Hello, my chickens. It's time for more chicken questions. I keep thinking we're done

but then of course I get more questions and I've heard from a lot of you about how

helpful these are so I'm just gonna keep interspersing them as we go along.

All right let's dive in.

Hi Kara I should say that I love your podcast I've recommended it to several friends.

Well thank you. Appreciate all of you who share the podcast love.

Okay, here's the question.

I'm four months postpartum and feel that your guidance on thought work has really helped me to feel balanced and level

headed even despite having a major life change.

On to my question.

I like to have an occasional glass of wine or two here and there and find it harder to manage my mind after drinking just a few

glasses of wine. It's like I get tired and so does my brain so it wants to go on

autopilot. Is this common? I like to enjoy wine here and there, but I'm starting to think it's not worth it.

Yeah, I think that that's absolutely common. Of course, it's harder to manage our mind when we have put

in toxicating substances into our body.

Now, I don't have a position that it's good or bad.

You just need to know that that's going to happen.
