Rewiring Your Thoughts on Drinking: A Sober Short with Tribe Sober
We give alcohol far too much credit for the good times and somehow we have to uncouple that alcohol stroke fun connection.
Ever felt like society's pressure to drink is overwhelming? In this episode of Tribe Sober's Sober Short series, host Janet dives into the fourth tool from their Tribe Sober Toolkit: changing your mindset about drinking. Janet highlights how the alcohol industry spends millions to make us believe we need their products, and how this normalization can make non-drinkers feel like outsiders. The key to breaking free from these beliefs is first identifying them.
Janet guides listeners on how to intellectually challenge these thoughts and then change behaviors to create new neural pathways. For instance, if you think you can't have fun without a drink, write down the opposite and practice socializing sober. It's a journey that requires perseverance and courage, but with time, you can reshape your mindset and embrace a vibrant, alcohol-free life. This episode is packed with practical advice and encouragement for anyone looking to rethink their relationship with alcohol.
So tune in, challenge those limiting beliefs, and start building a healthier mindset today.
