I Quit Wine - how to stop drinking and have a much better life

031 The Joy of Simplicity & Introducing the Freedom Formula


Listen Later

In this episode of the I Quit Wine podcast I discuss the importance of simplicity in quitting alcohol and introduce a new program for alcohol-free living.

  • Simplicity and constraint can significantly ease the decision-making process when quitting alcohol

  • I have created the "IQW Freedom Formula," a comprehensive 30-day program to help women quit drinking

  • The program offers tools for managing cravings, emotional sobriety, and addressing underlying reasons for drinking

  • I emphasize the ongoing nature of emotional sobriety and the importance of continual self-work

    • Simplicity is one of my top values, along with spaciousness and freedom

    • Constraint concept: fewer choices lead to more ease and simplicity

    • Analogy: Low-frills supermarkets (e.g., Lidl, Aldi) offer less choice, reducing decision fatigue

    • Quitting alcohol eliminates complex decision-making around drinking, reducing mental burden

    • Example: My weekend alone - only one alcohol-free beer consumed, contrasting with past behavior

      • Includes first 3 modules immediately, with others released over time

      • Features a private podcast for deeper, more honest discussions

      • Covers mindset processes, thought management, and creating desired results

        • Priced at a "ridiculous" one-time fee, with potential price increases in the future

          • Tools for managing cravings

          • Strategies for both good and challenging times

          • Information on brain chemistry, nutrition, and environmental factors

          • Naturopathic insights from Sarah's 25 years of practice

          • Guidance on achieving emotional sobriety

          • Techniques for managing the "voice" that encourages drinking

            • Distinction between stopping drinking and achieving emotional sobriety

            • Emphasis on the process nature of recovery - cannot be rushed or fast-tracked

            • Importance of continual self-work and gradual improvement

            • Strategies for managing the ego or "voice" that undermines sobriety efforts
