66 Days Sober Challenge - Day 5

This is a series of 66 mini podcasts - to support you through a 66 day alcohol free challenge.

The challenge lasts for 66 days because thats how long it takes to change a habit.  

We have published an e-book called "66 days to sobriety" (available on our websitehttps://www.tribesober.com) - this book contains 66 pages of tips, tools and motivation so I will read a page a day for these mini podcasts.

I will also update you on the healing taking place in your body and mind as you progress through the 66 days.

Goodbye letter to alcohol

One of the techniques we recommend at our workshops is the "Goodbye Letter to Alcohol" - the idea behind this is that for some of us our relationship with alcohol can be as harmful as with an abusive lover.  You can read my letter and others on THIS WEBSITE

If you are doing this Sober Challenge then you are not contemplating a major and painful breakup but you are  having a "trial separation" from what sometimes feels like your "best friend".
 
During your alcohol-free period you will find that alcohol is everywhere - to stay with the abusive lover analogy
 just imagine if you had used all your strength to ditch him and then he kept popping up everywhere you went - looking gorgeous and obviously wanting you back!  (as if he knows he still has a hold on you)

Your alcohol-free period is giving you time to examine your relationship with alcohol (with a clear head ;-) - check out those letters on the website to see if any of them resonate with you, educate yourself about just what alcohol does to your brain and body - and make plenty of notes in your trusty journal.  Keep an open mind - this is an experiment and no conclusions allowed before the end of the challenge!
