You are listening to the Take-A-Break Podcast with Rachel Hart, episode 350.

Whether you want to drink less or stop drinking, this podcast will help you change the habit

from the inside out. We're challenging conventional wisdom about why people drink

It really is so amazing for me personally, but it's just also, I think, a testament to the power

they said about one to two bottles of wine four to five times a week.

And in the last two months, she's had six drinks, six.

And each time she drank, she had one drink and enjoyed it and then stopped.

And not only that, found it easy to stop.

So imagine that, imagine going from one to two bottles to a single drink

and finding it easy to say, no more, I've had enough.

And this person, just so we're clear, they're still living their life, right?
