If you’ve ever told yourself, “A glass of wine helps me sleep,” this episode is going to change the way you think about rest forever.

In this week’s episode of the Sober Vibes Podcast, I unpack the truth about alcohol’s effect on your sleep cycle and why even small amounts of alcohol can destroy the rest your body needs to recover truly.

I dive into how alcohol disrupts REM sleep, spikes stress hormones, and leaves you waking up anxious, wired, and exhausted. Whether you’re trying to stop drinking wine, dealing with grey area drinking, or learning how to relax without alcohol, this conversation will help you finally understand why you’re so tired and what to do about it.

What You Will Learn In This Episode:

  • The connection between alcohol and stress, and why it fuels anxiety
  •  Why do you wake up at 3 a.m. and can’t fall back asleep
  •  How alcohol interferes with hormones like cortisol, estrogen, and melatonin
  •  What happens to your sleep when you quit drinking
  •  Tools to rebuild real rest and support your nervous system
  • The role of sobriety coaching and the sober community in recovery and better sleep
  •  How to regulate your body and mind through natural calming routines

If you’ve been feeling exhausted, anxious, or mentally foggy even after quitting drinking, this episode will help you connect the dots. Rest is recovery, and it’s time to get yours back.
