Tackling Holiday Cravings: Wisdom from William Porter on Sober Awkward

I never ever crave alcohol, and that's, I think, a key point: the thought of something into your head.
Picture this: it’s Christmas Eve, the tree is twinkling, and you’re surrounded by festive cheer. But for many, the holidays can also bring a wave of cravings and the struggle to stay sober. In this special episode of 'Sober Awkward', Vic and Hamish sit down with William Porter, the author of 'Alcohol Explained', to break down what cravings really are and how to handle them, especially during the holiday season.
William dives into the psychology behind cravings, explaining how our mindset plays a crucial role in sobriety. He also shares why we often fantasize about that first drink and how to change this perspective. The conversation gets into practical techniques for managing those pesky urges, like planning ahead and rethinking the way we view drinking.
They even touch on the dangers of vaping and nicotine addiction, making this episode a must-listen for anyone looking to navigate the holidays without succumbing to old habits. So, if you’re looking for some solid advice and a bit of festive support, this episode is just what you need.
