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 website https://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.
The frog parable
When I was consulting in corporates I would often tell the “parable of the frogs” when I was trying
to convince an organisation that it had to change...
The story goes like this:-
Throw a frog into a pan of boiling water and he will use those strong back legs to leap out PDQ!
Place a frog in cold water in a pan which is heating gently on a stove and he will get comfy and just sit there - and carry on sitting there until the water heats up and he gets boiled alive!
(don't test this at home!)
Recently I realised that this parable can apply to drinking alcohol.
Many of us drink for many years without any dramas - but gradually some of us will "ever so slowly" get hooked
We will one day realise that we rarely have an "alcohol free day", we are quite happy to knock back a bottle of wine during an evening "home alone" - and that most of our socialising revolves around alcohol.
The joy of having a "trial separation" is that you get to see just how dependent you may have become - you can reflect on your usual relationship with alcohol and decide whether or not you need to make some changes.
