Are cravings all in the mind?! What if cravings were just thoughts that we bring to life in a very real way, making them into physical urges just with our interpretation of them? That’s food for thought just there! Here we demystify and dig into what cravings really are and what you can do to help yourself through them should they creep up!!
Cravings are a normal part of recovery; they are harmless and don’t have to be something you fear. Cravings are just thoughts or impulses that we interpret as physical urges.
It’s important to remember that cravings are just thoughts, and the power to overcome them lies in how we interpret them. If we recognize cravings as thoughts, we can learn to manage them more effectively.
In this episode, we look into the various strategies to help manage them, such as distraction techniques, questioning, deep breathing, and mindfulness, to name a few!
Coaches Lily and Zoë hope that opening our eyes to what really is will help you navigate this incredible journey to freedom from alcohol easier. Knowledge is power and you'll get loads of both in this episode.
