I understand from time to time that we like to have a "drink" with friends or a glass by ourselves to reward ourselves for our social contacts and the efforts we put forth throughout our day.
It's important to understand what your triggers are when it comes to alcohol and have alternative ways to unwind or socialize without it. For instance, activities like group hikes or fitness classes that provide social interaction and relaxation. This can help you stay on track with your goals while still enjoying your daily life.
Some great alternatives to "feeling" like you "need a drink" would include sparkling water with a splash of fruit juice, herbal teas, or mocktails made with fresh ingredients. These options are refreshing and can help reduce the desire for alcoholic drinks.
There is nothing wrong with having a drink. But, let's do our best to provide ourselves with the mental discipline that when it comes to alcohol we can always opt out and find pleasure without having to get a hang over.
