Lose Weight, Gain Muscle, Stop Bloating, Have Better Sleep + Clearer Skin By Doing THIS! | Amanda Kuda
240: If you are thinking about quitting alcohol or perhaps you just did Dry January and are considering "what now"? - this is the episode for you! Today I have Amanda Kudo on the show and she shares her own personal story about quitting alcohol when she never really was an alcoholic to begin with, but she experienced so many health benefits including not having "crunchy muscles" (and we'll get into what she means by that), more energy, weight loss, better sleep, clearer skins, and so much, more. Amanda was only drinking socially on the weekends but she still wasn't feeling well which led her on her journey to cut out alcohol and experience physical and emotional freedom and how you can too. Even if you yourself don't drink, I'm sure you know someone that does....perhaps it's your partner, friend, child, or parent. This episode teaches you how to encourage those around you to take a break from drinking and methods and tips to go about that without being "annoying" or like you are stepping over your boundaries.
We also talk about some really interesting non-alcoholic drinks on the market including dealcoholized wine and I share my favorite go-to alcohol free store bought drink as well. So if you're sober curious, grab a drink (alcohol free of course) and tune in and walk away with empowering tips and tricks to living less inflamed, more empowered, and mentally ready to experience a non-alcohol way of life.
Topics Discussed:
What crunchy muscles means
Non-alcoholic drinks on the market (and my fav!)
How EVEN social drinking can be hindering your health goals
Tips to stop drinking
Tips to help someone you know try to quit drinking
The parent, child relationship between alcohol in the home
Alternatives coping methods instead of drinking
Why and what YOUR reason is for not drinking
