How Quitting Alcohol Can Improve Your Life and Health as You Age with Brandi Babb

Confessions of a Freebird - Midlife, Divorce, Heal, and Date Differently with Somatic Experiencing, Empty Nest, Well-Being, Happiness

I don't know about you, but my mental, physical, and emotional health changes based on my alcohol consumption. As summer arrives, I am reevaluating my relationship with alcohol and this conversation will hopefully help you do the same.
As we age, our bodies change and menopause sets in, affecting the social drink or two we have at the summer BBQ!
Today, I invite Brandi Babb, a life and somatic coach to share with us her life-changing decision to quit alcohol in 2019, and hasn’t regretted it!! Brandi shares her journey from depending on alcohol to destress and regulate her nervous system to now helping others do the same.
What you’ll learn:

• The benefits of going sober and how making this one change has enhanced Brandi’s life and career, for the better.
• What happens to your body and brain when you drink?
• How consuming alcohol daily might be a sign that you are suppressing deeper issues such as general dissatisfaction, lack of joy, and unresolved trauma.
• The health impact of alcohol and how it affects women who are menopausal, and the science behind why our bodies react differently to alcohol as we age.
• Practical, somatic experiencing exercises to manage cravings and find relaxation without relying on alcohol so that you can enhance your overall well-being.
• How to empower yourself to make informed choices about alcohol consumption, focusing on your health and the quality of your life.

Tune in so you can make an informed decision about the role alcohol plays in your life, starting today!
Much love,
Laurie
