Stop Drinking and Start Living- The Feminine Way

Ep. #217 Regret Free Mornings


Listen Later

You are sick of waking up with regret. 

You want to feel good about yourself. 
You want the day to feel like an adventure, not a dull half existence. 

There is a spiral of shame and judgment for not being able to quit drinking, for drinking , for not being able to control it. The list goes on. 

So you start NEW things, add new routines, more actions and information to your already stressful mind.

How many unopened courses are in your inbox? (we've all been there)

But you take your overwhelmed mind with you and quit those too.  Your resentful of your husband who can have one and leave it, so you eat cookies and that makes you feel like shit, so why not have a drink and say screw it. 

The cycle begins again. 

Welcome shift #3 from shame and judgement me move to compassion. 
Be kind to yourself no matter what. Offer yourself compassion for being human and crushing it everyday. 

You must learn to you meet the needs of emotions so you don’t have to rely on alcohol to do that for you. 

Happy? drink. Sad? drink. Depressed, frustrated, aroused?...All emotions lead to drinking,  but what it’s really doing is over riding those emotions, not supporting them. 
It's invalidating and numbing them. 

You can start small. Use the words you would to someone you love. Start with something neutral.  Humans have emotions. Emotions create sensations in the body. This is normal. 

I can help you uncover the exact place that will trip you up every time that you think you can't handle and show you just how powerful you truly are. 

You need a plan and to know what words to say and then keep practicing.
