from Alcohol-Free Lifestyle

Have you noticed that your emotions feel louder, sharper, and harder to manage since you stopped drinking? Host Teri Patterson explains why this "emotional flood" is a normal part of the alcohol-free journey. Discover the science of Polyvagal Theory, the biological roadmap of your nervous system, and learn how to identify whether you are in a state of Ventral Vagal (safety), Sympathetic (fight or flight), or Dorsal Vagal (shutdown). This episode provides high achievers with practical tools to expand their Window of Tolerance, helping them move from "numbing out" to "feeling through." Learn how to honor your nervous system, regulate your responses, and find the quiet strength that comes from true alcohol-free emotional safety.   Download my FREE guide: The Alcohol Freedom Formula For Over 30s Entrepreneurs & High Performers: https://social.alcoholfreelifestyle.com/podcast ★ - Learn more about Project 90: www.alcoholfreelifestyle.com/Project90 ★ - (Accountability & Support) Speak verbally to a certified Alcohol-Free Lifestyle coach to see if, or how, we could support you having a better relationship with alcohol: https://www.alcoholfreelifestyle.com/schedule ★ - The wait is over – My new book "CLEAR" is now available.
