Stop Drinking and Start Living- The Feminine Way

Ep. #79 Why Can't I Drink Like Everyone Else?


Listen Later

Why can some people can drink without problems?
Because they don't try to say no!
Most people have a made up story in their minds about how: she can just have one glass of wine and it's so easy. 

NO!!!

First, Why does this matter?

Second:  I just want to be able to have a little glass of wine.

Why?

There’s nothing wrong with having a glass of wine, or having five.

It also doesn’t change or make your life better in anyway.
That's not REALLY what you or the habit wants.
Part of you doesn't want it to be true that alcohol is habit forming. 
Sorry to break it to you, there is no way around it.
And second, the habit has no interest in a glass of wine once a week. 

The habit of alcohol fractures your inner resilience.

What your perception is and what the reality is.

Frequency and Duration, Circumstance , Adversity and Internal resources CAN play a role in persons journey away from the habit. 
But not always.

Your brain developed a pattern, a totally normal one that says:

When you experience this emotion, for better or worse, the answer is to drink. 

You will learn:
*Why other people’s drinking is none of your business.

*Why that story is holding you back from living your best life.

*The impact other peoples actions are  having in other areas of your life.

*The solution isn't simply, no alcohol, it's more of YOU.

*The role of emotional maturity.

*How labels limit.
