If the reason you want to drink less is because you're afraid of future health problems, you'll likely find it hard to change your habits. Thinking you “should be” drinking less is what makes alcohol use disorder a thinking problem, not a drinking problem. Because if it's true that you “should be” drinking less, and yet you're still drinking too much, then something must be wrong. And the more you look for evidence that something is wrong, the more you find, the worse you feel and the harder it gets to keep trying. In this episode, I'll break down the exact process I teach my clients when they're not seeing measurable improvements in how much or how often they drink. You'll walk away with a clear understanding as to why it is so important to respond to your own drinking habits with self-encouragement and curiosity instead of disappointment and frustration. Because the only way to stop repeating your drinking mistakes is to start learning from them. —Click here to BOOK A DISCOVERY CALL if you're ready to fully commit to your personal growth and do the work to get emotionally sober.

Have you noticed that the more you try to control your drinking, the harder it feels to control? It's assumed that the only way to prevent over-drinking is no-drinking. If you can't stop once you start, don't start. But science shows that people who identify as “sober alcoholics” are much more likely to relapse into binge drinking. Because they identify as diseased or damaged all-or-nothing people. And sobriety is the “nothing” in the all-or-nothing cycle. Alcohol use disorder isn't a drinking problem, it's a thinking problem. Which makes it a mental health issue. The story you're telling yourself about your relationship with alcohol doesn't make any sense. Somehow, drinking has become both the problem and the solution. In this episode, I'll give you four scientific reasons why abstinence is not the cure for alcohol use disorder. And explain why emotional sobriety is the path to freedom. Because if you felt more powerful and at ease in your life, you would naturally drink like someone who feels that way. —Click here to BOOK A DISCOVERY CALL if you're ready to fully commit to your personal growth and do the work to get emotionally sober.

Have you been searching for a medical explanation as to why you suffer with chronic pain and depression? We're taught to view pain, inflammation, and a lack of energy as dysfunctional biological processes. And so we see all the doctors, try all the medications and wonder what we've done to deserve this. Occasionally we find temporary relief, but over time, it's obvious we're on a downhill trajectory. Searching for answers is exhausting. Dr. Lynn Carey is a doctor of chiropractic who suffered with illness and pain for many years. When she finally connected her physical symptoms with mental and emotional stress, her whole life changed.

