Ep. 7 - Lifestyle Benefits of Sobriety https://anchor.fm/soberisdope/episodes/Lifestyle-Benefits-of-Sobriety-e3vife
Would life be better without alcohol? “It’s the nagging question more and more of us are finding harder to ignore, whether we have a “problem” with alcohol or not. After all, we yoga. We green juice. We meditate. We self-care. And yet, come the end of a long work day, the start of a weekend, an awkward social situation, we drink. One glass of wine turns into two turns into a bottle. In the face of how we care for ourselves otherwise, it’s hard to avoid how alcohol really makes us feel… terrible. How different would our lives be if we stopped drinking on autopilot? If we stopped drinking altogether? Really different, it turns out. Really better. Frank, funny, and always judgment free, Sober Curious is a bold guide to choosing to live hangover-free, from Ruby Warrington, one of the leading voices of the new sobriety movement. Drawing on research, expert interviews, and personal narrative, Sober Curious is a radical take down of the myths that keep so many of us drinking. Inspiring, timely, and blame free, Sober Curious is both conversation starter and handbook—essential reading that empowers readers to transform their relationship with alcohol, so we can lead our most fulfilling lives.” ~ Good Reads Quote
“You can drink all the green juice, dodge all the gluten, and run around town in all the fancy yoga pants you like—but it means nothing if you’re not also addressing your mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being.” Ruby Warrington, Sober Curious: The Blissful Sleep, Greater Focus, Limitless Presence, and Deep Connection Awaiting Us All on the Other Side of Alcohol

May 16, 2019 Breaking the Victim Mindset and Mentality
Welcome to Episode 14 of the “Sober is Dope” Podcast, with your host POP Buchanan. Today’s episode talks about the “Victim Mindset”, and “Victim Mentality”. This episode intends to shed light on this personality trait, and give valuable tips on how to break free of this mindset. Addressing the Victim mindset is a valuable step in dealing with addiction, and recovery. I had to reverse this mindset, and take accountability for my life, circumstances, and actions. I hope you find this episode informative. We pray for anyone suffering from a victim mindset, and hope that you find light at the end of the tunnel. Our goal is to help you go from the Victim to Victor. Love you all. Sober is Dope
What is Victim mindset? Victim mentality is an acquired personality trait in which a person tends to recognize themselves as a victim of the negative actions of others, and to behave as if this were the case in the face of contrary evidence of such circumstances.
How do you get out of a victim mindset? 1. Take ownership and responsibility for your own needs and wants. ... 2. Practice saying “No.” ... 3. Stop blaming. ... 4. Become aware of the root of your sense of powerlessness. ... 5. Be kind to yourself. ... 6. Turn your focus to helping others. ... 7. Practice gratitude. ... 8. Write a list of the ways you can change the bad situation.

Thank you to “Thru the Reel Films”, for producing this amazing clip. Alcoholism is a worldwide crisis, and the truth must be exposed. Families are being broken everyday. People suffer, die, and are left shattered from this epidemic. Depression, stress, anxiety, and fear all plaque the addict. Please support and have mercy on anyone suffering from alcoholism.
