There is an innate intelligence in the healing process, right like the skin and the way that the cells reform and the way that it has to self-cleanse or creates a certain bacteria in like an open cut right, or the way that it might get infected if it's exposed. The root of the problem is that your belief system around alcohol sees alcohol as very, very important, very, very crucial to your life right, and without it there will be a hole, there will be a gap.
Ever wonder why setting a goal to drink less often feels like a losing battle? In this episode of 'Stop Drinking and Start Living', Mary Wagstaff sheds light on the crucial difference between goals and intentions. While goals might push you to count drinks and rely on sheer willpower, intentions tap into something deeper – your core beliefs and desires.
Mary explains that when you aim to live a healthier life, you're driven by a powerful 'why' that goes beyond just numbers. She walks listeners through the process of identifying these deeper motivations, asking questions like 'Why do I want to live longer?' and 'What do I hope to experience?' This approach not only makes the journey more meaningful but also sustainable.
If you've ever struggled with feeling like alcohol has too strong a grip on you, this episode offers a refreshing perspective. Mary’s insights could be the key to transforming your relationship with alcohol from a battle of wills to a journey of the heart. Tune in for a heartfelt discussion that could change the way you think about drinking less.
