Journey to the Sunnyside | Mindful Drinking & Alcohol Health

Dr. Larry Freeney has spent thousands of sessions in the counseling chair, and he keeps meeting the same person: someone whose life looks right on paper and still feels off. He's a PhD counselor educator, a licensed counselor supervisor, a father of five, and a Spartan Death Race athlete. We get into why most of us can only name about seven of our emotions, how language changes what you can actually perceive, and what to do once you've named the real feeling under a hard day. Plus the small exercise Larry gives people to figure out which of their values are actually theirs.

ABOUT SUNNYSIDE:
 
Sunnyside is the #1 alcohol health app that helps you drink less without any shame, guilt, or pressure to quit. Optimize your alcohol habits to achieve benefits like sleeping better, losing weight, feeling more energy, and saving money. We know that an all-or-nothing approach doesn't work for everyone, so we focus on helping you set your own goals, celebrate small wins, and build a lasting system of accountability. As a result, 96.7% of our members see a big drop in their drinking after 90 days.

We now offer Sunnyside Med, a new program that provides access to compounded naltrexone, a medication that can reduce alcohol cravings at the brain level, offering a more clinical pathway for people who need it. Sunnyside Med is a complete, holistic approach to help you drink less or quit, including coaching, community, habit change, education, and more to help you create longterm change while the medication does its work.
