Stop Bargaining, Start Accepting: Mary Wagstaff's Guide to Letting Go

When we try to change the way things are and create expectations that we can't control, we create more longing, desire and attachment for alcohol and stress around life.
Imagine if the key to breaking free from alcohol wasn't about willpower but about acceptance. In this episode of 'Stop Drinking and Start Living', Mary Wagstaff shares her wisdom on why accepting where you are now can be a game-changer in your journey to sobriety. She explains how creating realistic expectations and loving what is can help you move past longing and attachment to alcohol.
Instead of fighting against your current state, Mary encourages embracing it and asking yourself, 'What's the next step?' This episode is part of a series where Mary breaks down her holistic approach to living an alcohol-free life, and Step 7 focuses on stopping the internal bargaining and starting to cultivate new, healthier thoughts. If you've ever found yourself stuck in a cycle of desire and frustration, this conversation might just offer the perspective shift you need.
Tune in for practical advice and compassionate guidance on making peace with your present and moving towards a brighter, sober future.
