Podcasts about quit drinking

Suitcase closed, passport ready, and freedom buzzes in your chest. Then the old voice whispers: holidays demand cocktails. Airlines pour fizz at take-off, resorts pump two-for-one mojitos by noon, relatives push local wine at dinner. If you associate travel with endless rounds, sobriety can look fragile. Yet swaps and scripts work only when the bigger engine, mindset, runs smoothly. Let us fine-tune that engine so your next trip leaves you clear-eyed and unstoppable.https://www.stopdrinkingexpert.com/stay-sober-on-vacation/Imagine, no more hangovers!

Picture this: you pour a glass to “take the edge off,” promising yourself it's only lubrication for the soul. Instead, each sip thickens an invisible wall between you and the feelings you most want to meet. By the time the bottle yawns empty, that wall feels ten bricks higher, but the pain still pulses on the other side. Millions repeat this nightly ritual, not realising they are anaesthetising the very radar they need for authentic joy, intuition, and resilience. In the next few pages we'll unpack how alcohol sabotages emotional flow, clouds spiritual perception, and—crucially—how people everywhere are smashing through the block to find something altogether numinous on the other side.Ready to quit drinking? Imagine, no more hangovers!

Quick question: how many brain cells would you happily trade for a glass of Sauvignon Blanc? Most of us would answer “none,” yet that is the quiet swap that takes place each time we drink. For decades, alcohol marketing painted scenes of witty toasts and genius writers crafting best-sellers with a tumbler by the keyboard. Reality tells a duller truth: MRI scanners now show measurable shrinkage of the brain in people who average one drink a day. Cognitive tests confirm slower learning and patchy recall.Ready to quit drinking? Imagine, no more hangovers!

Alcohol wasn't present in Courtney's childhood, so when she was offered champagne by friends at a holiday when she was fifteen, she had no knowledge of how it would affect her. She only knew that it was ‘forbidden', and what 15 year old wouldn't want to try a forbidden thing? The cozy sense of warmth that overcame her was so appealing. After that day, alcohol easily slipped into her life.  Courtney experienced a series of red flags around her drinking through the years, but she ignored them. She clearly didn't have a ‘problem', so there was no reason to consider her relationship with alcohol too closely. Yet, as she became a mother, alcohol began to take up more and more space in her brain, and her relationship with it became more and more uncomfortable.  An unexpected third pregnancy that resulted in a miscarriage served as a wakeup call. She was given an opportunity to truly feel her emotions around alcohol, and to create new habits that required sobriety to enjoy. It felt so good, and she became fiercely protective of these new life choices. At that point, she began moderating and paying close attention to how alcohol made her feel until one day at a brewery it became completely clear: Alcohol was not serving her. In fact, alcohol was taking joy from her life. She was done.  Courtney has recently reached 100 days of sobriety!  Are you looking for community in sobriety?

You wake up in a cold sweat, heart pounding, because in your dreams, you were back at it — chugging a pint as though it were the last one on Earth. What the hell's going on?

Hey Friend, in case youre new here, my name is Arlina and Ill be your host. Today youll hear from my friends Lane Kennedy andamp; Tamar Medford, as we discuss their new book Sobriety for Dummies. And in case you had the same reaction to the book title as I did, dont worry, I totally asked them about it. But before we jump in& I just wanted to share something that comes up for a lot of us in recovery, which is seeking external validation andamp; people pleasing. These are actually very common coping mechanisms that develop in childhood. When were growing up, we are dependent on the adults in our lives to take care of our physical and emotional needs. So if you grew up in a home where your needs were not met or the adults were dysfunctional, then we learn to deny our own needs in ways that appease our parents to get our needs met. This can lead to over achieving behaviors, people pleasing, codependency, and a heavy reliance on external validation. What this means is that we have a tough time recognizing and validating our own needs, wants and feelings. I actually wrote an article sharing my experience of how I am healing my own need for validation with some practical tips on how to let go of old destructive habits that I think youll enjoy. You can find the article at odaatchat.com. And in the spirit of cultivating a sense of self-love, follow me on IG for a free 30 day self-love challenge. Just do a search on Arlina Allen. So without further delay, please enjoy this episode with Lane and Tamar. =J

Let's be honest, shall we? Changing anything about ourselves—whether it's dropping a few pounds, kicking a bad habit, or finally learning to play the guitar instead of just air-jamming to Led Zeppelin—is a bit like trying to herd cats while riding a unicycle and juggling flaming torches. It's bloody hard. But when it comes to quitting drinking, the stakes are higher, the demons are louder, and the excuses are as plentiful as cheap lager at a student union bar. So, how do you get the mindset to change anything, especially something as sneaky and seductive as booze?

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.

Many of us have heard the saying, "buy the ticket, take the ride," which essentially means that once you commit to something, you must fully engage with the experience to gain its full benefits. This philosophy couldn't be more relevant when it comes to quitting drinking. Simply purchasing a course on how to stop drinking alcohol isn't enough; you need to actively participate and apply what you learn to see real change in your life.Ready to quit drinking? Imagine, no more hangovers!

As a busy mom of three and the founder of Chaos N' Cookies, keeping moms from crumbling is my main objective.

The Family Playbook, or standard operating procedure, is the tool every mama needs to save time and stress-less when chaos ensues at home. For new biz owners, I also help simplify systems on social media and other business platforms to automate processes to get their business up and running quickly and efficiently with how-tos and hands-on coaching.

Recent research has sparked a significant conversation about the health implications of alcohol consumption. A comprehensive study featured in The Lancet, one of the world's leading medical journals, has concluded that there is no safe level of alcohol use. This study, which analyzed data from 195 countries, challenges the long-standing belief that moderate alcohol consumption could be beneficial or at least harmless. Instead, it underscores that any amount of alcohol increases the risk of health problems, including a range of diseases from cancer to liver issues. This finding is a wake-up call for anyone who has considered alcohol consumption as part of a healthy lifestyle.Ready to quit drinking? Imagine, no more hangovers!

Alcohol consumption is often celebrated in our society, whether at social gatherings, celebrations, or even as a way to unwind after a long day. However, this widespread acceptance sometimes masks the less glamorous side of drinking: the irrational and often embarrassing behaviors it can induce. Here at Stop Drinking Expert, we delve into why alcohol makes people act in ways they might later regret, and share stories of individuals who've embraced sobriety for a better life.Ready to quit drinking? Imagine, no more hangovers!

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. Side effects include an 80 percent reduction in drinking. You'll walk away from our call with a clear understanding of how to get the skills you need to transform your life.   —NEW!

Alcohol has long been a part of human culture, enjoyed in moderation by many. However, beneath its social veneer lies a creeping menace that claims lives with a chilling regularity. A recent investigation into why we aren't taking alcohol addiction more seriously, despite rising death rates, sheds light on this silent killer. Not only does alcohol directly lead to numerous health issues, but it also disrupts lives, families, and communities.Ready to quit drinking? Imagine, no more hangovers!
