Ever wondered if alcohol is the real culprit behind bad behavior? In this episode of Recovery Elevator, Paul Churchill dives into this burning question. He kicks things off by sharing the intricate process of putting together a podcast episode—spoiler alert, it's a team effort! Then, Paul discusses an eye-opening article about alcohol and antisocial behavior. The study suggests that while alcohol might impair empathy, it doesn't necessarily change our moral compass. Intriguing, right? But that's not all.
Paul also talks about the importance of rewiring the brain to achieve sobriety. Addiction isn't a failure; it's feedback that something needs to change. He challenges the stigma around the word 'alcoholic' and introduces techniques like neuro-linguistic programming to help rewire the brain. Sobriety milestones?
