Surf the Urge — What to Do When a Craving Hits
Includes your three-step framework for riding out any craving
You’re inside The Vault - the place where all the theory and mindset work that we do together on the podcast and in the articles gets put into action.
TLDR: Scroll to the bottom of the post, or upgrade to The Vault, to download your Surf the Urge tool.
Is this normal?
In Reduce, Replace... and Then What? we look at the three R’s of mindful drinking, and in ep#169. 20 Small Shifts That Changed How I Drink (5 Years In) I share 20 tips that have helped me change my drinking habits for good.
Topics like these matter because no matter how well-intentioned we are with our drinking choices, cravings (and nostalgia) will always poke their beaky noses in where they are not wanted.
It’s important that you know that that is normal, and definitely not something to beat yourself up over.
Your Vault Tool
When you need a little help in managing those moments, Surf the Urge helps you to:
Recognise it for what it really is (hint: it’s not actually about the alcohol)
Ride it out until it naturally passes
Replace it with something else
You’ll get a printable chart to help you keep track of what actually works for YOU when different cravings strike.
