About this listen

Whether for yourself or as an intervention for a loved one, learn how to stop, or curb, the use of alcohol. Tom Wheeler knows what it is like to view life through the bottom of a glass of Captain Morgan. For over thirty years he has been a slave to alcohol believing that alcohol was fine and there was something wrong with him when, in fact, he was fine and there was something wrong with alcohol.

Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) is a disease. It isn't something that you did, but something that was done to you. The Magic Bullet will transform your thinking and have you adopting more accurate terms like "remission and recurrence" which refer to the disease, rather than "recovery and relapse" which refer to you.

Over four years in the writing and researching, The Magic Bullet is an "outside the box" deep dive into what works in contemporary treatment and what doesn't, and why. The workbook style will send you all over the internet to watch videos and read studies. It will refer you to experts, a movie and other books. But it will do it all in a concise way that doesn't waste time and adds a little humor. It is written for teens as well as 30+ year drinkers.

The Magic Bullet combines practical experience, common sense, the four cardinal virtues (Prudence Fortitude, Justice, and Temperance) and peer reviewed science to create an arsenal to help you stop drinking without being miserable. Learn how terms like brain plasticity and growth mindset can be used to reprogram your nervous system and help you conquer your triggers without avoiding them.

Learn the B.I.N.D ritual for dealing with the impulse-craving cycle and how to replace the fool's gold of dopamine with the contentment of serotonin. Find out what Post Alcohol Stress Disorder is and the damage that elevated cortisol levels can do.Stop letting people tell those you love they are powerless over alcohol. They aren't.
