  • Summary

  • How do you process emotions after years of drinking when you've spent a lifetime disconnected from your feelings? In this powerful episode, Coach Ellie works with Gayle and Christie, who both struggle with alcohol fixation but from different angles. Gayle feels constantly consumed by thoughts about drinking or not drinking, finding that fixation creates anxiety, overwhelm, and triggers deep stories of not being good enough. Christie has spent decades suppressing emotions and using wine as a "talking stick" to allow herself to feel things, rather than numbing. Through gentle exploration, Coach Ellie helps both women understand the path from fixation to liberation - recognizing that spiritual awakening often begins with alcohol freedom but leads to something much deeper: recovering our true nature and learning to be present with all our emotions. In Gayle's Session: Defining fixation How fixation creates physical symptoms of anxiety and overwhelm The path from cognitive understanding to embodied knowledge Experiencing "the magic trick": seeing alcohol's truth changes everything The role of data points in building new beliefs about alcohol How to process emotions after years of drinking through presence Recovery of self: discovering who you are without alcohol Why alcohol freedom is just the doorway to deeper transformation The concepts of true nature and soul edification And more In Christie's Session: Moving from fear-based motivation to emotion-based goals Finding joy after years of emotional disconnection The connection between creativity and emotional healing Recognizing permission to feel all emotions, not just "acceptable" ones How to process emotions after years of drinking through bodily awareness Restorative yoga as a bridge to feeling into the body Cues of safety that help regulate the nervous system The concept of "unf*withable" emotional resilience Moving beyond perfectionism The role of curiosity in spiritual liberation And other topics Related Episodes: Reader’s Question - Episode 634: How do you get rid of the punishing voice inside your head? - https://thisnakedmind.com/ep-634-readers-question-how-do-you-get-rid-of-the-punishing-voice-inside-your-head/ Episode 69: Allowing Feeling with Scott Stabile - https://thisnakedmind.com/ep-69-allowing-feeling-scott-stabile/ Reader’s Question - Episode 604: Embracing Your Authentic Self - https://thisnakedmind.com/ep-604-reader-question-embracing-your-authentic-self-overcoming-self-judgment-and-insecurities/ Ready to take the next step on your journey?
