This is an intimate and vulnerable episode you don't want to miss. I take you through the interpersonal workings of my brain and body through a fear response, melancholy and the Exact, step by step, in real time, emotional  process I used on a plane flying to Mexico.

This is the 6th step out of 10, and probably THE MOST CRUCIAL to practice and master.

Go slow and do what feels safe.
In the Stop Drinking and Start Living Program you will have access to multiple versions of this process to see what lands with you and your body.
I will also take you 1:1 through the process in real time.
Knowing something conceptually vs. true embodiment is a game changer.

Everyone comes to this practice with a different set of trauma's.
It is important to validate your body for protecting you and closing the gap between the ego and sources, little by little,  until you feel safe enough to surrender.
Quantum healing is using your senses and imagination to really FEEL into the emotion and do a lot of deep integration and healing in a short amount of time.

Step by step process for processing an urge/emotion: (this happens in your head or out loud)
You can incorporate essential oils into this practice for even better results.
1) Become aware your mind is looping and the urge is growing because of it. Take note of the space around you and you in the space. Just become aware.
2) Take several deep breaths and say: Come in to the body. Just breath and make space. Use the exhale breath through the mouth through out, as needed to keep emptying heat and making space.
3) Locate the place of the urge in the body. Name it.
4) Discribe how it FEELS, the sensations.
5) Give it an identity with the senses. (what is the shape, color, texture, feel, smell, taste, sound?)
6) If this urge or emotion had a message for you, what would it say?
7) From the place of the compassionate witness, respond to that message.
8) keep responding to the YOU who is having the urge with words of love, kindness, compassion, understanding. (I see you, I hear you, I am not going anywhere, keep breathing.)
9) Bring in white golden light, or an element to dissolve the urge.
10) Use the inhale breath like a sponge to dissolve the urge. Use the exhale breath to dissipate and transmute the energy.
11) Keep spreading the golden white light or element of your choice ( go with what naturally comes to you) though out your entire body.
12) Let the light/element move past your skin and 6 feet in all directions until you are completely absorbed by this light.
13) Imagine the emotion of peace, freedom, unconditional love.
14) Bring in an image, see your self experiencing that vibration.
15) Keep breathing and rest here until it feels like it's time to come back to your environment.

Remember what you love and you will remember who you are.
Make a list of all of the things little to big you have ever loved since you were a baby until now.
Look at how they make you feel and how many of them will have nothing to do with alcohol.
There's all the evidence you need that a life LOVED is a life you already KNOW, you just need to keep practicing.

Today we are talking all about generating evidence to the contrary of the beliefs that support alcohol, but not in your outer world, in your life. Evidence you already have because it's you are amazing and other things are more important to you than alcohol. The more evidence you have that you DON'T require alcohol, the less desire and attachment you will have.

1) Look at what you love and why?
2) What are your NON_negotiables around alcohol? Where won't you drink? Dig deep to find that core VALUE and apply that reason to the areas where it seems impossible.
3) Out of these "trigger" categories, find evidence where you use to drink and don't any more. Or how you solve the problem already without alcohol. Recognize your inner strength to know you can apply this to other areas.
Write it down and make a list.
4) Remind yourself often of how amazing you are!

Types Of Triggers:
Habitual: regular drinking that is second nature.
Coping : As a tool for "processing"/suppressing emotion.
Situational: "Special occasion" drinking.
Nastolgia: Fond memories you experience through the senses.
Nihilism/Self Sabotage: "Screw it." Not in alignment w/ higher self.
Trauma/Life Events: Something you haven't yet experienced.

When we try to change the way things are and create expectations that we can't control, we create more longing, desire and attachment for alcohol and stress around life.
Acceptance and loving what is, is a quick and easy way to start to eliminate your desire and attachment to alcohol.

Where are you NOW with alcohol and where do you want to go? Start here and accept that this is where you are.
Create some statements that are neutral:
It's okay.
We are here now.
What's the next step?
We know where we want to go, just one foot in front of the other.

This week, start to cultivate NEW THINKING from acceptance and stop wasting your time on trying to have what you can not control.

The energy of emotions fueling your decision has a bigger impact on the result than the decision itself.  We make decisions for two reasons: to move towards pain or away from pleasure. This is why it is challenging to change your relationship to alcohol because it does both of those things at the same time.

What we water grows.
Where you place your attention, energy flows.
Today we grow awareness around the place in your mind where you are making decisions from. Love and abundance or fear and scarcity.

It's a powerful facet to awaken to that will have a huge impact on how your move through circumstances you would have drank in in the past. This is how you want to set yourself up for success to plan ahead of time so the mind you bring with you is one of POSSIBILITY vs. PRACTICALITY.

This is how you get new results.

Your attention span is your advantage to success.

Learning takes time to get you from where you are to where you want to go

vs. jumping around from one thing to the next because it "didn't work."

Anything will work if you work it and give it time, anything.

Circumstances don't create your outcome, your thoughts do.

Where are your thoughts?

They are on an "easier" way.

A way that's not the one in front of you.

Don't get sucked in.

Pick ONE distention and put your blinders on.

Don't stop until you get there.

Eliminating your desire for alcohol, getting it out of your way and being free of the burdens of alcohol is no different.

This episode is the first break down of how the Stop Drinking and Start Living Program will meet you ever step of the way on your learning journey.

In the Stop Drinking and Start Living Program you will gain all the Clarity, Confidence and Commitment you need to be successful.

I break down:
-Why you need to give yourself time.
-The actual steps of the process of learning.
-How the stop drinking and start living program overcomes all of your objections and fears.
-why you already have what it takes to be successful.
-how the tools and process you learn in the program can be applied to every other area of life.
-why the stop drinking & start living program is the last time you will ever start the process of stoping.

I interview my super fun and ambitious client, Laura  Jelinek.
It's PACKED with wisdom and next steps for you and your journey.

