Ever wondered how to tackle sobriety like a pro? This episode of Tribe Sober features hypnotherapist Nigel Jones, who shares his journey and strategies for living an alcohol-free life. Nigel's secret? Start as a non-drinker from day one, rather than struggling to quit. He uses the metaphor of a mountain - placing yourself at the top from the start, rather than clawing your way up.
Nigel believes our beliefs and values shape our identity, which in turn drives our intentions and actions. So, flipping your beliefs about alcohol can be a game-changer. Hypnotherapy plays a big role here, helping to access the subconscious and replace limiting beliefs with healthier ones. Nigel also dives into the tribal nature of drinking, explaining how people protect their 'Alcohol Drinkers Tribe'.
Leaving this tribe can be daunting, but finding a new community, like Tribe Sober, can offer support and connection. With his book 'Walking Back to Happiness', Nigel provides more insights into an alcohol-free lifestyle. If you're curious about how hypnotherapy and NLP can aid your journey, or if you want to understand the tribal dynamics of drinking, this episode is a must-listen.
