fumer pendant l'interview. Ils ont refusé aussi de couper les plans où il fume au montage. Donc j'ai demandé pourquoi, et le ton est monté assez vite avec ce comédien. Dommage. https://twitter.com/Louisa_A/status/1077302569670791168 Cinéma / Séries Tous les films de Claude Sautet, ça en devient grotesque, même pour les fumeurs, aujourd'hui, ça fait "sortir" mentalement du film. https://twitter.com/search?q=CLAUDE%20SAUTET%20CIGARETTE&src=typed_query Olivier Milleron cite dans l'épisode un film avec Jean-Louis Trintignant, de Claude Sautet, mais M. Trintignant n'a jamais tourné pour Claude Sautet (dédicace aux cinéphiles, qui pourront peut-être trouver d'autres films où Trintignant fume. A priori il voulait plutôt parler du film "Les choses de la vie" avec Michel Piccoli.

Pourquoi dépensent-ils/elles l'argent qu'ils n'ont pas dans le tabac en sachant les dommages sur leur santé ?

Dans ce podcast, on entend Manue et surtout Karim fumer à chaque épisode. Personnellement, ça me gêne. Je ne vois pas ce que ça apporte à la narration, à part montrer l'addiction mais ce n'est jamais dit clairement et ça ne me convient pas Et vous, vous remarquez ça, ça vous fait quoi ? "Tu dors ?" podcast Binge Audio, écrit par Klaire fait Grrr et diffusé dans le flux Panier Piano. Réalisation et mixage : Paul Bertiaux. Production : Juliette Livartowski. https://www.binge.audio/podcast/panier-piano/panier-pianoJ'aime beaucoup le travail de Klaire fait Grrr, podcasts, spectacles, livres, vidéos, je suis, regarde, écoute tout ce qu'elle fait avec grand plaisir et même délectation. J'ai donc voulu comprendre pourquoi à chaque épisode de "Tu dors ?", on l'entend allumer une cigarette, inhaler, recracher la fumée. Là encore ces sons m'ont fait "sortir" mentalement du podcast, ont perturbé mon écoute. Klaire m'a gentiment répondu sur Twitter : https://twitter.com/Louisa_A/status/1638144026288304130Puis j'ai eu des précisions par Joël Ronez, que je peux publier, les voici : "Il y a deux raisons principales à la présence de la clope dans les épisodes :· La principale est liée aux contraintes de la mise en scène. Afin de dynamiser le podcast il a donc fallu trouver des ressorts narratifs pour éviter d'avoir une voix nue pendant 8 minutes. On retrouve donc Klaire devant son frigo, dans sa salle de bain, chassant un moustique etc. Nous avons aussi choisi de donner du relief à sa façon de parler donc parfois Klaire mange, baille, bois ou fume. La cigarette avait l'avantage de justifier la présence de Klaire à sa fenêtre ET de lui donner une intonation nouvelle. Cette suggestion a été faite par le réalisateur, et validée par l'équipe.· Une assez banale : Klaire est une ex-fumeuse (elle vape désormais), qui comme toutes les personnes fumeuses associent les phases de gamberge à la clope. Ce paradigme est effectivement en train de tomber en désuétude avec le recul de la pratique tabagique, mais pour Klaire comme pour nous, c'est encore valide.On a pas été plus loin, ce n'est pas un choix qui a fait l'objet d'un débat symbolique ou esthétique, car c'est globalement assez secondaire dans le propos. On pourrait se poser la question de notre responsabilité dans la perpétuation de la consommation tabagique, ou de l'impact sur celleux qui essaient de s'arrêter, et ton message nous y fait penser. Dans l'ensemble, nous laissons assez peu de place à la banalisation des consommation de toxiques dans nos programmes."

William is an ex-drinker and author, he joins Dan in this episode to talk about his first book, Alcohol Explained, a no-nonsense and practical explanation of alcohol; what it is, what it does and why we drink. As well as William's book, Dan and William discuss their journeys to sobriety, their experiences of drinking and anxiety as well as the mindset of someone who is alcohol dependent. CHECK OUT DAPPERS upcoming tour for 2024! https://mailchi.mp/ace6a476059d/9gd0kepamf?fbclid=PAAaaXZR8FL3fSrSgJtW0d5MGmbiACX1wz9siu18hKKMOrqDP60nPPpalRk24 KEY TAKEAWAYS  William was inspired to create his book Alcohol Explained, after reading the practical and pragmatic style in Alan Carrs book Easy way to Stop Smoking. William started drinking at 14 but it was after signing up to the Army that his drinking really accelerated. Another thing that further escalated William's drinking was the pressure he felt after having children. Drinking alcohol is culturally normalised. It's the only ‘drug' that is legal and seen as ok to take. The sedative nature of alcohol is one of the reasons people reach for it first to help self-soothe. This is often where addiction starts. Alcohol affects our brain chemistry in a whole host of ways, this is one of the reasons we experience anxiety and depression. It also impacts sleep which again, can cause many mental problems and well as physical. The positives of stopping alcohol accrue over time, it can be hard to see the longer-term benefits when you first stop, especially as it's been such a big part of your life. Williams's book explains the mindset of someone who is alcohol dependent, so it can and has been useful for those who don't have a problem to read to understand people close to them who do. BEST MOMENTS  “I think everyone drinks more as years go by but there were a couple of things that accelerated my drinking” “You focus heavily on the things that are wrong the next day” “The information is there but people, like you say, don't want to hear it” “If you feel really awful and you have a way to feel better, why is it irrational to take that?” VALUABLE RESOURCES www.alcoholexplained.com CONTACT METHOD Instagram Facebook Twitter ABOUT THE GUEST William Porter After quitting I started to realise that what allowed me to quit was the knowledge I had, so I (eventually!) wrote it all down. That was Alcohol Explained. After this I continued to ponder the subject and wrote regularly in my blog, that eventually became Alcohol Explained 2. I started drinking and smoking when I was around 14 years old. In my late teens, in an attempt to stop smoking, I read Allen Carr's Easyway. I was fascinated by his pragmatic and practical approach to what was a confusing and complicated subject. Over the years my drinking steadily increased but I continued to take a common sense analysis of what it was doing to me, coupled with a technical analysis of the chemical, physiological and psychological factors at play. This continued for over a quarter of a century, during which I joined the 4th (Reserve) Battalion of the Parachute Regiment, served a 6 month tour of Iraq, qualified as a lawyer, started a career in the Financial Services sector of the City of London, got married, and had children. My drinking continued to increase until, in February 2014, I finally stopped for good. I now live with my wife and two children in West London, and continue to work as a lawyer.

