Rethinking Alcohol: Uncovering the Beliefs Behind Your Drinking Habits

Your thoughts are what make or break any habit. You must know what your 'belief story' around alcohol is, to know what you want it to become.
Why do you reach for that drink? In this episode of 'Stop Drinking and Start Living,' Mary Wagstaff dives into the psychology behind our drinking habits. She breaks down the concept of 'belief stories'—the narratives we tell ourselves about alcohol—and how these stories shape our actions. Mary highlights that our brains are wired to seek out evidence that supports these beliefs, making it tough to break free from old habits. But don't worry, she's got your back.
Mary shares practical tips on how to approach these ingrained thoughts with compassion and curiosity rather than judgment. By understanding the root of your drinking behavior, you can start to rewrite your story and make more mindful choices. Whether you're trying to cut back or quit entirely, this episode offers valuable insights into how you can change your relationship with alcohol. Tune in for a compassionate and eye-opening discussion that could be the first step toward a healthier, happier you.