Mama,Are you ready for an unpopular opinion from someone in the health and weight loss industry? I don't believe that we need to skip events, parties, or traditions in the name of being healthy. Food plays a huge role in our culture and missing out on the holiday treats and drinks doesn't sound like something I want to do - even when I want to lose weight. Instead of telling myself that I can't go to a holiday party because I might be tempted to eat something “bad;” I've learned how to trust myself so I can enjoy the holidays without overeating or overdrinking.Every year, my girlfriends and I have a huge Christmas party. We get together and spend a few days partying and catching up. It's a ton of fun, but it also usually involves eating and drinking like we're in college again.When I started my weight loss journey, I didn't want to give up these parties. This meant I either had to say no to eating and drinking with my friends because it wasn't part of my diet, or I would toss everything out the window and stuff my face. I was either all in or all out.And what usually happened was that I would say I was only going to be good and have one drink or one bite of the chocolate cake someone brought, and then without realizing it, I'd downed 4 Moscow mules and eaten three pieces of cake.The next morning when I realized what I'd done, I'd beat myself up for falling off the wagon. But then I'd just keep doing it. I'd eat whatever I wanted and feel guilty later. That cycle would last for a few months until I was ready to diet again.Having that all-in or all-out mindset wasn't working for me. It didn't matter if I was “good” and stuck to my diet because I'd be miserable missing out on the fun my friends were having. And if I was “bad” and enjoyed myself I was miserable because I felt guilty and regretted going overboard. I was so tired of living a life that made me feel bad all the time!When I started macro tracking, there weren't food lists of “good foods” vs “bad foods.” Instead, I learned how to balance healthy food with fun food. I didn't have to choose one over the other, I could have both!Now I can go to my annual holiday party and I just have one drink - because I know that I can and I don't feel like I have to go crazy! I can have one piece of cake knowing it's not forbidden. I don't have to feel guilty about anything afterward! I can enjoy the experiences with my friends, I can enjoy eating good food and go home without an ounce of guilt, shame or regret.Mama, I don't want you skipping out on holiday meals or traditions because you're worried about gaining weight! That's no way to live.Instead, I want to teach you how to enjoy the holidays while still being able to focus on your health goals.Eat well before a holiday partyNot overeating at a holiday party doesn't start at the party when you fill up your plate. It starts when you wake up that morning. The best thing you can do to not overeat at a party is to eat well before the party.Most of our favorite holiday foods are higher in fats and carbs, both of which are important parts of a balanced diet, but it puts us out of balance with the three macronutrients: protein, fat and carbs.Because we know that one meal is going to be off-balance, I encourage my clients to eat more protein earlier in the day.Protein is the slowest burning macronutrient, which means that protein will keep you full for longer. By eating high-protein foods throughout the day, you'll feel fuller and you'll be less inclined to stuff yourself at a party!One of the best ways to set yourself up for success is to eat a high-protein breakfast. Not only will a high-protein breakfast keep you fuller throughout the day, but when you start your day with protein it influences the choices you make for the whole day!A few of my favorite high-protein foods are:Eggs - especially egg whites!Cottage cheeseYogurtTofu (makes a delicious scramble!)Turkey bacon or sausage (having a low-fat breakfast meat will leave you more space for holiday treats later in the day)Deli meatsChickenBeans and lentilsYou can still eat carbs and fat before a party but try to choose whole foods over processed foods. Whole foods are going to be lower in calories, and higher in nutrients like fiber so that you will still feel good even if you indulge in treats at the party.Decide ahead of time how much you'll drinkThe absolute best way to avoid overdrinking at a party is to have a game plan going in!Most of the time we don't overdrink on purpose. We always say that we're going to “be good” but we don't define what good is. Then the drinks start pouring and we end up drinking more than we wanted to.It's a slippery slope. This is why I teach my Macros Made Easy Mamas to decide ahead of time how much they're going to drink.Ultimately, I don't care how much they drink (or how much you drink) but you need to learn the skill of staying committed to yourself. If you say you're going to have five drinks, that's cool! Just stop after five. If you only have to have one drink, that's cool too. It's up to you.But no matter what you choose, you need to stick to that. Not because it will guarantee you don't gain weight, but because when you set a limit for yourself and then stick to it you build trust in yourself.When you get to the point where you only want to have one drink, and your friends are begging you to drink more, you will have taught yourself that you can be trusted to do what you want - not what everyone else wants.Despite being adults, peer pressure is still a real thing - especially when it comes to drinking!If you want to learn more about how drinking affects your health so that you can make the best decision for yourself, check out this blog about alcohol!Make smart food choices at the partyIt's easy to eat well and make a plan for drinking at a party, but it's another thing to make good choices when you're at the party surrounded by temptation.Remember, it's perfectly OK to enjoy yourself at a party. Don't let food be your entire focus or you'll miss out on so much!My goal for all of my clients is for them to learn to eat intuitively, but before you can get to that point you have to relearn how to listen to your body and use its cues to start or stop eating.Most of us ignore our hunger or full cues until we reach the extremes. As mamas, we tend to cruise past hungry, ignore the hangry signs and are teetering on the edge of starving before we think about food.Then we eat, and eat, and eat. We don't stop when we feel content. We don't stop when we feel full, We only stop when we can't even think about putting another bite in our mouths.This starving-to-stuffed cycle can get us into trouble when we're eating out, or at a party, because we don't recognize the difference between content and overly full. We think we are supposed to feel crazy stuffed to be happy.In reality, if we ate when we first started to feel hungry and stopped when we felt content, it would help us avoid gaining weight any time we ate outside of our normal boundaries.Before you attend your holiday parties, think about what cues your body gives you when you're hungry and full. Think about what the two extremes look like. Then choose what cues tell you it's time to eat and when it's time to stop.While you're at your holiday party, pay attention to your body. When you have the thought, “Man, I'm getting hungry” start eating! Because you aren't starving, you're less likely to grab too much food. Then when you start to feel content - maybe you have the thought, “That was so good, I enjoyed my meal.” - stop eating.If there's still food on your plate when you start to feel full, that's ok! You can cover it with a napkin, pass it to your spouse to eat off of, or get up and throw it away.If alarm bells just went off in your head when I said throw it away, I want you to listen up! It's OK to throw food away! It's OK not to finish every morsel of food on your plate. I need you to realize that you don't have to be a human garbage disposal just to avoid being impolite or because you think it's wasteful.Your health is more important than the last few bites on your plate. You aren't going to feed a hungry kid in Africa by stuffing yourself. You are the one who has to suffer the consequences of overeating. Be kind to your body and don't feel guilty for putting your needs and your health before anything else.If you follow these tips, I know you'll be able to attend holiday parties without overeating or overdrinking. And as a bonus, you'll learn how to be more present during the holidays. It won't be so focused on what you can or can't eat. It will be about spending time with friends and family and making memories.And Mama, that's what life's really about. I've learned that I want to focus on making smart health decisions not because I want to look good in a bikini, but because I want to be around to make memories with my family for as long as I can.If you want more support with your health goals during the holiday season, let's chat!

