Send me a message 🤗Today, I’m exploring how years of conditioning led me to make unfair assumptions about my hosts, who were actually on their own mindful drinking journey, at a recent kids’ birthday party. This experience prompted me to question the wider assumptions we all make - about venues, other people's perceptions, and even ourselves and the habitual thoughts and behaviours that dictate our actions when navigating social drinking situations. 0:00 Party time1:53 My assumption5:59 Mixed drinking hosting6:58 Habitual behaviours8:33 Reflecting with an open mindAlso mentioned:Zeno Sparkling Wine*Brew Dog IPA*Best episode to listen to next: #21 DECEM: From Masterchef finalist to 10% Spirit Distiller#79 Powerful Mindset Shifts That Will Transform Your Experience with Low/No Drinks – pt1===🌱 Ready for real change in the way you drink? - https://www.lownodrinker.com/4weekreset===🗝️ Become a Vault member to get access to the moderation tools that actually help - https://mindfuldrinking.substack.com/s/the-vault===✏️ Come hang out with me on Substack - https://mindfuldrinking.substack.com/===❓ Take the Midlife Drinking Triggers Quiz - https://quiz.tryinteract.com/#/68dd33385bb4a20015996a13===*Some links are affiliate links.
