Your beliefs about alcohol are actually the problem Think about it— We teach kids to stop, drop & roll You know to look both ways before pulling out into traffic We even teach our dogs to not chase the squirrels… Yet somehow we all have come under the illusion that somehow we’re powerless to a craving? No. An urge is just a moment. A split-second impulse. You can learn to respond differently.

Research shows: The #1 reason people overdrink. . . isn’t alcohol. It’s what they believe about alcohol. I get it. People say mindful drinking is dangerous. But you know what’s more dangerous? Telling someone they have no control over themselves. That belief alone keeps people stuck. @askrsb

ā€œIf one drink means relapse, might as well spiralā€ā€”right? That lie keeps people stuck. One drink isn’t failure. It’s a moment. You didn’t lose your power—you’re still in control. You don’t need to be perfect. You just need to keep going. @askrsb

Yesterday I said the quiet part out loud on @askrsb: - Addiction isn’t a life sentence - You’re not powerless - Most recovery models are keeping people sick We covered: nutrition, nervous system healing, and what actually works. Timestamps: 0:41 - Addiction is an industry, not a life sentence 4:52 - AA was built before we understood brain chemistry 6:07 - You don’t lose control—you surrender it 12:16 - Relapse isn’t failure—it’s feedback 13:42 - Obsessing over sobriety is its own addiction 15:29 - Most recovery models are keeping people sick 16:29 - Fear keeps people compliant—and sick 23:36 - ā€œPowerlessnessā€ is a cult 24:25 - Nutrition, dopamine & nervous system healing matter

None are so hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free.

Good article on pros & cons of #plantbased milks. I’m a #silk almond milk fan, but always go for oat milk when I go out for a latte. #vegan #wfpb apple.news/AnLF6ozSCTKiidlR4…

CPBNM.org is run by a cardiologist who suggests a whole food plant based (#WFPB) diet to stop and reverse heart disease. And he's not the only one. More and more doctors are waking up to the healing power of plants! plantbasednews.org/post/the-… #EatPlants

In 2017, Jodi Gardner was diagnosed with Stage 4 GBM. Her doctor advised her to eat plant-based and avoid sugar. 29 months later, the cancer is in remission. #cancersucks #foodismedicine #plantbasedmedicine #realfood #cancersurvivor colleenkachmann.com/jodis-pl…
