Helpful Habits in Finding Freedom from Alcohol and Disordered Eating
Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine and writer Dana Leigh Lyons joins Cecily this week for an honest conversation about her relationship with dimmers: disordered eating, alcohol, and even screen time. Dana opens up about her early struggles with food, and later, her relationship with alcohol, which she quit in 2020. She describes how her experience growing up in a household with heavy drinking influenced her to abstain from alcohol until her twenties when she started drinking socially.
Dana's story of transformation involves significant self-awareness, finding support through online communities, and integrating various holistic practices into her life, including yoga, meditation, and plenty of solitude. Her 'Sober Soulful' newsletter on Substack explores addiction and sobriety expansively and she also uses the platform to celebrate and elevate other writers on the same theme. In emphasizing the importance of presence, solitude, and self-care in her continuing journey toward a holistic, connected life, Dana invites a gentle, but honest review of our habits and how we can be more healthful daily.
