You've made the list. You have all the reasons why drinking less is a smart choice. You know all the benefits and you really do want to change. So why isn't that enough in the moment? Why does your motivation disappear the second a craving shows up or as soon as you've finished your first drink?
Many people spend years believing that their long list of good reasons should be enough to change my drinking habits. They're bursting at the seams with benefits and regrets, convinced they should just know better by now. The mistake here? Trying to logic yourself out of desire, waiting for all your good reasons to rewire your brain.
Join me this week to learn how desire really works, why you find yourself on autopilot the moment a craving hits, and what to do about it.