Though the process of coaching Laura speaks to how she put alcohol in it's place and is keeping it there:
💖Turning resistance into curiosity through embracing the feminine, being part of life. That in our modern world we are simply not taught to FEEL, but it's the door way to EVOLUTION.
💖How new beliefs take time to create.
💖Why moderation takes up more time and energy than not drinking.
💖The freedom of clarity of mind and SPACE after alcohol.
💖What it mean to take it down to the STUDS of your beliefs around alcohol.
💖What is possible for her CARPE DIEM mentality now that alcohol is out of her way.
💖How the answers you seek are truly inside.
💖Where she is now continues to allow alcohol to be " such an easy trade from this vantage point".

YES!!!! This is possible for you too. Thank you Laura for your bravery and curiosity. We can't wait to see more of you magic in this world. xxoo, Mary

"I rediscovered the core of who I am and what brings me life. I felt feelings that were so so big. I didn’t know my heart got that big. And definitely more than once the idea in my mind was - with alcohol this would not be possible!
Big love to you!! Thank you so much for all your support in getting me to this point. I had to open up and get curious. And that curiosity is blooming so damn big right now!!!!🌹🌹🌹🌹✨✨✨✨✨" - Message Laura

The narrative of what you think it means to drink or not drink is one of the biggest things keeping you stuck in your relationship to alcohol.

What I want you to know, is it's all made up and you get to decide from your brain what BELIEFS you want to keep and which one's are no longer useful.

Today on the podcast, I talk about why I am starting the stop drinking and stop living program. (YAY!!!)

You are still evolving, is it important that you have access to new structures, beliefs and paradigms in our culture that are relevant and up to date with your needs.

Mental health, self development, coaching, spiritual connection and the desire to change one's relationship to alcohol are quickly becoming necessities to have access to for all people.

Not because the person has the "problem", but because alcohol is no longer useful and is taking up more thought time than it needs.

This program is designed to support internal Innovation so you can begin to recognize your WHOLENESS, vs the need to fill a hole with anything outside of yourself.

This is what ultimately reduces your desire to drink.

Find out how you can blaze the trail of the next phase of human evolution and show up unapologetically ready to rock being YOU more fully.

Let's GO!
Mary

Get ready to be inspired! My fun and inspirational client, Amanda started her journey with a year of curiosity listening to the podcast.

Things started shifting for her when she realized there was in fact a new and maybe desirable way to drink less, forever.

Once she gave herself permission to dive into the coaching, it was the SPARK that ignited her passions for life.

The work she did around alcohol was really the door the spiritual deep dive she was longing for in all areas of her life, to align with her true values and bigger purpose.

She very intentionally, day by day, grew her emotional awareness that had been on the back burner, and hidden by alcohol.

She also realized a lot of the reasons she was drinking, weren't actually true for her anymore, she just needed to ask WHY?

Amanda intentionally made the work of unlearning alcohol a priority in her life and she expedited her results because of it.

The impact has opened up possibilities of for deeper connection in her relationships, new career, habits, interests, and more importantly, connection to self and this life.

Amanda's story is your story.

She too thought she would always want to drink, she identified with being a "drinker", and now, a short 6 moths later, it's the furthest thing from what she even thinks about or desires in her day to day.

Amanda, you are a rock star!  Thank you for taking the leap to change the narrative and being a trail blazer in the next phase of human liberation through SELF AUTHORITY!

From today's podcast guest and program client, Amanda, speaking to what was "freed up" from the work we did together:

"I think it's two things really, first of all, alcohol was taking up a lot of space in my in my head and it's not that I was you know, constantly craving it by any means it was just I was always negotiating with myself or trying to set rules or thinking about when I was going to be drinking or not drinking or you know, just it took up way too much space and energy in my brain. And then the other shift has really been a flow of creativity that as I have gotten alcohol out of my life I just really feel very open and more spiritual and just I feel a lot of things flowing through me right now. So those have been really big shifts and just that I think really it started with that just clearing it out of my out of my head and not having it be so like present and taking up so much of my energy I think that really just opened up so much space for so many other things to flow through."

You don’t need to be a previous version of yourself. 

You don’t need to be highly motivate. 

You don’t need to be excited about sobriety.

Getting good at not drinking is about how you TALK TO yourself, no matter what decisions you make.

You don’t need a morning routine to quit drinking.

You don’t need to ADD anything to your day. 

You don’t need to meditate more, exercise more, journal more.

These things create positive impact, but they aren’t necessary.

All you need to get alcohol out of your way, is to change the way you talk to yourself.

The conflicting beliefs about alcohol are confusing and EXHAUSTING.
 Something you once loved, is revealing its self as no longer useful.
The gap between being a drinker and no longer wanting to, is getting bigger and the conversation is getting louder.
 The narrative says if. you can’t hang, you're broken.
 So where do you turn?
 How can something that is causing you pain be something you still want?
 And the answer and solution you seek doesn’t appear to exist yet in the current narrative.
Until now.
 I know the way out and it works.

 It’s turning what feels like a BOULDER in your life, into a PEBBLE,
 and it can happen quickly with the right tools and support.

 It’s simply a shift in perspective.

 To shift from conflict to clarity.
 From pain to ease.
 From shame to confidence.
 It’s simple and it’s free.

In today's episode we explore WHY you can't seem to rest from this obsessive thinking and how to find peace through self authority, awareness and awakening.

The solution to alcohol is much simpler than you may have once thought.

We convince ourselves that our objections are facts, when the truth is, there is ALWAYS a way to take the NEXT STEP toward what you want.
It doesn't mean you have to quit drinking today, but you can at least decide what you want your summer to look like.
Do you want it to be more of the same, or a summer of adventure?
The greatest adventure of this life, is getting to know yourself.

That is what I want for you.
The opportunity to step into this extraordinary LIFE, fully, with out objection.

Today we explore the objection of TIME.
If now isn't the right time. But when is? And how will you know when you get there?
What will be the perfect program and the perfect opportunity?
You get to decide right here and now, this is it.
No expectations, just one step in a new direction.

