Are you pouring a drink to find a moment of peace, only to wake up feeling worse? Head Coach Victoria English explains the neuroscience behind why your brain seeks alcohol for "relief" from stress, pressure, and overstimulation.
She details how alcohol's initial effect of boosting calming neurotransmitters and suppressing excitatory ones creates a false sense of peace. However, this temporary fix leaves your brain in chaos, with a rebound of stress hormones and a crash in dopamine, leading to increased anxiety and shame.
You'll learn why you're not choosing alcohol, but rather the illusion of relief it provides, and how you can reclaim your peace by building new, empowering paths.
