”But Jesus Drank Wine” & Other Stories That Kept Us Stuck

Ep. 8 How can I know I want nothing to do with alcohol but still drink?

47 min • 23 januari 2023

Join Meade and Christy for another rich conversation, another “meat and potatoes” episode, diving into the importance of understanding how our minds work and why it’s important for doing this work that we “get to do.” Listen in to discover why this work is about alcohol–and not alcohol– all at the same time and why changing our thinking is how we change our drinking. 

 

They’ll answer questions like: What is a stress response cycle (and why heading to the grocery when we’re hangry never turns out the way we intended). And what’s that got to do with drinking? Why can we “know” what to do in an alcohol urge and yet not have access to those tools that would help us in those moments? And they’ll explore what to try instead. They also explore why celebrating where you are–wherever that is–on your journey is important to creating new neural pathways and new habits. And don’t miss today’s TINA (TIny New Action) as a way for continuing the forward movement on this amazing journey!
