Your mind and your heart and your palate do eventually become interested in other pleasures and other comforts of many varieties, and the world opens up to you again as the importance of alcohol starts to fade behind you.
Ever been stumped by the simple question, 'What would you like to drink?' If you're in recovery, this can be a real head-scratcher. In this episode of The Bubble Hour, host Jean McCarthy chats with Julie Elsdon-Height, the creative mind behind the recipe book 'Mocktails and More' and the blog 'Sober Julie'. Together, they dive into the practical side of finding satisfying non-alcoholic drinks for every occasion.
Whether you're at a party, dining out, or just unwinding at home, Julie shares her favorite go-to beverages that help keep sobriety fun and enjoyable. She suggests mixing juices with fizzy water and a fruit garnish instead of the usual virgin cocktails. But it's not just about the drinks; it's also about navigating social situations and overcoming triggers. Julie opens up about how discovering new drink options helped her feel more confident and less anxious in social settings.
Jean and Julie also touch on the concept of surrender in recovery. Surrendering might sound daunting, but it can lead to a newfound sense of freedom and control over your life. This episode is packed with practical tips and heartfelt stories, making it a must-listen for anyone looking to enrich their sober lifestyle. Tune in to learn how you can fill your glass—and your life—with joy and comfort.
