Relapse and Recovery: Lyndal Hunt's Journey to Lasting Sobriety

For me, this is how you make me feel and be really honest. You know, since this last relapse, it's just about putting putting a lot of wellness into my life and I just, you know, my life is only ever going to be what I make of it.
Picture this: you've been sober for five and a half months, feeling on top of the world, only to find yourself slipping back into old habits. In this episode of 'How I Quit Alcohol', host Danni Carr sits down with Lyndal Hunt to talk about the rollercoaster of relapse and the valuable lessons it brings. Lyndal, who knows the struggle all too well, opens up about her journey of regaining confidence and then facing the challenge of relapse.
She candidly shares how her 'alcoholic brain' tricked her into thinking it wasn't that bad, leading her to fall off the wagon. But more importantly, she talks about the steps she took to change her mindset and rebuild her self-belief to stay sober. This conversation isn't just about the pitfalls; it's about the resilience and strategies needed to prevent relapse. Lyndal emphasizes the importance of looking after all aspects of oneself—mind, body, and soul—to truly get well and stay well.
She discusses treating her mind like a child that needs nurturing and how focusing on general wellbeing helped her create a life filled with wellness. If you're looking for real talk on how to prevent relapse and redefine your relationship with alcohol, this episode offers a treasure trove of insights. It's a raw, honest look at the ups and downs of sobriety, packed with practical advice and heartfelt stories.