HERE IS THE LIST NEW THOUGHTS TO THINK:
WHICH ONE CREATES THE BEST EMOTION TO INSPIRE ACTION TOWARDS THE DIRECTION OF STARTING THE PROCESS OF GETTING ALCOHOL OUT OF YOUR WAY?
PICK THAT THOUGHT AND STICK WITH IT.
SAY IT EVERYDAY ALL DAY.
I’m ready now.

I want to go on an adventure. 

Let’s see where this takes us.

The worst thing that can happen is I end up right where I am.

I’ve got nothing to loose.

What am I waiting for?

There’s never been a better time. 

I’m a grown Woman, I do what I want when I want. 

This is how I take care of myself.

I’m excited to be a student of me and of life. 

Coaching will give me the opportunity to be efficient at being human. 

Using my body and mind to the full extent.

I don’t make plans for alcohol.

Every Wednesday on I am offering a a live Q & A and discussion on Instagram,  based around the Five Shifts Process that we use in the Stop Drinking & Start Living Program.
I will be sharing it here on the show every Friday.

The compassionate witness is how start to have a new relationship to ourself and how we are seeing alcohol.
Often it is easier to be compassionate to a younger version of yourself than it is to your adult self.
Befriending your inner child who is having the emotions that need validation, is a way to start to befriend and developing a more intimate relationship with yourself.

When we are changing our relationship to anything, we face resistance.
When drinking is black and white, it's on and off.
Good or bad.
You can't see your way through all of the unhelpful thoughts your mind gives you about the future of NEVER drinking again, and why that is doom and gloom.
It creates black and white thinking, which has you going in one direction, to the past and moderation.
Either you'll be a drinker forever and you resign yourself to it or you're life will be empty.
When you use the process of the five shifts I teach in the Stop Drinking and Start Living Program, you create a rainbow of thinking.
You see, what do I want more of today?
Why would I NOT drink?
One circumstance at a time, you reduce your desire to drink.
You celebrate that moment and fuel your energy to ask again and again.
What do I want more of today?
Why am I drinking?
What is one thing I can do today with what I have?

Are on the fence about alcohol?

Waiting for the perfect solution that will make it easier, all the while, the habit is getting stronger?

The secret to changing your mind about alcohol is changing the thought that it's going to be hard.

This thought is WHY it is hard when you take a break.

Not because it really is.

There will be new emotions that are uncomfortable and unfamiliar, but you've done WAY harder.

It's the perception that it's BIGGER than a drink.

That it's BIGGER than you.

As soon as you stop making it about the alcohol, and make it about YOU.

Everything shifts.

You have everything you need to make a change, right now.
More time and more information is SLOWING you down.
It's keeping you stuck in INACTION.

Today you will learn:
-How you are making this change harder.
-What you can do to make changing your relationship to alcohol easier.
-How to inner resources the solution
-Skills you need to create the result
-Why taking your last sip isn't the first step
-Why "taking a break" is hindering you

It's building a new relationship to yourself that takes you out of your comfort zone, but pays off in the end.

The body just thinks it's hard because it's different. 
Because it can't SEE it based on evidence from the past.
But you don't have to BELIVE something in your bones 100% to know it's possible.

What you do need to do is get in the vibration of the FREQUENCY of belies, trust and conviction.
See yourself there.
Be that person.

Align with the vibration and stay there,
Mary

Alcohol as a catalyst for connection only ever allows you to go as deep as your thoughts that you need alcohol to connect will allow you.

Is alcohol creating more connection or just inhibiting your thoughts that stop you from going deeper? 

When we interrupt our limiting thoughts by dissociating vs. examining them, we never give ourselves a chance to move past them.
We condition our behavior and settle for the status quo.

What ultimately creates a strong connection or relationship? Is it bypassing vulnerably and discomfort.
Do you even have to start there or can you feel ease with connection skills you already have?

Today we explore:
-What does create a relationship?
-What is the catalyst you want for your connections? Is drinking no longer it?
-How you can use evidence in other areas as a focal point for connection in social situations where alcohol is present.
-How would things be different if we used being human as the only catalyst for connection we needed?

In today's podcast ep. #147, we explore how your Judgements and Conclusions are blocking the path to get alcohol out of your way.

Our judgments and conclusions about life are important to keep us safe, but if left unexamined, "safety", turns into a comfort zone we fear leaving. 

When we are learning something new, especially outside of the mainstream, we have to empty our minds of what we have learned and what we think we know to be true about alcohol. 

We have to dump it all out and the table and sift throught it.
Find some cute earrings and throw out the empty wrappers. 

Our snap judgements and conclusions keep us stuck in fear based thoughts, not trying new things and not giving ourselves a chance to see how much more fulfilling life will be without alcohol.

Unexamined judgements and conclusions in other areas, also create uncomfortable emotions that may be a trigger for drinking if you dwell in them for too long. 

We often seek to be RIGHT, VS, UNDERSTAND. 

Even when we suffer for it. 

When we are right, we are safe. It protects our interest (belifes) and our ego.

What would happen if you were able to empty your mind to see alcohol and life again, for the first time (but with wisdom)?
Seek to understand what you blame yourself for? The world for?
What you aren't willing to give up about alcohol and why?

Come explore the mind with me today and prime yourself for a new adventure.

Goals and Intentions both lead to taking an action in the present moment for a future result.

When you make drinking a tangible goal, based on numbers and rules, you aren’t getting to the root of the problem:
your beliefs system for alcohol.
then
When the GOAL is to drink less, you use more will power because you are staying on the surface.

When the intention is to live a healthier life, for example,  now we are getting closer to your WHY.

This is the ENERGY that will drive the change, indefinitely. 

As long as your beliefs remain the same, so too will your attachment and desires. 

Alcohol will always be around. 
You don’t have to make any hard and fast rules, you want to lead with your heart and the WHY you want to drink less, and then go deeper.

> For my health, but WHY?

> I want to live a long life. Why?

> So I can experience as much as possible. WHY? 

