This video also talks about withdrawal, and safe ways to reduce/ abstain.
We will also review the idea of the "dry drunk" and why it's not enough to just stop drinking.. Remember, recovery is not achieved alone, support is available.

Using Screens Often?

📵 Tech Overload Is a Nervous System Issue, not solely a Willpower thing!

Chronic screen use keeps the body in low-grade fight-or-flight, tightening posture, shortening breath, and overstimulating the limbic system. Over time, this contributes to higher cortisol, poorer sleep, anxiety, and emotional reactivity.

Two simple, evidence-backed tools to protect your nervous system:

✨ Screen Reset Rule
✨ 90-Second Pattern Interrupt

Small resets = big shifts in mood, focus, and resilience.
Your nervous system wasn’t built for nonstop tech use, but it can recover with micro-practices like these. 🌿
