Why is meditation a better stress reliever than alcohol?

Here are my three top reasons.

1. It won’t take any money out of your bank account

2. It won’t leave you with a hangover

3. It won’t increase the levels of the stress hormone cortisol in your system when its effect wears off

What it will do is help you disconnect from your day naturally and put you in a position where you don’t “need” to drink like you did before.

When is best to do it? Many people meditate in the morning as it’s the easiest time to fit in it, but if you meditate in the early evening when you would normally need a drink, you will see that it can really help curb your urge to drink.

This clip is from the first session of the Wise Monkey Way New Year Challenge live group which kicked off on Sunday.

There is room for one or two latecomers if you’re quick – we have time zones suitable for most areas of the world and there are recordings of each session if you miss one.

Or if you prefer to go at your own pace, take a look at our Self-Study Program