> Because there are so many amazing things to see and do with this human body. 

Now we are REALLY getting somewhere! 

Feel the difference from: I just want to have "one and done", to There are so many amazing things to see and do with this human body? 

It has SUBSTNACE. It has EMOTION. EMOTIONS are why you do ANYTHING. 

EMOTIONS are WHY it's hard for you to drink LESS. 

So change your emotions and change your results. 

Find out how to lead with your intangible goal, YOUR INTENTION, on today's podcast episode.

Doing it for the love,
Mary

One of the reasons many people feel out of control with alcohol is they think drinking "just happens." Part of this is true. 
Alcohol has become as habitual as brushing your teeth, not to mention the extra large influence the chemical of alcohol has on conditioning your behavior to want more.
However, drinking is always a choice. The question is WHY and how to take back control where there seems to be none.

In today's episode we discuss:

• Why alcohol just happens.
• Why sometimes are easier to say no than others.
• How to find the answer to why you are drinking.
• How to gain control where you feel like you have none. 
• Mitigate when it "just happens" by solving problems as they show up.
• How to implement these strategies as a way of life vs. just a concept you have learned.

Have you ever asked yourself, what about alcohol is actually FUN?
Why altering WHO we are and not being fully present is the version of the best time you have ever had?
Why do we have inhibitions in the first place?
What if we changed the belief that created the inhibitions vs. just trying to drink less, would you solve the problem?
If fun is a choice based on your thinking, why are we so stuck on alcohol being the end all be all of fun. We think without alcohol the parties over, but what is that saying about you?

I KNOW you know how to have a good time wherever you are, you just need to practice..

In today's episode we will explore:

• Does lowering your inhibitions really make something more FUN?
• how generating evidence will help you understand your REAL preferences.
• The process of planning ahead of time can create a new experience for you outside of the only choice to drink or not to drink.
• What the impact is of the third option.

One of the most destructive thoughts keeping you stuck in the rut of alcohol is the dreaded FOREVER.
Forever feels scary for most things, especially when you have felt so out of control. However, when you reduce your desire and attachment to alcohol, alcohol will ALWAYS be a choice, but you won't be making the daily decision to drink.
The truth is, it's not a useful thought when you are trying to create lasting change.
Making decisions around alcohol can be exhausting and it feels just as exhausting NOT drinking because you think you will still having all of those thoughts. Using my 5 shifts process to eliminate your desire for alcohol removes the need to SAY yes, or no all together.
Alcohol can exist in the world, and you can NOT want it. This is possible. Learn how on today's episode. Never say forever, ever again.

We are bothering ourselves with our own thinking.
Mindfulness isn't a one and done situation. It is a muscle you build over time. 
Seeing your thoughts as suggests for interpretation. 
Which ones' are useful. Which one's you don't even believe that just bump up against some uncovered insecurities or scarcity mindset. 

In today's episode I share with you a personal story of what I learned during a roofing project my family and I participated in. How the impact of mindfulness and The 5 Shifts  has shaped my life.  How changing my relationship to alcohol has given my the opportunity to explore every other objection my brain offers me that is not useful. 

On today's show:

• Why you should always question your objections.
• How to appreciate why other people do it different than you.
• Why expectations are not useful. 
• Generosity will never steer you wrong. 
• How to get comfortable with the scary unknown.

Alcohol is a symptom of unprocessed / interrupted emotions. Always.
Good, bad, happy, sad.
We have to have a new conversation with the sensations created by energy flowing through our body, all day, everyday.
Today I teach you a technique to use in conjunction with the 5 Shifts process to come into a closer relationship to your inner energy rather than moving away from it.
How to be with your emotions, normalize them, and let go.

I also read an excerpt from Michale Singers book, " The Untethered Soul",  that teaches us why we close down around emotions, intern we close the heart. We resist change and try to force our outer world to match our inner neurosis, rather than just change the way we interact with the world.

Committing to a process helps you solve problems at every level of growth. 
Today I respond to four different circumstances from listeners on the show.
I apply the 5 shifts, the E.T.A process and Emotional Intimacy to showcase how we can use the same tools for various circumstances again and again. 

What if committing to a process vs over consuming new information was how you guaranteed your results?
When we do the same thing again and again, we get better at it. 
This is the power of coaching with one coach, with one method. 
You know exactly what to do, what's working and how to fix what's not.
Today we explore:

• Why starting over isn't useful
• Supporting Grief
• What you say to your self matters the most
• Your challenges are your portals to transformation

You never planned on getting where you are with alcohol.
Because it didn't help you get to where you are.
For this reason, you know it's not necessary for your future.
It appears to be such a huge, famiar part of your past, that the future with out it feels like a void.
Alcohol is not a destination. 
It wasn't the big part of your journey you think it was. 
It's a drug that over rides your experiences because of the unnatural response it has in the body AND how it inhibits your memory to such a huge extent. 

Rather than seeing the past and future as black and white, look at the evidence, not just your conditioned memories. 

Look to your future as possibility of a trajectory, not a void.

What is it actually like to go through the process of 1:1 coaching?
The Client's Journey Of Awakening is the actual process of how we unlearn, learn and relearn. 
But not in a 100% traditional way. Not through the process of institutionalized dogma, yet by growing cultivating your awareness and strengthening your trust in your intuition.

We use principals of cognitive behavior, feminine wisdom and self inquiry through mindfulness practices.

Awareness, Education & Growth are the the steps.
But first you have to decide to say yes from a place of love.  Giving your future self a change. To your potential.  To not letting alcohol get more of your attention. 
You know what the truth is and you am ready to go beyond. 

We aren’t figuring out how to keep alcohol around. 
We are figuring out why it’s important in the first place and how to make it unimportant. 

Say YES to learning a new way. 

My clients who have the biggest break thoughts the quickest are intrigued to learn about self inquiry. They showed up and did the work because they said they would. They take personal responsibility and have integrity. 