What's the first thought in your head when you wake up and realize you “did it again?” Beating yourself up and thinking that you're back at “square one” only amplifies the hangover. And you probably think that's exactly what needs to happen. Because you believe in punishment. Feeling bad is what motivates you to get your sh!t together. And the problem is, that can work. For a while. You tuck your tail between your legs and wait for the anxiety to pass. But shame-based motivation is a short-term solution. The better you do, the better you feel. And when your confidence returns, your commitment to the plan recedes. Because if failure must be punished, then success deserves a reward. Welcome back to Square One. What the hell is wrong with you and why can't you just stick to the plan? Would you like to hear Plan B? In this episode, discover: The mistakes you're making that perpetuate the cycle of self-sabotage. The counterintuitive strategy for loving yourself through a hangover How to avoid waking up at Square One, even when you over-drink PLEASE NOTE: On November 13, the title of this podcast will change to It's Not About the Alcohol.

A few years ago, I took a 90-day break from alcohol that changed my life. You know what was the hardest part? The social events!I was dating, so that felt super terrifying and vulnerable.I traveled and stayed with family for a few days, which is always kind of stressful. (Not because they aren't lovely, but because my nervous system gets really jangled when I don't have my own space.)I usually meet my friend at the same brewery to catch up, and we kept that tradition all through my break. I didn't have a work trip or a wedding during that time. But if I did, it would have felt like the final exam. The PhD defense.So if you're taking a break from drinking (or cutting back or quitting), this episode is for you!(In fact, you can use it for any behavioral change you're making that really challenges your brain.)In this episode, I'm going to walk you through some tips to prepare you ahead of time for drinky social events where you plan to be dry.And then I'll actually lead you through a self-hypnosis template you can use to practice being different in that situation (and also anticipate how awesome it's going to feel after).Enjoy!New, Flexible Coaching PackagesFor plans and pricing, or to schedule a discovery call, click here.

Hypnotherapist Rita Black is returning to the show to address the difficult issue many of us encounter when we take a break from drinking--Night Time Eating! Night-time eating is more than an urge…it's a pattern. Which is why trying to use discipline to “not eat” or “eat less” doesn't work. Your subconscious mind has an agenda that overrides willpower. Rita explains the patterns of “three” and how our brain will agitate us until we complete the cycle. And the only way to regain control is to create a new pattern that aligns with a stronger and more powerful self image. Instead of seeing yourself as someone who “struggles with overeating,” you must become a person who “prefers to fast from after dinner until breakfast.” Because the easiest way to break an unwanted habit is to replace it with a desired IDENTITY. Register here to learn how to break through the weight struggle cycle so you can lose weight consistently and permanently with Rita's Shift Weight Mastery Process on September 19th @ 9am or 5 pm PST.

If you're ready to take a break from alcohol OR you're feeling trapped in lifelong sobriety because you identify as a recovering alcoholic, get the exact steps you'll need to take to reclaim control over your life. Because you don't have to live by other people's rules. Pursing happiness instead of sobriety is the only way to feel passionate, purposeful and powerful again.

