Breaking Free: Understanding Attachment Thinking in Alcohol Addiction

Bringing things into your view, into your perspective that you were unaware of, right that were not apparent to you before, is how you eliminate your desire and attachment to alcohol.
Ever wondered why letting go of alcohol feels like an impossible task? In this episode of 'Stop Drinking and Start Living', host Mary Wagstaff takes you on a journey through step 4 of her 10-step series: Awareness of Attachment Thinking. Mary dives deep into the mental habits that keep us tethered to alcohol, even when we know it's time to let go. She explores how our thoughts create a romanticized image of alcohol, making it seem indispensable in our lives.
But guess what? These thoughts can be unlearned and replaced with healthier beliefs. Mary encourages listeners to be curious about their attachment to alcohol and to examine the nostalgia and ideas they've built around it. By cultivating non-judgmental awareness and writing down these thoughts, you can start to see alcohol for what it truly is—a learned behavior that can be unlearned.
This episode isn't just about quitting drinking; it's about reshaping your relationship with yourself and opening up to new possibilities. Mary believes that taking personal responsibility is the first step towards a better life. If you're ready to take control and explore what's possible beyond alcohol, this episode is a must-listen.