With a portfolio of businesses Daniel enjoys a busy lifestyle mixed with business and pleasure. Daniel is a father to two beautiful girls and enjoys spending quality time with them and his wife Shelley. With 2022 being a busy year, Daniel sold out his O2 stand-up show, released his British movie 'The Last Heist'  and is currently preparing for the upcoming release of his other film 'Miss The Kiss'. Daniel is a creative through and through, with a passion to strive in everything he does. Daniel is looking forward to the release of his podcast 'Menace 2 Sobriety' in 2023, his long-term position on GB News, Headliners, and the growing slate of films in the works with his production company, HYPRR.  PODCAST DESCRIPTION Daniel O'Reilly's newest venture sees the creation of his Menace 2 Sobriety podcast, a series of relaxed and open conversations with different guests and varied experiences.  After recently being diagnosed with severe ADHD and beginning his sobriety again, Daniel also set up a page on Facebook and Instagram called 'Men And Their Emotions' (M.A.T.E) an accessible, open and supportive group for MEN to post their feelings, thoughts and current life issues. Upon seeing the responses from men around the world to some of the posts on the group he was blown away and continues to be touched by the kindness and support offered by strangers. This all led to Daniel wanting to start up his own podcast and invite guests to join him in opening up about past experiences and talk about all things mental health, family & sobriety.  The podcast will see Daniel and his interesting guests' sharing their personal stories and learning experiences that they hope will help other people; whether it encourages one person to ask for help, talk to family about their struggles with getting sober/clean, or realise that they aren't alone. The Menace 2 Sobriety podcast has been created by Daniel to help people fight their own gremlins.Sobriety Podcast #wedorecover # recoveroutloud #addicitonrecovery #addiction #recoverytok #sobriety #sober #sobertiktok #sobertok #soberlife #sobercurious #soberliving: https://www.instagram.com/dappersinstagram/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Roll out the red carpet and grab a tub of Redenbacher's, because it's time to go to the movies. The Academy Awards are one of the most anticipated cinema celebrations in the world, so naturally, when the show seemed like it was losing its pizzazz, the producers need to find a way to spice things up again. And what better way to do that than to add in lavish production numbers, incongruous sketches, and appearances from some of the greatest stars of yesterday and tomorrow? Rob teaches Ray about the infamous 1989 Oscars, and its impact on the format the ceremony now follows; how Allen Carr's outrageous vision for a star-studded night of glitz and glamour became an overproduced nightmare; why the House of Mouse wasn't too pleased with Mr. Carr's opening number; and how the perception of this particular Oscars not only cratered Carr's career, but might have some redeeming qualities when viewed in the light of recent awards show flops and failures.If you like what we are doing, please support us on Patreon.TEAMRay HebelRobert W.

How do you know if what you're experiencing is menopause related?  What if you're not ready to hear that it is menopause?  What if you don't have a womb so you don't have those obvious signals that your periods have ended? That's how it was for my 3rd MenoChat guest, Lyndsey Byrne. Having had a hysterectomy with very few symptoms, Lyndsey was convinced that when hot flushes and other symptoms started with a vengeance a few years later, there must have been something other than menopause going on, especially since her blood tests told her she was definitely NOT in menopause. Going to some pretty extreme measures to manage her symptoms including wrapping herself up in plastic and exercising hard to literally 'sweat' the hot flushes away, Lyndsay finally began to accept that menopause probably was at the core and decided to take a functional medicine approach to manage her symptoms. I'm a huge believer in finding your own way through this transition.  Every one of us will approach our symptoms differently and there's no 'one size fits all'.  And that's why it's so helpful to hear different approaches, different stories and different experiences.  Story sharing is an important part of how we can figure out what the right way forward is for us as we navigate menopause.  There's no one size fits all, and often hearing other people's experiences allows us the chance to take a different perspective.   So I'd love to invite all the women listening to come and join our amazing community in Your Best Midlife over on Facebook where you'll find over 1000 women sharing experiences, cheering each other on and building each other up so we can all thrive through midlife and beyond. PS:  the book that Lyndsey referred to is called Easy Way to Control Alcohol by Allen Carr
