    289. The realities of life without alcohol in the early days with Chris Gimpel

    In this episode, Danni sits down with Chris Gimple from Clean Slate Clinic to talk about some of the things that shocked him in early sobriety. One of the biggest surprises was getting comfortable with boredom. Without alcohol, life can feel a little dull at times, especially when we’ve spent so long caught up in chaos. Chris opens up about how many of us unknowingly become accustomed to that sense of constant drama, and how adjusting to a calmer life takes time. Disturbed sleep patterns were another challenge, something many people experience when first quitting alcohol. Chris also describes what he calls the “lost puppy syndrome”—that feeling of not knowing what to do with yourself when drinking is no longer part of your life. But as the brain begins to reboot and adjust, things start to shift. He talks about the power of delayed gratification and how putting in the work leads to real, lasting rewards. Most importantly, he reminds us that change doesn’t happen without action, and that a relapse doesn’t mean you’re back to square one and that it can be a therapeutic tool. A must-listen for anyone navigating early sobriety or supporting someone on their journey.

    In this solocast, Danni explores the concept of experiential avoidance, particularly in relation to alcohol use as a coping mechanism.

Danni highlights the significance of emotional flexibility and self-compassion in overcoming avoidance behaviours, ultimately encouraging listeners to embrace their feelings and live a more authentic life. Danni takes the listeners through a simple breathing exercise to help with emotional resilience and to down regulate the nervous system.
