  • This week on the podcast I'm talking about the four reasons that you're not making progress on changing your drinking habits...yet.
    Listen in to hear why your mindset and believing that you're capable of change is the key. There is disbelief throughout your mindset that shows up in different ways.
    You may need to 1) Decide and commit to change.
    2) Get consistent with your doable drink plans.
    3) Take responsibility for drinking less.
    4) Make sure you're giving yourself credit for the change that is happening!

    Low risk drinking guidelines from the NIAAA:

    Healthy men under 65:

    No more than 4 drinks in one day and no more than 14 drinks per week.

    Healthy women (all ages) and healthy men 65 and older:
    No more than 3 drinks in one day and no more than 7 drinks per week.

    One drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor. So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink.

    Abstinence from alcohol
    Abstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past.

    Benefits of “low-risk” drinking
    Following these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more. It also reduces the risk of depression, social problems, and difficulties at school or work.

  • This week on the podcast I'm joined again by Debbie Hampton. After decades of depression, a serious attempt to end her life, and a resulting brain injury, Debbie Hampton not only survived, but went on to thrive by discovering the super power we all have to better our brains and lives. Neuroplasticity is the superpower we all are born with and possess until the day we die. On www.thebestbrainpossible.com Debbie shares information about the tools she used to heal herself and her life physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. Today we're talking about her new book: How to Use Mindfulness as a Mental Health Tool: To Beat Depression & Anxiety, and Change Your Brain

  • This week on the podcast I'm talking to Dr. Brooke Scheller all about her book How to Eat to Change How You Drink.

    Dr. Brooke Scheller, Doctor of Clinical Nutrition, stands at the forefront of a transformative movement in health and wellness. As the esteemed founder of Functional Sobriety and the author of "How to Eat to Change How You Drink," Dr. Scheller has dedicated her career to revolutionizing the approach to alcohol recovery and holistic well-being.

    Inspired by her journey to sobriety in 2021, Dr. Scheller embarked on a mission to empower others to reclaim their lives through nutrition and functional medicine. Drawing upon her extensive expertise, she crafted an innovative approach that not only liberates individuals from the grips of alcohol but also fosters profound improvements in brain health, mood regulation, energy levels, focus, gut health, and hormone balance.

    You can learn more about Brooke here.

  • This week on the podcast I'm bringing awareness to some of the "traps" that keep us from taking ACTION on changing our drinking habits.
    1) Waiting for the perfect time...or to hit rock bottom.
    2) Making mistakes and letting them mean we're not capable of change
    3) Looking too far into the future and not focusing on the next 24 hours.

  • This week on the podcast, I'm talking with Celeste Yvonne, all about her book: It's Not About the Wine.

    "In this refreshing, honest take on some of the most pressing concerns for twenty-first-century parents, Yvonne mixes research, cultural references, her own story, and engaging interviews with other moms who sought refuge in wine and found a way out. Drinking to blur the tumultuous days of parenting is a catch-22: it actually keeps us from being present during this precious time. It's Not about the Wine pulls back the veil on what's really plaguing mothers, offers tangible tips for how to lighten your mental load, and paves a path forward for all of us who want to survive and thrive during these weary and wonderful years."

  • This week on the show I'm thrilled to share with you my conversation with Dr. Jill Bolte-Taylor.

    Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor is a Harvard-trained and published neuroanatomist whose research specialized in understanding how our brain creates our perception of reality. As irony would have it, in 1996 at the age of 37, Dr. Jill experienced a severe hemorrhage in the left hemisphere of her brain. On the afternoon of this rare form of stroke (AVM), she could not walk, talk, read, write, or recall any of her life. It took eight years for Dr. Jill to completely rebuild her brain to recover all physical, emotional, and thinking abilities.

    Healthy women (all ages) and healthy men 65 and older:
    No more than 3 drinks in one day and no more than 7 drinks per week.

    One drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor. So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink.

    Abstinence from alcohol
    Abstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past.

    Benefits of “low-risk” drinking
    Following these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more. It also reduces the risk of depression, social problems, and difficulties at school or work.

    If you' are unsure about whether or not you have alcohol use disorder, please visit the NIAAA for more information.

  • Here's the 4th in our STILL DRYUARY mini-series and today I'm talking all about how we approach off-plan drinking.
    This is the #1 skill you should build if you're interested in creating sustainable change beyond Dry January.
    We focus on compassion and curiosity to observe our own thinking and understand what's driving our desire to drink off-plan.
