It's Not About the Alcohol

EP145 How to resist the urge to keep drinking (while you're drinking)


Listen Later

How often do you decide to have a single drink to take the edge off and end up getting completely wasted?

 

It sounds like a good idea because you’re craving an escape and feel like you deserve to cut yourself some slack! But then you wake up to reality…feeling anxious, foggy, behind the ball and wondering why you can’t stop once you start.

 

Today I’m sharing my personal experience with a recent urge to over-do it that felt overwhelming and seductive. I used a simple mindset shift to reconnect with the felt-sensations of relaxation and control. It only took a few minutes and it wasn’t even hard.

 

You’ll walk away from this episode with a step-by-step process for how to manage the impulse to keep drinking (while you’re drinking) without feeling like you’re missing out on fun.

 

If you’re ready to get emotionally sober (side effects include an 80 percent reduction in drinking),  click here to BOOK A DISCOVERY CALL WITH COLLEEN. You'll walk away from our call with a clear understanding of how to get the skills you need to transform your life.
