If you want to change your drinking behaviour or not - this is a must-listen! You’ll learn a lot about yourself - for sure!Have you thought that you should drink less alcohol? Are people around you talking about doing dry January? Are you worried about the risks of alcohol and cancer? Maybe you don’t drink much but feel guilty even if you have a glass or two. And of course, the social impact is huge! It’s not easy to turn up to parties just sipping away on a bit of sparkling water - initially anyway.I’m so delighted to have invited sobriety coach and podcaster Danni Carr onto the show to talk us through what is going on and how we could make changes if we want to.This is a non-judgemental conversation with a compassionate coach. Here is more info about Danni https://www.iquitalcohol.com.au/pages/aboutAnd her brilliant podcast “How I quit alcohol” is here: https://www.iquitalcohol.com.au/pages/podcastEpisode Highlights:00:00 Intro06:45 Using old habits for momentary comfort.09:51 Struggled with alcohol, quit for 6 years.17:41 Moment of clarity led to life change.21:39 Avoid alcohol for long-term well-being and comfort.24:00 Prioritising self-care for better habits and wellness.27:26 Healthier alternatives for moderate alcohol consumption shift.30:40 Grateful for sobriety, seeing the benefits.38:12 Deep breathing reduces stress, improves decision-making.45:57 Let go of negative mindset for change.47:35 Pros and cons of drinking and quitting.52:30 Make a mocktail with Dani.About Dani:The Menopause and Cancer Podcast is hosted by Dani Binnington, menopause guide, patients advocate for people in menopause after a cancer diagnosis, and founder of the online platform Healthy Whole Me. There is lots of information out there about the menopause but hardly any if you have had a cancer diagnosis as well. Many people say to me they have no idea what their options are, who to ask for help, and that they feel really isolated in their experiences. I started this podcast because there was nothing out there when I was thrown into surgical menopause at the age of 39, which followed on from my cancer diagnosis aged 33.Through the episodes, I want to create more awareness, share information from our fabulous guest experts, doctors and other specialists in the cancer and menopause field. And of course, I will share stories from the people in our community.So that together we can work towards a better menopause experience. For all of us.More educated, better informed and less alone.Connect with Dani:Instagram @healthywholeme  Facebook: @healthywholeme  Website: menopauseandcancer.org Join Dani’s private Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/menopauseandcancerchathubFor oodles of inspiration, healthy recipes, yoga classes and all round positivity go to her website: https://www.healthywholeme.com/
