Alcohol and Mental health We were greatly honoured to have our friend Laura @thesoberlioness on the pod to talk mental health and alcohol. Laura is an absolute warrior, shero and galpal. Sobriety in her own words "Is the gift that keeps on giving, which changed my life!" Laura, Kate and I’s mental health has dramatically improved by stopping drinking, and as importantly our mental health was significantly worsened by drinking alcohol. So it is one of the most important and vital conversations to be had in sobriety. Also It’s one year since our first pod episode. What a year of ups and downs it’s been. To quote Frank (sort of) "We’ve loved, we’ve laughed and cried. We’ve had our fill, our share of losing. And now as tears subside, we find it so amusing. To think we did all that, and may we say, not in a shy way, oh, no, oh, no, not us, we did it the love sober waaaaay" We are so so grateful for everything the pod has brought us, friendship, support and pride. Thank so much for all the messages we have received. We have ALOT of exciting projects to come...

This week on the pod we talk slips, blips, going back to drinking and or relapse. These are highly emotive terms, so we chat our experiences on this subject and the experiences we have had. Whatever day you’re on, however many times you’ve tested your limits and boundaries around alcohol, be proud of yourself for dusting yourself off and starting again, read another book, dig a little deeper and work the hardest at forgiving yourself, making yourself your own best friend because one day alcohol won’t be something you miss or want it will be something you won’t want anywhere near your precious self. So grab a cuppa and let’s chat. Resources mentioned: Tara Mohr - Playing Big William Porter - Alcohol Explained Tara Brach - RAIN of self compassion

Part 2 High days and Holidays. We continue on with our discussions of lessons learned recently in the our break and then move on to the bank holiday weekend. How it took a lot of people by surprise. Sunshine vs time off from work vs obligations. Expectations can be very hard to navigate especially when you are newly sober, so we talk strategies to get through times like this, the importance of saying no, preparation and talking yourself through and reaching out for help. So grab a cuppa and let’s chat.

This week on the Love Sober Podcast Mandy talked with Jolene Park. Jolene Park is a great friend of ours and hugely knowledgeable on holistic health. Her TEDx talk introduced to us the notion of “Grey Area” drinkers and the NOURISH acronym has been hugely helpful in our understanding of our own relationship with alcohol. Jolene is over in Europe facilitating workshops including our first event. Love Yourself Sober: Nuture Yourself on the 13th April in Brighton. https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/love-sober-life-nurture-yourself-sober-with-jolene-park-tickets-55520951661 Jolene is nutritionist, health coach and TEDx speaker. She also co-hosts the Edit Podcast, editing our drinking and our lives with Aiden Donnelly Rowley. Jolene founded www.GrayAreaDrinkers.com. This is an online hub for gray area drinkers to get support, for former gray area drinkers to unite and for coaches to learn Jolene’s exclusive techniques. We chat about what Jolene will focus on in the workshop. Why she stopped drinking, how somatic yoga has helped enormously with anxiety and finding hobbies that we love. So grab a cuppa and let’s chat.

This week on the pod we chat with our younger sobersister Kate @thesobermillenials Kate’s sobriety story is hugely inspiring for anyone who has asked the question, would giving up alcohol improve my mental health? Kate’s decision to stop drinking had a huge impact on her anxiety and depression and she wants to share that message with others. She gives some great tips on starting out in sobriety, to stay present and look for the joy in life. She is hugely enthusiastic about bringing people together and having fun and proving that sobriety is definitely not boring, and definitely better for your mental health.

Things have been tricky #understatement for team Love Sober so we have approached this episode to try to have some light relief whilst dealing with the subject of hidden triggers. When is it for you that the Wine witch pops her evil head when you least expect it? Is it on a cooking program or a sunny café terrace? We examine these and other things that make us shout “oh f*** off booze” Sending love to the family of @j.fletch.productionz who helped us hugely set up, edit and produce this podcast in the beginning who died suddenly from a heart attack recently you are loved and will be missed. Massive thanks to D too who took over producing these episodes for us, especially facing the sh**storm that life is throwing at you right now. Big love to all. Grab a cuppa and let’s chat x
