Rob Lowe starts every day with gratitude.
Rob Lowe doesn’t drink alcohol and hasn’t had a drink in 33 years. He starts every day with a gratitude list. I mean come onnnn, what a stud!
Why it matters: Gratitude matters because it shifts your focus from what's lacking to what you already have, fostering a positive mindset crucial for overcoming challenges with alcohol consumption.
It shifts focus from negativity to blessings.
It fosters a positive mindset crucial for overcoming challenges
It builds resilience and reduces stress levels.
It strengthens relationships and fosters support networks.
It encourages healthier coping mechanisms.
Integrating gratitude enhances overall well-being and fulfillment. Seems like a no brainer!
Still Curious about his list? 👇
@usatoday Actor Rob Lowe is opening up about his sobriety journey, saying he hasn't had a drink in 33 years.
Wait, but why? 🤔:
Mad Men's martini meetings: Why did business booze flow so freely?
"Mad Men" shocked viewers with its constant flow of cocktails. But why the heavy drinking in a professional setting?
Cheers to a Bygone Era:
Post-War Prosperity: The 1960s ad world reflected a booming economy. Alcohol was seen as a reward and a symbol of success.
Client Bonding: Three-martini lunches were a way to loosen up clients and close deals.
Stress Relief: The pressure-cooker environment led many to self-medicate with alcohol.
Social Norms: Heavy drinking was simply more commonplace back then.
Mad Men's Legacy:
A reminder that workplace norms can evolve dramatically - and for the better at that!
Healthy Habit 🌱:
Fake it till you make it… well not always, but at first
If you embrace the practice of daily affirmations you will cultivate abundance, resilience, and gratitude, paving the way for you to up-level every aspect of your life.
How this helps you:
Rewiring Your Brain: Creating new neural pathways, reshaping thoughts and beliefs.
Overcoming Negativity Bias: Shielding against negativity, fostering resilience and self-acceptance.
Cultivating Abundance and Gratitude: Focusing on what's wanted, fostering gratitude and abundance.
As with anything, consistency is key. Daily practice reinforces positive beliefs, transforming your mindset gradually.
Word of advice: This takes time. You may feel like a fraud at first. That is okay. Fake it it till you make it… and next thing you know… you’ll start seeing the benefits in no time!
Proofer Products 🛒:
Is this really the best tasting NA beer on the market?!
Live look at you after your first sip of RationALE:
RationALE is quickly rising the ranks of NA beers. We highly recommend giving it a try as many of their loyal customers (Mavericks) are saying it is the best tasking NA beer yet.
The Bottom Line: RationALE crafts unmistakably great non-alcoholic brews that satisfy all your beer needs so that if you're not boozing at the moment, for whatever reason, you don't miss a thing. Since they launched, thousands of folks have been sipping, clinking, and crushing cans of RationALE.
Cheers! 🍻🍻