They decide to get the most out of our time together. They are prepared. They take the plan we make, they implement it and they report back. 

You can decide to say yes and be the best client for you, by showing up. 
The first step is one call away.

Alcohol has a way of helping you forget & remember your potential.
This is the struggle. The screw it and the I know there's more.

The question to ask is : which one has more benefit?
If we move towards unlocking our potential, it will carry us down a path away from alcohol, always.

Today I share a little secret about why coaching works, that you can't get on your own.
Why it's a process and why accountability matters to make the most of your efforts.
What would happen if you went all in on YOU, like you have on alcohol?
What would happen if you OVER COMMITTED your self to the process of unlearning alcohol?
If you KNEW one day you would no longer WANT it, would you at least try?

Hear me when I tell you, emotional freedom from alcohol IS possible for you.
Today I share how I started waking up to my potential, when I put myself in a new room.
On my way to the Goddess Yoga Arts Retreat, with a bottle of tequila in my bag...
Focusing on becoming the solution vs. fixing the problem is the real shift in perspective.

It can only happen when you "put yourself in the room."

When you show up to build evidence against the thought: that a life without alcohol will be a life of deprivation.

Giving yourself a chance to AWAKEN parts of you that you haven't yet met, only happens when you trigger it through a new circumstance.

New circumstances create the opportunity for new emotions, new thinking and ultimately new ways of being.

And challenge our conditioned belifes.

Not all "triggers" are bad.

Coaching, sister circles, intentional family adventures, yoga, moon rituals, prayer, are all how I create what I call,  "spiritual triggers".

Our brains don't go that way unless prompted, naturally.

They stick to the negative bias. To the achievement. To the problem of "not enough".

So we have to intentionally place ourselves in new situations to invoke new ways of being, until they become the new norm.

I wanted to share about my journey of putting myself in the room to trigger the most sacred parts of me that were hiding behind alcohol in plain sight.

You don't need to do anything special to deserve everything you want.

You can just decide, I'm worth it.

Love,
Mary

Alcohol is thwarting your Goddess given magical compass. Your unmet desires, passions and KNOWING, is available to you through your natural cycles and rhythms.
Without aligned access to this, your emotions appear to be problems vs. powerful information to keep you a fully pleasured woman, from internal resourcing.
Don’t let any body tell you different.
Alcohol is a symptom of your unmet desires and invalidated feminine power.
I teach my clients how through the practice of Everyday Ritual.

If we accept our role as an integral part in the whole, we can honor and pay reverence to the space inbetween planting the seeds and the harvest. And the harvest and planting the seeds.

The rest, grief and letting go is a necessary part of the journey of awakening and finding who you are on the other side of alcohol.  Without it , you keep trying to put dead plants in a vase, hoping they might come back to life, rather than using them as compost to support your growth.

It's time to go all in and commit wholeheartedly.

Dr. Andrew Huberman, of The Huberman Lab Podcast, is creating a huge contribution to society through his passion for research and neuroscience.
In his episode on Alcohol and Your Health,  he goes through the current research on what alcohol is doing to your health, body and brain.
The results are in, nothing good.

Although the sciences over lap to help explain the entire human experience. What Huberman neglects, unintentionally, is the BIGGER impact of the behavioral and social science impact of alcohol, addiction and conditioning on the Human. Huberman's personal response alone, shows the listener how deeply accepted "alcohol as normal" is in our world.

We resist  " the things we can not change" about our relationship with alcohol, because we think it's US, when in fact, it's the alcohol.
Accepting the reality the alcohol is no longer suited for the life I want to live, is the first step in resisting change.
When you take a break from alcohol, you have to examine your why and what you have really been believing about alcohol.
If a break is only to "figure alcohol out" then it's never going to work.
If a break is to let go of your attachment to is so you can discover who you are, then you'll have plenty to focus on.

Enjoy the process of being you. Get excited about new experiences.

We often wait to figure it out before we decide to commit.
The opposite is true when it comes to creating what has never been created before.
Commit and go all in. When you decide a head of time, you don't set yourself up for failure, you set yourself up to think for solutions outside of the box. Outside of your brains habitual BS.

We have been conditioned to believe that if we can taste, hold it and touch it, it has more value.
We have been taught to look to the TANGIBLE in our life to make us feel better and solve our problems, IE: alcohol.
We invest our time, money and energy in that which is ultimately out of our control and end up disappointed with it doesn't work out the way we think it should.
Looking to the intangible, or at least the subtle, is where all real change, power, happiness problems and solutions live.
Think about the intangible investments you have made vs. the tangible investments and really see which ones have created more lasting value in your life.
Cultivating a tangible relationship to yourself, is where the money is.
Coaching is making the impossible real.

Getting alcohol out of your way is the next step in your spiritual awakening, that is why you are here.
Our lives are a sacred ceremony. Alcohol belittles the magic of the present moment.
Ritual is an opportunity to invoke the elements and the senses in the present moment.
When we practice being in the present moment we live through the wisdom of the heart vs. the habitual patterns in the head.
Living life through heart coherence amplifies our desires.
It allows us to be brave amongst change because we have befriended our emotions as powerful allies rather than problems.
We are embodied with our emotional selves rather than altering or invalidating how we would naturally feel.
Ritual interrupts the habitual reactivity to life, and allows you to place your attention with your intention, with grace, purpose and reverence for yourself and the moment.

What emotions don't you feel safe to feel?
Where have you been using alcohol in your life to create a sense of safety and security?
We judge our emotions and our unmet desires. 
Alcohol reinforces the invalidation by dismissing the thought and creating an all too familiar vibration we do feel safe in.
Unfortunately, this comfort of familiarity is compounding our unmet needs and lack of self security. 
Getting alcohol out of your way isn't just about not drinking, it's cultivating and inner resourcing the compassionate witness, so you can feel safe however you show up, where ever you go, no matter what you are doing. Start there by learning new skills and building yourself a safety net of self acceptance.

The main reason people don't create a new relationship to alcohol is because of resistance. Resistance to change. To a new way.

