Ever found yourself pouring a drink without even thinking about it? In this episode of Alcohol Tipping Point, host Deb Mazner, a registered nurse and health coach, dives into the concept of autopilot behaviours and how they influence our drinking habits. Deb shares a recording from her mindfulness class, 'Mindful AF', where she explores how much of our drinking is just a habit we can break.
She discusses automaticity—our tendency to perform tasks automatically—and how it affects our decisions, especially around alcohol. Deb provides practical techniques to break free from these automatic cycles by using mindfulness to become more aware of our habits. Through relatable examples and light-hearted humour, she explains how you can interrupt these patterns and make conscious choices. Whether you're looking to take a break from drinking or quit altogether, Deb's insights offer valuable guidance.
Tune in to discover how small changes in your daily routine can make a big difference in breaking the cycle of autopilot drinking. Ready to take control of your habits? This episode is packed with tips to help you on your journey.
