59. Understanding the Desire to Drink

In this week’s episode of The Alcohol ReThink Podcast Patrick helps bring awareness and understanding to your desire to want to drink. He explores why we desire alcohol, where it comes from and how you can change it. Some of the awesome things he talks about are: - We create our own desire - Desire serves a purpose, what purpose do you want it to serve? - The associations our brain makes with circumstances in our lives - How our brain creates desire through memory and visualisation - The desire to drink isn’t a fact of who you are it’s what you’ve trained yourself to believe - What we focus on we create more of - When we understand the Motivational Triad we can have so much more understanding and compassion for ourselves. - How to look at desire as a notification - Alcohol can’t make you drink, what you think about it does - Finding thoughts that create desire - Staying conscious is key Connect with Patrick: To find out how Patrick can help you stop drinking and create an awesome life without alcohol, book a free one hour consultation to discover how his 6 month 1-1 coaching program will take you from feeling out of control and self hating, to sober, clear-headed, full of energy, looking good and doing more of what you love in life.