Dr. Joe Dispenza says to create an emergent (new) consciousness, you have to keep your mind, body and heart on what you want to create long enough for it to become a new reality. 
One of the main reasons you are starting and stopping again with alcohol is because your attention isn't focused on ONE solution. 
My clients are getting results so quickly because week after week we focus on disproving the thoughts creating the desire to drink, amplify their meaningful why, and generate evidence that supports a new future with new emotional imprints. 

My invitation to you is to charge the last month of the year with focusing your attention on your relationship to alcohol based on what was presented to you over the last three episodes.

Although each one of my rock start clients has their own unique perspectives, they still have human brains.
They are doing some serious ass kicking over here and I want to make sure you know just how SIMPLE it is to get alcohol out of your way,
so you can start to believe, I can learn a new way too! 
On today's episode I will share with you 6  secret codes to Deprive the urge and feed your future. 

Quitting drinking has kind of been a mystery until now,  because of our beliefs that it is a "normal" part of our experience as humans.
But that's not a fact, it's an opinion. 

These codes are accessible to EVERYONE, regardless of your past. 
You do have to show up and do something different. 
But...I have cracked the code and it's so much more simple than you can imagine.

Just like everything else in our world that we are awakening too, it's just a part of human evolution.
Don't think too much about how or why. 
Focus on the solution and the rest becomes unimportant. 

Just know there is a way to live a healthier, happier life where alcohol isn't part of your experience.

I have determined there is ONE belief that fuels our entire mindset in the western world about alcohol. 

It’s so powerful that is has you trying to solve all of your problems and create fun with alcohol. 

It has you overriding your own intuition. 

Shaming yourself for not figuring it out. 

Negotiating rules with yourself to keep alcohol around for even, just one drink. 

It has you making yourself sick. 

Fighting with your partner. 

Waking you up at 3 am.

Creating problems where there are none. 

Putting thoughts in other peoples head about what they think about you. 

Not doing your best at work. 

Quitting on yourself, again and again. 

Most importantly, it has you forgetting who you are, what matters most and what you are capable of.

This ONE belief is so powerful, that even AA put it into their big blue book.

They use it to help people quit drinking. 

It is actually the belief that keeps so many who do stop drinking in deprivation.

In my experience, it’s the ONE belief that is the FARTHEST from the truth. 

But this ONE belief is not a FACT, it’s a thought. 

And you get to choose to believe it or not. 

Listen to today’s podcast episode to find out what it is, what what thought you want to start believing instead.

• The ONE thought that has you and the western world sold on alcohol.
• What to do with your mind if you aren't drinking.
• Why constraining your attention is important.
• The impact of not drinking you are neglecting.
• How to create evidence from the end result. 
• The crucial ingredient to change. 
• How moderation keeps you in the same mindset that has you drinking.
• Why things don't seem fun without alcohol.

We dive DEEP today into reclaiming the "party girl" / rebel, as an exploration of the Wild Woman, innate in you.  How do you break free, let loose, wile out, without alcohol?  

Sacred Rebellion is regarding with high respect what YOU deem appropriate for yourself. Rebellion is against what someone else has deemed appropriate for you. Sacred Rebellion is not in a rebel without a cause way or a need to shame the other, but a reclamation of your own innate desires as an erotic women. 

Alcohol until now has been your source of "rebellion", but you're still drinking what their selling.

Today's episode will answer the burning question "now what? is this all there is?"
The fear that you will loose your edge and your wild side.
What you think is your only access to being bold and free.

Sacred rebellion is the recognition that with alcohol you were never free or wild.

Bonnie shares that she first started drinking at the age of 14 as a way to numb the pain of big family transitions, grief and loss. 
Sound that alcohol was always present in her adult life, and that it often consumed more of her mind than she wanted it to.

She shares that one of the biggest obstacles for her was asking for help, but that the disarming and supportive approach she gained from listening to the podcast, made her feel more open to trusting and letting go of her ego and pride. 

Bonnie offers how the container provided by the coaching program helped her to let go and move forward quickly in her journey. 
Bonnie shares:

• The practical side of making the program work for her.
• Tools for a life time she cultivated to get alcohol out of her way.
• How she easily "drops in" to her self, rather than checking out to achieve lasting relaxation.
• How she got to the place where alcohol is something that she no longer wants.
• How she moved through her habitual barriers for support.
• Shifting her self concept around alcohol and what's she's truly capable of.

Bonnie has been one of my greatest sources of inspiration for what is truly possible with the five shifts and just how deep it can take you. Thank you Bonnie for your presence, bravery and warn heart!

Did you know it's okay to laugh about your struggles and being drunk? Turns out it's  a solution to your reaching your maximum potential.

In today's light hearted, value packed, podcast episode #209, there is a lot of laughing, so don't miss it.

I interview my amazing client, Monica to share her triumph to accessing maximum potential.  Monica shares about how growing up in Spain and traveling the world as a dancer, alcohol was never even questioned as something you wouldn't do. It was everywhere, all the time.

As she shifted carriers to land in Germany with her husband and open her own Pilates studio, alcohol become more of a necessity that she felt controlled by.  Most days were filled with low energy and anxiety about the beautiful life she had created. 

She knew her attempts to do it alone hadn't worked and she needed support because she was exhausted from the daily cycle she was stuck in.

The moment Monica joined my private program, she felt instant relief: The day has finally come, was her thought.

Some of the topics Monica shares from her experience today:

• Opening your perspective and taking responsibility. 
• It’s just your thoughts and your choice. 
• The first month of feeling good. 
• Stress created by alcohol. 
• The importance of having a belief goal.
• The value of a coach’s support. 
• Knowing who your drinking companions are. 
• The first holiday she had alcohol-free. 
• You can change your beliefs by changing your thoughts. 
• The benefit of failure.

Plus so much more.  Come to be inspired, stay to create change.

Monica, thank you for being such an graceful example of what's possible!