The phrase “sober curious” is picking up steam in beverage alcohol circles—perhaps most notably in the craft beer industry. More non-alcoholic products, sober events, and shared conversations regarding our collective consumption habits are taking place than ever before, but a stigma remains. If you're not drinking, why are you even in a beer space to begin with? That's exactly what today's conversation is about. I'm joined by writers Jerard Fagerberg and Mark LaFaro to discuss Jerard's sober-curious column “Let Go or Get Dragged” and Mark's recent piece on Good Beer Hunting titled “Tapped Out — The Problematic Culture of Overdrinking in the Alcoholic Beverage Industry.” Neither writer shies away from sharing personal, sometimes very raw experiences with alcohol consumption, in an attempt to destigmatize moderation and sobriety as well as provide resources for those interested in cutting back. This episode is part of a series exploring both personal and cultural shifts regarding alcohol, where we discuss the evolving vocabulary around sobriety—or steps towards it—and unpack the core reasons why people congregate around beer in the first place. As someone who still works behind the bar, Mark reveals some ugly truths about what breweries expect from consumers (spoiler alert: It's not always in the individuals' best interest), as well as where they both find support in a sometimes judgemental landscape. You never have to explain why you're not drinking, or even drinking less, but whether you're curious about minimizing or eliminating alcohol from your diet, listening to those who have been through it before is a great foundation on where you can begin.
How does slick wine marketing encourage us to drink too much? Has anything really changed in the wine industry in the last ten years since the incidents in the book took place? How is sexism still embedded in wine tasting notes today? What would I advise young women and men entering the wine business today? I'll be sharing those stories and more in this special episode of my podcast. My new memoir Wine Witch on Fire: Rising from the Ashes of Divorce, Defamation, and Drinking Too Much just launched yesterday, May 9th in Canada. It will launch in the US and around the world June 6th, and it's also available for pre-order now. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks Highlights Why was it particularly difficult to face the challenges of divorce and defamation as the caregiver of a teenage son and an elderly mother? While this book deals with serious issues, there's lots of humour. How do you strike a balance between the two? Do you approach things differently now than before? Has anything really changed in the wine industry since that time? What would you say to young women and men who want to enter the wine business? What does that world without misogyny or sexism look like? Can you share an example of how sexism is embedded in wine tasting notes? What's the difference between sexist, sexy, and sensual writing? In the book, your partner calls you “princess,” and another writer calls you “sweetheart.” Are you bothered by these? Throughout your memoir, you describe the slick marketing that encourages women to drink too much. Can you elaborate on this? Why include stories of women behind wine labels? You're a supertaster. What does that mean? If you could be a wine, which one would it be? What was your most interesting wine experience? Which wines do you enjoy drinking on your own time these days? What does terroir mean to you? What is a guilty pleasure when it comes to pairing wine and food? What's in your wine guide for book clubs, wine groups and individual readers, and where can we get it? How can we find out more about the $397 Bonus Bundle with pre-orders and where to buy the book? Are there any book launch events coming up?

This week, we explore how to stop overdrinking with special guest Sherry Price. Sherry helps women moderate their drinking and as someone who identifies as an addict, I was a bit skeptical of her work. However, after our conversation, I have new insight into her expertise and her thoughts on alcohol and addiction. We also discussed the stigma around addiction, different paths to recovery, and the importance of having the right support network during your journey. Sherry is a certified life coach, pharmacist, and creator of the Drink Less Lifestyle podcast and EpicYOU program. Using empowerment-based tools, she helps women to stop overdrinking, lose weight, improve relationships, and live as their most epic self. Some of the topics we discussed include: Drinking for the experience versus self-medication (12:09) The joy of saying, “No.” (14:28) Overdrinking: what it is and some reasons women may do it (18:24) We explore the question, “Is alcoholism a disease or not?” (29:01) Why “you can't punish addiction out of somebody.” (32:49) The importance of figuring out the “why” for your overdrinking or addiction (34:40) http://andreaowen.com/506

Low risk drinking guidelines from the NIAAA: Healthy men under 65: No more than 4 drinks in one day and no more than 14 drinks per week. Healthy women (all ages) and healthy men 65 and older: No more than 3 drinks in one day and no more than 7 drinks per week. One drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor. So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink. Abstinence from alcohol Abstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past. Benefits of “low-risk” drinking Following these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more. It also reduces the risk of depression, social problems, and difficulties at school or work. If you' are unsure about whether or not you have alcohol use disorder, please visit the NIAAA for more information.
