Alcohol – Medicine, Poison, or Beyond?

Alcohol is the most socially accepted drug on the planet. In Australia, it’s practically a cultural rite of passage, Friday night beers, goon bags, and celebrations where booze flows like water. But behind the laughs and the “liquid courage,” alcohol can just as easily destroy lives.

In this episode of the Not Another Rehab Podcast, we dive deep into:

🍷 The history of alcohol and why humans (and even animals!) have always been drawn to it

🧠 What alcohol really does to the body: from both science and Eastern medicine

🥃 Our raw personal stories of binge drinking, blackouts, violence, and shame

🔥 Why quitting alcohol can actually be dangerous without proper support

🌿 Tools that actually help: breathwork, herbs, Qi Gong, and purpose-driven living

💡 Why we don’t buy into the “once an alcoholic, always an alcoholic” label

This isn’t just about giving up the drink, it’s about creating a life beyond recovery.

👉 Tune in now, and let’s talk about the real story of alcohol, its medicine, its poison, and the freedom that exists beyond it.
