Utilizing our holistic approach, encompassing both cognitive and physical health, the Anchored Abstinence Recipe™ program facilitates profound transformations.
We address three key areas crucial for lasting change:
1. Body: Biochemical Recalibration
The heart of our program lies in the recognition that biochemical dysregulation in your brain and body plays a leading role in keeping you stuck in your nightly routine.
Alcohol exposure negatively impacts every cell, tissue and organ in the body. This biochemical impact on a cellular level (at the cell memBRAIN to be precise) triggers the neurochemical signals generated by your brain and body-mind which create and maintain cravings, desires or niggling's for alcohol.
Providing your body and mind with the biochemical building blocks and fuel in proper sequence works to recalibrate your body-wide neural network, rewiring your neuropathways and removing the roots of alcohol dependency.
2. Subconscious Mind: Emotional Realignment
We help you examine your emotional connection to alcohol through private one-to-one discussions, intuitive insights and reflective self-awareness techniques including cognitive behaviour and cognitive dialect retraining which you will build upon at each stage of your transformation.
3. Conscious Mind: Cognitive Reset
This component addresses your beliefs about alcohol formed through cultural upbringing, societal norms, and learned consumption patterns. Bit by bit we break this belief system down and assist you in curating a new belief system anchored in new knowledge, ideas, truths, beliefs and the creation of new neuropathways.
We understand that sheer willpower, a 'Band-Aid' approach, cannot break this cycle and attempting to merely 'change your relationship with alcohol' through talk therapy alone neglects the biochemical imbalances in your physical mind and body, which keeps you stuck where you are today!
It's the science of your human body and it changes everything!
By addressing all three areas holistically, we ensure the shifts you make are not only enduring but also prevent you from reverting to old, unhealthy patterns.
Preexisting biochemical imbalances of neurohormones, neurotransmitters, neuropeptides and much more that contributed to your initial susceptibility to developing the nightly habit including things like, genetic predispositions, periods of low moods, anxiousness, stress, burnout or eating disorders;
Biochemical dysregulation brought on by regular and prolonged consumption of wine or cocktails that work in a cyclic pattern in the body—it's no accident you start thinking about having a glass at nearly the same time every day; and
Biochemical 'gaps' that remain when you have tried to take the wine or cocktails out of your diet in the past. Gaps that when left unaddressed work against you and cue your brain and body-mind to reintroduce the wine or cocktails. Commonly referred to as that 'little devil' or your '5 o'clock brain' telling you... go ahead and have that glass.
More than ever!
It is challenging for high-functioning career women to rebound from the stress of their workday with a calm mind and the energy to enjoy their life at home or an evening out in a way they can feel really good about.
Many women have found themselves stuck in the nightly routine of glass after glass of wine or cocktails to relax, quiet the chaos of the daily grind and demanding workloads, tune out the stressors of family life or chase away loneliness and boredom.
Whether they're having 3, 4, 5 or more glasses an evening or going back and forth from refraining to bingeing, a holistic nutrition & whole body-mind approach can help woman take the alcohol out of their nightly routine without leaving them feeling embarrassed, frustrated, or emotionally dysregluated.
