Ep 111: Transform Your Drinking Habits with Curiosity not Shame
The Catholic Sobriety Podcast
12/27/24 β’ 37 min
Ever wondered how becoming a 'scientist' of your own drinking habits can transform your path to sobriety? Join us on the Catholic Sobriety Podcast as we unravel the empowering journey of reducing or eliminating alcohol consumption through curiosity and understanding.
We dive into insights from day 1 of the Made for More workshop (12/17/24), encouraging you to trade shame for curiosity. Discover the power of journaling to track patterns, triggers, and your emotional journey before, during, and after drinking. By becoming an honest observer of your habits, you can harness the valuable insights necessary to reshape your relationship with alcohol.
In our latest discussion, we draw fascinating parallels between building sober habits and the art of muscle strengthening. Reflect on your drinking choices, embrace both the triumphs and stumbles, and learn to celebrate small victories.
Through gentle perseverance and the courage to accept feedback, you'll gain the confidence to resist alcohol's allure and break free from the cycle of anxiety and guilt. We challenge the misconception of alcohol as a solution and guide you in understanding how to dismantle the emotional buffers that exacerbate life's challenges.
Imagine your sobriety as a precious pearl, formed by the layers of habits and lifestyle changes you nurture over time. We delve into the significance of identifying your personal 'why' in the pursuit of sobriety and how it can serve as a powerful motivator. With introspection and perhaps a touch of spiritual guidance, this journey helps you recognize the costs of alcohol on your life and well-being.

I invite you to journey through the Transtheoretical Method - or the Six Stages of Change Model - as roadmap that takes us from aching doubt to blissful action.