Enjoy the show!
Mary

Today to celebrate the beginning of year four for the podcast and to share my thoughts on aligning with the future version of yourself that is free from alcohol.

As we celebrate this milestone, I want to take a moment to reflect on the journey so far and to thank you for being a part of this amazing community. I am proud of what we have accomplished and I am grateful for the lives that have been changed through this podcast.

My intention for being here is to help you get curious about what it would look like if you spent more time aligning with the future version of yourself that wants alcohol out of the way, that is ready for relief and freedom. I want to encourage you to listen to previous episodes and think about the wise and intuitive part of yourself that already knows what it feels like to be alcohol-free.

I know that there may be some resistance and fear when it comes to giving up alcohol, but I want to remind you that you are already free. The real part of you that is maturing and growing does not want alcohol anymore. However, there may be habits and thoughts that need to change in order for you to fully step into this new reality.

As I step into year four of the podcast, I want to encourage you to reassess your intention and realign with your values and who you are as you change. The question I want you to ask yourself about alcohol is how you can realign with your intention as you change and grow.

To celebrate with me, I would be grateful if you could take a moment to leave a five-star rating and a review on Apple Podcasts. This will help us reach even more people who need to hear this message and support the podcast to remain ad-free.

Thank you again for being a part of this journey and I look forward to continuing to support you on your journey to alcohol freedom.

In today's podcast episode, #211,  I discussed why confidence is a trigger for alcohol consumption and how it manifests in both short-term and long-term ways.

For example, a few days after a nasty hangover, you start to feel AMAZING in comparison. Your body has started to come back into balance. But rather than recognize this is because I'm NOT drinking. Your body and mind has associated natural pleasure with alcohol for so long, it thinks, I FEEL good, so it MUST be time for a drink 

However, when we apply the 5 shifts process to this moment of confidence, it can lead to understanding more about your real needs are. 

I also highlight the importance of being self-aware when it comes to the confidence trigger, and exploring the root cause of why one might feel confident in drinking again after an extended time away.

Through exploring this trigger, you can build new neural pathways and learn to meet their needs in a healthier and more fulfilling way.

• Understanding the confidence trigger is important in managing alcohol
• The confidence trigger can show up in short-term and long-term ways
• The moment of confidence is a moment of question and needs to be explored.
• People need to understand how they got to the place of confidence in the first place
• Understanding and exploring the origin of the confidence trigger holds the key to reprogramming the mind
• The addictive nature of alcohol needs to be acknowledged and the emotion needs to be allowed to surface in a safe and controlled environment

The present YOU, is ready for change. 

It's simply the past version of you that needs to feel safe enough to let go. 


Alcohol no longer fits the confident, proud version of yourself.

Using the 5 shifts process, you will align your perspectives with your values and achieve your desired outcomes.

Everything and more, 
Mary

The hidden costs of alcohol are often where many of your unmet needs live that make you want to drink more, keeping you stuck in a vicious problem/solution cycle.

The good news is, when you actually, start to uncover and meet your needs that appear as problems, the desire for alcohol goes away, AND, Mom's a happy camper. (we all know everyone wins!)

It's totally okay to take sometime on a Friday night for yourself to rest or go for a walk, rather than have a 'party of one", just so you can be home, only to postpone the guilt of not being with the family to the next day because you had a few too many.

These costs affect every area of your life.  Because of the amazing humans we are, our ability to adapt creates a new norm and the impact has become normalized, unrecognized and therefore unexamined.


The fact that you WANT change and you FEEL the imbalance is a great thing! It's telling you: hold on sister, We are NOT done yet.

During the episode, we touch on:

• The impact of alcohol on our physical health and well-being, including the long-term effects it can have on our bodies.
• The way alcohol can affect our relationships with loved ones, as well as our ability to form new connections and build strong bonds.
• The hidden costs of alcohol, such as missed opportunities and unrealized potential, as well as the financial impact it can have.
• The importance of our relationship with ourselves, and how alcohol can hold us back from achieving our full potential and living our best lives.

By questioning the normalized impacts that alcohol has on your life, you can begin to uncover the areas where you aren't showing up like the creator of literal LIFE that you are. 

Uncover the hidden costs of alcohol and expose the Woman of your dreams...

Today's show is an uncut, raw version of me sharing some intimate emotions of my personal life and the profound impact being a holistic alcohol coach has had on me and my clients. If you want a good cry, this is the place.

I read a deeply heartfelt share of the impact alcohol had on my client Laura, and the impact coaching and mindfulness has had on her life. 

How she is the hero in her journey, and how she continues to keep showing up for the tough stuff, but with alcohol out of the way, she has the tools for resilience and perseverance . 

There is something in Laura's story for everyone. 
Thank you Laura for your bravery and heart felt expression and thank you to everyone who listened for holding space for this heartfelt share. 

Today's Take aways:

• The next step to take after the podcast
• There’s alcohol and then there is life
• The power of allowing yourself to believe something new
• Our purpose is next-level
• Alcohol is full of shit
• What changes after alcohol
• This is why I do this work. 
• The impact of the 5 Shifts free training.

There's alcohol, and then there's everything else. Literally.  As my amazing client Laura shares in the most intimate and beautiful email to me.
"Back when I use to see out alcohol related functions rather than experiencing EVERYTHING  life has to offer."

We aren't doing any of this alone. It as as much my journey as I am here for you, so you can pave the way for the next person. This is how we make a better world, together.
All my love,
Mary

Does life feel like it's happening to you? Your kids don’t listen. Your spouse remembers nothing. You keep having health concerns. The god damn weather. 

Nothing how you would have planned it. 

But here’s the thing...

The reason you don’t have what you want isnt’ because life is happening to you. 

Your expectations have over ridden your intentions. 

You just like 7 billion people in the world want something to happen, FOR THEM. 

Try to change jobs, change all the external things, get all the medications and doctors, drink.
You look OUT THERE.

You neglected the root cause of your disappointment and suffering and that is your attachment to our expectations and desires. 

