William Porter: Alcohol, sleep & nicotine


Listen Later

14/12/2021Present and Sober Podcast Episode 28
William Porter has had a profound impact on the alcohol-free world and for many, his books 'Alcohol Explained 1&2', have been an integral part of their journey to freedom. He was a natural choice for our most influential teacher series as Ellie and I have been so deeply impacted by his work. William has a wonderful way with words and an equally lovely manner, but through this, he conveys deep and important messages that society needs to wake up and hear. We talk about many things in this podcast but we take a deep dive into alcohol and sleep and talk about William's book 'Nicotine Explained' which is a must for anyone who would love to leave nicotine behind. Do not miss this one! 

What you will learn in this episode:
  • What tolerance & withdrawal really are and why they matter (12.00)
  • How 'zooming out' helps you see the truth (18.00)
  • How alcohol is affecting your sleep (first half)
  • What's really possible from an AF life (40.00) 
  • How long does it take for our sleep to 'level out' after stopping (46.00)
  • The story around nicotine / vaping / smoking (55.00)
