What comes to mind when we say, "self-compassion is the cure for over-drinking?" Wait.... what???  Isn't self-compassion just some kinda woo woo dog-whistle for letting ourselves off the hook and encouraging bad behaviour?  Won't our problems just get worse?  Science has something to say about this, and it may surprise you.

Let's say those monster-brained scientists who study this kind of thing are correct.  How can someone who is so down on themselves find self-compassion?  You may even feel tense just thinking about it.

Listen in to discover why science says self-compassion is the ultimate weapon for habit change and how even the lowest of us can tap into it.  We'll leave you with a fresh perspective, hope, and the tools you need to find freedom from alcohol.

How about we use this month to have a ‘check in with our relationship with alcohol’? No expectations and no asking you to suddenly ‘deny’ yourselves alcohol with no explanation as to what its doing in our lives in the first place! Non, non, non, we see it as a month to consider what connections our brains have made with drinking, why we drink and what makes it so darned difficult to stop!
 

We will talk compassion, grace, curiosity, data points and share a fantastic journaling exercise to make this a learning experience you’ll never forget. 

Ready? Ok, let’s get this January podcast series started!!
