Hello darling heart and to the drink less, live better podcast.
-:
00:17
This is the podcast that helps you to see that drinking less doesn't need to be stressful, lonely, or boring.
-:
00:26
I'm your host, Sarah Williamson, and I decided to have a year alcohol free as a little life experiment and haven't looked back.
-:
00:32
With my experience in training, I now help other people with their alcohol free or drink less adventures.
-:
00:39
You can find out more and sign up to my 5 day drink less challenge at drink less live better dot com.
-:
00:46
I'm here to tell you that you can relax, connect, and have fun without alcohol in your life.
-:
00:52
Join me here each week to find out how. Look.
-:
00:56
I'm here to talk to you about sober September.
-:
01:07
Of course, we have dry January, dry July, sober September, sober October, and they sound good. They trip off the tongue.
-:
01:18
I'm going to come back and share some thoughts on September, but before I do I'd like you to know this: Anytime. Anytime.
-:
01:25
Anytime at all is good for an extended break from alcohol.
-:
01:32
Any day on which you start and also the length of time you choose to go for.
-:
01:36
Any time is a good time without a drink.
-:
01:43
So with that said, why am I here to advocate for September in particular?
-:
01:49
Well, it's about the new season, the change of gear.
-:
01:56
In the northern hemisphere we're going to cool down soon and in the south you're going to start potting up.
-:
02:05
If perhaps you have drunk your way through the last season now is the perfect moment to reconsider what you want next.
-:
02:17
A break from alcohol is a physical, emotional, and spiritual gift to yourself, and that gift can be yours because you deserve
-:
02:27
better quality sleep, because your mood and concentration levels will be improved, because your anxiety and low level brain
-:
02:37
fog will lessen, because your energy levels will soar, because you know the harm alcohol is causing you, and perhaps you've
-:
02:41
been denying or pushing away these feelings for a while now.
-:
02:52
You deserve to live a life where you are true to yourself even if it makes others around you feel uncomfortable, because we
-:
02:58
only have one life, just this one precious time in this physical body.
-:
03:06
You know you are worthy of the time, energy and effort you're going to put into this sober month.
-:
03:13
You might have been alcohol free for a while or you might be new to this whole rodeo.
-:
03:21
Either way, committing is a positive and powerful choice to make. Choose sober September.
-:
03:29
You might have been interested or curious in the past, claim it now though.
-:
03:41
Move from interested to committed because you want to feel better about yourself, for yourself, and maybe for those around you too.
-:
03:48
As if by magic, I have my sober September program open for enrolment right now.
-:
