478: I've made so much progress with my drinking. So why doesn't it feel any easier? [Listener Q&A]
About this episode
The episode discusses why progress in reducing drinking may not feel easier and explores the mental aspects of alcohol dependency.
Have you ever wondered why, even though you've made so much progress with your drinking, it still feels like alcohol takes up way too much space in your mind? Tune in this week to learn why feeling stuck doesn't mean you've stopped making progress. You'll hear the difference between drinking less and needing alcohol less, why anticipation and worry can keep alcohol at the center of your thinking, and how measuring progress by what occupies your attention can be far more meaningful than simply counting drinks. 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/478
