Your Attention Is Your Currency
Alcohol is the solution to the problem of drinking.
Say what?!?
When you get to this place, your dopamine reserves are always dipping below your baseline, creating a deficit.
This robs you from the pleasures of natural dopamine rewards from things like hugs, food, cooking, dancing, playing, community and exercise.
Places where you once found meaning.
Places where you found purpose and pleasure for pleasures sake.
It wasn't always a hike AND a micro brew.
No that you KNOW what's happening in your body, you can find out where you are stacking pleasure and do one thing at a time.
Focus.
Stop multitasking.
Stop eating AND watching TV.
Stop scrolling instagram while you are helping your kids with their home work.
Does a cozy evening need to be cozier with a hot toddy?
Why are you drinking?
Why aren't you enjoying your life?
Are you paying attention to the bounty at your feet?
Exhausted by abundance.
The first world problem that will truly be our demise unless we PUTDOWN THE PHONES.
Being present with the pleasure of pursuing the things you enjoy is where you find your purpose.
In this podcast episode I discuss:
What does PURPOSE mean and how do you find yours?
How to use your purpose to stop over indulging.
Where your attention goes, dopamine flows. You only have so much. How to get the most out of using your most motivating neurotransmitter?
Why your life and things you use to enjoy might seem dull and meaningless without alcohol.
How to change your relationship to alcohol and have a steady long lasting joy VS. short term pleasure that has no benefit.
The world changes when we change. We create harmony inside and it reflects in the perception of our lives. We can't complain enough to see change. We must appreciate what is, then our problems become less.
With pleasure,
Mary
