1
00:00:01,800 --> 00:00:04,800
Hi, I'm Jessica Cording. I'm a registered dietitian health
2
00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:07,100
coach and author today. I want to talk to you
3
00:00:07,100 --> 00:00:10,400
about mindful drinking. So what is
4
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:13,400
mindful drinking? This is a practice of being aware of
5
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:16,600
why you drink alcohol and how much you consume?
6
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:19,400
You know, what role it plays in your life. So rather
7
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:22,400
than focusing solely on completely cutting out
8
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:25,200
alcohol though. You certainly can. This is much more
9
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:28,500
about coming to a place where you understand your relationship with
10
00:00:28,500 --> 00:00:31,200
alcohol. Think about how much alcohol you drink?
11
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:33,900
How many servings how often?
12
00:00:34,900 --> 00:00:37,200
Is it more about is it more than would be
13
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,400
considered moderate? So for example, what's defined as moderate
14
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,300
drinking is up to one drink per day for women or
15
00:00:43,300 --> 00:00:46,800
up to two drinks per day for men that said, you
16
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:49,800
know, we do know that even moderate drinking carries
17
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,500
some health risk. So some people benefit from
18
00:00:52,500 --> 00:00:55,500
drinking less than that. So what is it about alcohol
19
00:00:55,500 --> 00:00:58,200
that appeals to you? You know, is it the ritual
20
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:00,000
or is it the taste of it?
21
00:01:01,300 --> 00:01:04,400
Or maybe is it the social occasions that you associate with
22
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:05,000
drinking alcohol?
23
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,300
Other things to think about too are you drinking with others or
24
00:01:09,300 --> 00:01:11,500
are you drinking by yourself at home?
25
00:01:12,100 --> 00:01:15,500
And is it alcohol is something that you're consuming? Just
26
00:01:15,500 --> 00:01:18,200
when you go out is it something that you're also drinking at home?
27
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:21,700
Whether that be by yourself or with other people and these
28
00:01:21,700 --> 00:01:24,100
are just a few examples, you know, I think it's also
29
00:01:24,100 --> 00:01:28,300
important to think about how you feel when you drink, you know, emotionally physically
30
00:01:27,300 --> 00:01:30,900
both how you're feeling, you
31
00:01:30,900 --> 00:01:33,200
know, before you drink alcohol. Like are you turn into
32
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,700
a drink when you're stressed out? Because that's something you associate with relaxation,
33
00:01:36,700 --> 00:01:39,100
or is it something
34
00:01:39,100 --> 00:01:42,500
that you drink when you don't want to think about stuff or you're
35
00:01:42,500 --> 00:01:45,400
trying to process something you drink when you're anxious to
36
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,400
calm down all things to really consider
37
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:51,400
and then thinking about how you feel when you are drinking,
38
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,300
you know, are you feeling are you feeling good? Are you
39
00:01:54,300 --> 00:01:57,300
feeling like? Oh, actually I'm not feeling so great.
40
00:01:57,300 --> 00:02:00,400
You know, I'm feeling kind of like exhausted or my you
41
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:02,300
know, I get flushed I get headaches.
42
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,000
Does it how does it affect your sleep how do you feel the next
43
00:02:06,100 --> 00:02:09,100
day? Do you get hung over all things that can factor in?
44
00:02:09,700 --> 00:02:12,400
but I think that once you
45
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,800
figure out why you drink and also paying
46
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:17,500
attention to how you feel when you're drinking and
47
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,300
How you feel after drinking, you know that can really guide you in
48
00:02:21,300 --> 00:02:24,400
making mindful decisions around when to consume alcohol
49
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,900
and what to drink. So for example, you might notice that certain amounts
50
00:02:27,900 --> 00:02:30,800
of alcohol are certain types of alcohol impact you
51
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,400
in different ways. So let's
52
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,900
take one example if you drinking daily at home, and because
53
00:02:36,900 --> 00:02:39,500
you're stressed out or you notice that
54
00:02:39,500 --> 00:02:42,300
it's a ritual that helps you mark the end of your work day
55
00:02:42,300 --> 00:02:45,300
consider other beverages that you'll enjoy instead of
56
00:02:45,300 --> 00:02:48,800
alcohol. I'll often
57
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,300
I'd recommended to my patients and clients, you know, if you like
58
00:02:51,300 --> 00:02:54,400
more than ritual closing out your work day with a drink, you
59
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,300
know, maybe you have something not alcoholic but you put it in a really nice glass.
60
00:02:57,300 --> 00:03:00,100
So it still feels like a special occasion or maybe
61
00:03:00,100 --> 00:03:03,400
you explore some non-alcoholic beverages, you
62
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:07,700
know, or the alcohol is wines not alcohol
63
00:03:07,700 --> 00:03:10,000
distilled Spirits, for example, there's so many
64
00:03:10,300 --> 00:03:13,300
options to consider or making a mocktail just if you
65
00:03:13,300 --> 00:03:16,600
enjoy the ritual crafting a drink right you could look at other activities
66
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:18,100
that you might do instead of
67
00:03:18,500 --> 00:03:21,300
To kind of Mark that space and make Mark
68
00:03:21,300 --> 00:03:24,600
that end of day, you know work life home life. So
69
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,900
maybe you take a walk or you practice yoga.
70
00:03:27,900 --> 00:03:30,500
You meditate read watch a
71
00:03:30,500 --> 00:03:33,400
show that you like or do a hobby that brings you Joy. There's no
72
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,400
rules. It just really is about what's gonna be approachable and
73
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,700
sustainable and enjoyable for you.
74
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:43,000
If drinking is a major part of your social life because
75
00:03:42,100 --> 00:03:45,500
this is a conversation I've had with many patients and clients
76
00:03:45,500 --> 00:03:48,700
over the years one way to practice more mindful
77
00:03:48,700 --> 00:03:51,600
or intentional drinking is to plan outings with
78
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:55,100
friends that don't revolve solely around alcohol consumption.
79
00:03:55,900 --> 00:03:58,300
And I understand it might feel weird at first
80
00:03:58,300 --> 00:04:01,100
if that's really been how your group has
81
00:04:01,100 --> 00:04:04,600
connected, but you might be pleasantly surprised to
82
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,400
find that others in your circle are also
83
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,400
interested in mindful drinking and that if
84
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,600
you know you find that it does create a lot of strain and
85
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,400
those relationships, you know, that's also a really important thing to
86
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,300
consider, you know, do you want to be surrounding yourself
87
00:04:19,300 --> 00:04:22,200
with people for whom drinking is such a central part with their
88
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:26,400
life? I know that some heavy stuff to consider, but the
89
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,600
it's not just what we eat. You're not
90
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:31,200
just what we drink what we're putting in our body. You know Wellness is
91
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:34,100
really also about how we're spending our time who are spending
92
00:04:34,100 --> 00:04:37,600
it with and these are all really important things to consider around mindful
93
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:38,000
drinking.
94
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,900
I also should add that if you're finding this process really challenging
95
00:04:42,900 --> 00:04:45,200
or you're struggling don't have to go along.
96
00:04:46,100 --> 00:04:49,600
So I hope you found this information helpful. Again. I'm Jessica cording registered
