Alcohol Awareness: How Can We Build It?

Ever wondered how much you actually drink in a week or why you reach for that glass of wine? In this episode of 'The Alcohol Minimalist Podcast', Molly Watts takes a deep dive into the often-overlooked topic of alcohol awareness. Did you know April is Alcohol Awareness Month? Many people don't, and that's exactly why this episode is so crucial.

Molly unpacks two key questions that can help you build your own awareness and assist those around you: How much are you drinking weekly? And what stories do you tell yourself about alcohol? She emphasizes the importance of knowing your 'numbers'—just like you would with your blood pressure or weight. It's all about making informed choices and avoiding decision fatigue.

Molly also explores how our thoughts shape our drinking habits and highlights the power of curiosity and compassion in breaking free from addiction. She encourages listeners to include alcohol-free days in their week and suggests tools like Sunnyside, a digital coach to track and manage your drinking. If you're looking to understand your drinking habits better and build a more peaceful relationship with alcohol, this episode offers practical advice and thoughtful insights.