You need to take a step back and understand what your  intention is that has nothing to do with anyone and completely within your control. 

The 5 Shifts process I use with my clients aligns our intuition and intention with our values and what we truly want, not just to be right, but to be HAPPY. 

When we know the difference between out expectations and intention, we can solve any problem.

We move from Conformity & Confusion to Curiosity. 

You are worried about every area of change from drinking to quitting to the vacation that hasn't happened and the best way to that is through the lens of curiosity rather than conformity.

Learn what to do when your mind gets confused and how to uncover your own truth and genius. 
The only way out isn't by joining another group, it's by uncovering YOUR truth.

You are sick of waking up with regret. 

You want to feel good about yourself. 
You want the day to feel like an adventure, not a dull half existence. 

There is a spiral of shame and judgment for not being able to quit drinking, for drinking , for not being able to control it. The list goes on. 

So you start NEW things, add new routines, more actions and information to your already stressful mind.

How many unopened courses are in your inbox? (we've all been there)

But you take your overwhelmed mind with you and quit those too.  Your resentful of your husband who can have one and leave it, so you eat cookies and that makes you feel like shit, so why not have a drink and say screw it. 

The cycle begins again. 

Welcome shift #3 from shame and judgement me move to compassion. 
Be kind to yourself no matter what. Offer yourself compassion for being human and crushing it everyday. 

You must learn to you meet the needs of emotions so you don’t have to rely on alcohol to do that for you. 

Happy? drink. Sad? drink. Depressed, frustrated, aroused?...All emotions lead to drinking,  but what it’s really doing is over riding those emotions, not supporting them. 
It's invalidating and numbing them. 

You can start small. Use the words you would to someone you love. Start with something neutral.  Humans have emotions. Emotions create sensations in the body. This is normal. 

I can help you uncover the exact place that will trip you up every time that you think you can't handle and show you just how powerful you truly are. 

You need a plan and to know what words to say and then keep practicing.  

Apply for 1:1 coaching with Mary and schedule your free call, end the shame spiral today and wake up tomorrow morning, regret free.

You've tried to quit before, but always seem to fall back into old habits. One of the biggest mistakes women make when quitting drinking is just trying to forget about it and move on. This approach will actually strengthen the power alcohol has in your subconscious mind.

Instead, it's important to take your mind from quitting alcohol to committing to learning a new way. All of the thoughts about alcohol running the show need to be examined, and the only way out is through. You may have tried to avoid and look the other way, but this approach simply doesn't work.

In this episode, we discuss the importance of taking a position and focusing on a new self-concept. Quitting alcohol isn't something you can just check off a list – it's a journey of self-discovery.

We also dive into the benefits of seeking accountability and following a clear process, such as in the private coach container Beyond Alcohol. You'll learn how to identify those times when you are not making decisions from truth,  how to recommit and come back to your life intention again and again.

The first step in any commitment is a decision, and your next step could be to book a Zoom call with our expert. Don't let alcohol control your life any longer – it's time to take control and start your journey to a better, healthier you.

📣calling all conscious Women ready to evolve BEYOND alcohol and the need to seek alteration. 

We look at a new relationship to alcohol as an empowered change that meets our growing needs as women on our journey of awakening. 

Our authenticity in every moment is a gateway into rewilding and reconnecting with the divine feminine. 

Alcohol is becoming less of a desired way to engage and connect to self and in community. 

However, cultural narratives, habit and conditioning can make this a challenge to stay in alignment to your growing awareness of self and values. 

This can leave you feeling shameful and confused about the next best step. Create a new frequency this spring break. 

Looking to make the most of your spring break? In this 2-week workshop series, discover how to enjoy your downtime without relying on alcohol and learn mindfulness practices to rejuvenate your mind.

Spring break is the perfect time to unwind and create lasting memories with your loved ones. But too often, we rely on alcohol to help us relax and enjoy the moment. This can lead to regrets, missed opportunities, and a less-than-optimal vacation experience.

This workshop is designed to help you find true enjoyment in your spring break without resorting to alcohol. We'll start by exploring your beliefs around drinking, and then we'll dive into mindfulness practices that will help you stay present and focused throughout your vacation.

Whether you're planning a staycation or a trip to the beach, I will teach you the tools you need to make the most of your downtime. You'll learn how to go for a hike, catch up on your reading, and truly be present with your loved ones, all while feeling relaxed, rejuvenated, and ready for anything.

Alcohol doesn't make you happy, but you are stuck there. WHY?!?

The most powerful parts of your experience as a Woman is your access to your intuition, your emotional intelligence and the wisdom of your body.

Alcohol suppresses all three.

You know deep down that it's not all there is.

That it's not the choice of deprivation or moderation...that to reinvent yourself beyond alcohol requires liberation.

To make alcohol unimportant is the point so you can be at the center of change and your life. 

Today I share an amazing episode where I was interviewed by Gretchen Fox Palmer for her podcast Leading With Pleasure. Check out episode #4 : Pleasure vs. Patriarchy, show for some deeper inquiry into this topic of what feminine oppression looks like in our modern world.

F*ck forever.

Life is happening now.

Focusing on FOREVER has your mind spinning in a future out of your control. 

Without alcohol your first time out on the water this summer, your birthday and back yard bbq’s. 

Forever creates a void in your mind.

An empty space where alcohol use to occupy. 

You can’t even fathom it. 

It doesn’t make sense.

Alcohol is a grain of sand in the scheme of life.

But with a mind FULL of to drink or not drink, alcohol feels like a boulder. 

In the beginning, all you can focus on is what will be missing. 

So start here instead:

You know what the morning will feel like if you don’t drink. 

Take your mind to 12 hours from now. Not next year.
 

I wish I would have drank last night, (said no one ever).

Feel the freedom of waking up refreshed and order an iced tea.

Sit in the pride of doing something different. 

Learn the 3 reasons why I don't let my clients use the word FOREVER in our coaching and what to do when your mind takes you to a future nostalgic moment.
