Natural Craving Remedies: Mary Ann Shearer's Insights on Tribe Sober

Ditching the drink is like climbing a mountain.
Ever wondered how to tackle those pesky cravings without reaching for a drink? In this episode of the Tribe Sober Podcast, host Janet Gourand chats with the inspiring Mary Ann Shearer. A best-selling author and motivational speaker, Mary Ann has been advocating for natural health and veganism for over three decades. Her book, 'The Natural Way', offers a treasure trove of wisdom on how to lead a healthier life, and she brings some of that knowledge to this conversation.
Mary Ann shares her unique perspective on cravings, shaped by her own experiences growing up with alcoholic parents. She explains how children of alcoholics often crave order and control, and how these tendencies can manifest in different ways. Some might avoid alcohol entirely, like Mary Ann herself, while others might follow in their parents' footsteps. One of the key takeaways from this episode is Mary Ann's advice on managing cravings through diet.
Instead of reaching for chocolates or sweets, she recommends satisfying your sweet tooth with fresh fruits. This not only helps curb cravings but also supports overall health. The discussion also touches on the broader impacts of alcohol on the body. Mary Ann highlights how alcohol can suppress the immune system and disrupt hormonal balance, leading to various health issues. She emphasizes the importance of proper nutrition and natural remedies to support the body's healing process.
In addition to dietary tips, Mary Ann advocates for incorporating natural light, fresh air, and regular exercise into your daily routine. Practices like yoga and life skills training can also play a crucial role in managing stress and cravings. Whether you're sober-curious or already on your journey to an alcohol-free life, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice. Tune in to learn how you can cope with cravings naturally and embrace a healthier, more balanced lifestyle.
