My Secret Sobriety Weapon... with Christelle

Tribe Sober - inspiring an alcohol free life!

This week's guest is Tribe member Christelle who did our #Sober66 Challenge 5 years ago and has been thriving in her alcohol free lifestyle ever since...

in this episode:-

• Christelle realized that her drinking habits were problematic and knew she would have to make a change
  She knew that drinking a bottle of wine a night was damaging her health
• A particular worry was her heart rate which was in the high 80’s
• Christelle had signed up for our Dry January Challenge but she only lasted 30 minutes – rather than the 30 days of the Challenge
• Although she had not stuck at Dry January she decided to have a another try… at our 66 day Sober Spring Challenge
• It was hearing me on the radio tasting some alcohol free wines that gave her a light bulb moment…
• For Christelle her evening wine was a ritual…a ritual which had become a dependence due to the addictive nature of alcohol
• But if she could keep the ritual and change the ingredient by drinking alcohol free wine then it should be easier…
• To her relief Christelle met other people with a similar problem in the Challenge Community
• She connected regularly on the Challenge Whatsapp group and learned a lot
• As early as Day 8 of the Challenge she realized she could live without wine so long as she had the alcohol-free wine.
• So if you haven’t yet discovered alcohol free wine then do check it out – it could be a gamechanger for you just as it was for Christelle
• Her Benefits of Sobriety include:
  - Better looks (reduced puffiness and clearer skin).
  - Better sleep quality.
  - Reduced heart rate from 84 to low 60s – and probably most importantly of all…
  - Increased self-esteem and happiness.
• We agreed that for anyone who is even slightly concerned about their drinking should take a break from alcohol to check their dependence
• Doing our #Sober66 Challenge will provide online and community support
