  • Use simple practices like finding your breath and coming to your senses to shift your mind into the present moment
  • Your relationship to alcohol is all about your thinking
When you are frequently thinking about changing alcohol, it is going to become the inclination of your mind.
What if the key to drinking less wasn't just about willpower, but about understanding the beliefs that drive your actions? In this episode, Mary Wagstaff dives deep into the idea that our habits, especially those around alcohol, are deeply rooted in our belief systems. She challenges the conventional wisdom that sheer determination is enough, and instead, emphasizes the importance of awareness and intentional thought shifts.

By exploring where you place your attention, especially during emotional triggers, you can begin to understand and challenge the beliefs that lead you to drink. This episode is all about anchoring yourself in the present moment, using simple practices like mindful breathing to interrupt habitual thought patterns.
