EP 260: Reader Question - Why does change feel impossible?

Published: March 7, 2020, 7:30 a.m.

On today\u2019s episode, a reader says, \u201cI can\u2019t even imagine changing. It seems impossible. I\u2019ve been drinking for decades.\u201d When we think about life without something, like alcohol, we\u2019re actually telling our brain it\u2019s even more important than we already think it is. But, what is it that really makes change feel so out of reach? Do we need to believe it\u2019s possible before we even try? And, when does change start to feel possible? Annie Grace explores.\n Are you looking to connect with like-minded people? Sometimes maybe you feel like you have all this information from doing This Naked Mind or The Alcohol Experiment, but you\u2019re living in a world where people don\u2019t speak your language.\n That is why I created The Exchange. The Exchange from This Naked Mind is an online community where we meet face to face, live with video calls multiple times a week with people from all over the world just to connect and have somewhere that you are seen, you are heard, and you feel less alone.\xa0 A place where you can really give back and get the support you need. If this sounds great to you, check it out at www.thisnakedmind.com/exchange.\n And as always, rate, review, and subscribe to this podcast, as it truly helps the message reach somebody who might need to hear it today.
