Mastering Your Mind: Transforming Your Relationship with Alcohol
The more that you watch your thinking, the less you can identify with it, the less seriously you have to take it. By practising being the watcher of your mind, you get to step back and to start recognising that you're not what you think.

He breaks down how observing your thoughts and emotions can help you change your relationship with alcohol. Patrick explains that by stepping back and watching our thoughts, we can identify and detach from harmful patterns.
This isn't just about stopping drinking; it's about understanding why we drink in the first place. Patrick offers practical tips on journaling and meditation to cultivate this awareness.
