Listen "403: Drinking and Feeling Like an Adult"
Episode Synopsis
If you're taking a break from drinking this holiday season, you might feel like you're stuck at the kids' table at every gathering. The reality is, we have been socialized to view alcohol as a sophisticated, adult activity. Those thoughts—implanted by TV, movies, and marketing—create desire and fuel a vicious habit cycle. Tune in to explore how your brain learned to outsource certain beliefs about adulthood to the contents of your glass. You'll also discover how to retrain your brain, because it's easier to say no when what you're drinking doesn't make you feel like a kid. Find a personalized approach that helps you change your habit in my new book, The Ultimate Guide to Drinking Less, here: https://rachelhart.com/guide/ Discover alternative approaches to drinking less inside our membership program, Take a Break: https://rachelhart.com/tab/ Get the full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://rachelhart.com/403
