From Booze to Balance: Matt Ellis' Sobriety and Yoga Journey

It's about trying to be the best version of yourself, you know, trying to be better than you thought you ever could be, and that has definitely happened to me because of sobriety.
What happens when a man trades in his nightly drinks for a yoga mat? In this episode of The Alcohol ReThink Podcast, Patrick Fox chats with Matt Ellis, also known as @soberyogadad. Matt opens up about his path to sobriety, sparked by a moment of self-awareness during the Covid-19 lockdown. Realizing his excitement over alcohol deliveries, he began to question his relationship with booze and sought a healthier way of living.
His journey led him to yoga, which became a cornerstone of his new lifestyle. Matt and Patrick delve into how sobriety can help you confront your ego, embrace meditation, and become more mindful of your emotions. They discuss the language we use around drinking and the surprising benefits of quitting alcohol, like reduced anxiety and a clearer mind. Matt shares how yoga not only helped him stay sober but also taught him to be kinder to himself and others.
If you're curious about how sobriety and yoga can transform your life, this episode offers plenty of insights and practical advice.
