Understanding Your Brain: Gill Tietz on Sobriety and Recovery

Realizing like I didn't have as many problems as I thought I did was really freeing for me. And that's what mindfulness allows us to do.
Ever wondered what really goes on in your brain when you drink? This episode of The Hangover Liberation Society brings you a fascinating conversation with Gill Tietz, the mind behind the Sober Powered podcast and YouTube channel. Gill is a sober scientist who breaks down complex research on alcohol use disorder into bite-sized, understandable pieces. In this chat, she explains how alcohol messes with your brain's reward system, sparking cravings and reactive behaviors.
But it's not all science; there's a lot of heart too. Adrienne shares a game-changing tip on how to reframe your 'to do' list to make your sober life more sustainable, while Erin guides listeners through a soothing movement sequence to activate the parasympathetic nervous system. If you're curious about how understanding your brain can empower your recovery journey, this episode is a must-listen.
Plus, the hosts challenge the stigma around addiction and highlight how sobriety can offer a fresh, positive perspective on life. Whether you're new to recovery or have been on this path for a while, you'll find valuable insights and practical advice to support your journey.
