Thrive Q & A : Changing your mindset around alcohol & why is matters.

This episode features a detailed live Q&A session with two Sinclair Method (TSM) coaches, who also share their personal experiences using TSM to overcome alcohol use disorder (AUD). The conversation centers around the Sinclair Method, a pharmacological approach to treating problem drinking that uses the medication naltrexone (referred to as “nrexZone”) to reduce alcohol cravings by rewiring the brain. Unlike traditional abstinence-based programs such as AA, TSM allows individual choice in recovery goals, supporting either reduced drinking or complete abstinence based on personal preference. The hosts emphasize the importance of understanding the chronic relapsing nature of AUD, the challenges of compliance with the medication protocol, and the necessity of mindset shifts around recovery. They highlight how TSM addresses the neurological addiction, reversing alcohol dependency by targeting brain receptors, which leads many users to lose cravings and become indifferent to alcohol. The discussion also explores common struggles such as relapse, compliance, and the psychological attachment to drinking rituals. The coaches underscore that recovery is a process involving gradual change, patience, and often confronting underlying beliefs about alcohol’s role in one’s life. The session includes practical advice for people on TSM, their partners, and those struggling with compliance, as well as addressing side effects like intensified hangovers. The hosts encourage participants to develop supportive environments, seek medical advice where needed, and use community and coaching resources for accountability. They close by celebrating successes within the community and encouraging ongoing engagement for sustained recovery.   About Katie Lain Katie Lain struggled with alcohol use disorder for nearly ten years until she stumbled upon The Sinclair Method. She couldn’t believe how effective the treatment was as it truly allowed her to become a moderate “normal drinker” – yet somehow, most people hadn’t even heard about it before. Katie Lain’s personal success with The Sinclair Method has inspired her to be a lifelong advocate for this method. Today, Katie is "accidentally" alcohol-free as she unexpectedly lost interest in drinking, thanks to this treatment. Now she advocates for and supports others through this wildly effective (yet unknown) treatment for alcohol use disorder.      *Links* https://www.thrivealcoholrecovery.com/ https://tiktok.com/@thrivealcoholrecovery https://youtube.com/@thrivealcoholrecovery/ https://www.instagram.com/thrivealcoholrecovery/ https://www.facebook.com/groups/thrivewiththesinclairmethod https://www.linkedin.com/company/thrive-alcohol-recovery/ https://twitter.com/thrivewithtsm/
