110: 7 Myths About Moderation That Stop You Drinking Mindfully

from Mindful Drinking & Moderation in Midlife: How to Drink Less, On Your Terms · host Denise Hamilton-Mace

Send me a message 🤗In this episode of the Mindful Drinking & Moderation in Midlife Podcast, I’m busting seven of the biggest myths about moderation and mindful drinking. From the nonsense that drinking has to be “all or nothing,” to the idea that you have to count every single drink forever, or that moderation won’t do anything for your health — I’m setting the record straight. I’ll share why drinking ‘less’ is still real change, how we can reshape decades of midlife habits, and why moderation isn’t just for the young or for people or those with “a problem.” If you’re exploring low, no or light alcohol options, curious about mindful drinking, or just want to build a healthier relationship with alcohol, this one’s for you — packed with truths to help you live a life less intoxicated, on your own terms. 0:00 Busting Moderation Myths Wide Open2:14 Myth 1: Moderation Isn't Real Change4:30 Myth 2: Counting Every Drink Forever7:57 Myth 3: Always Falling Back to Old Habits15:02 Myth 4: You Won't Improve Your Health Unless You're Sober18:57 Myth 5: Only For Problem Drinkers22:18 Myth 6: Just Another Trend25:44 Myth 7: Only For Young PeopleFind me on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/denisehamiltonmace/Join the membership and get the resources you need to make the change you want - https://mindfuldrinking.substack.com/s/the-vault ===You can email me at [email protected]===🗝️ Join the membership and unlock full access to The Vault - https://mindfuldrinking.substack.com/s/the-vault===*Some links are affiliate links.
