Thrive Alcohol Free Podcast with Alex McRobs
In today's episode, we talk all things alcohol free with Alex McRobert, Sober Yoga Girl! Alex tells her story, talks about how she became alcohol free and all the exciting things she's done since.
If you are worried about maintaining sobriety while traveling, I understand where you’re coming from. Sober Travel can be daunting in the beginning, but there are so many incredible places offering sober retreats and planned trips to support you on your sobriety journey! I’ve been living in Bali for the past two months, and I’m excited to share some of the best sober travel retreats that Bali has to offer in this blog post. Bali is the perfect destination for the sober traveler, because of its deep spiritual lineage and reverence for the divine. It’s a place that is rooted in spirituality and such a humble ground for self discovery. It is one of my top destinations for sober travelers and the dream location for the sober yogi.
In this episode, Sophia is joined by Alex McRobs who is the owner of The Mindful Life Practice and host of Sober Yoga Girl podcast. She is a certified life coach and a 500-hour registered yoga teacher. When she went sober, she connected with others online, which, during the pandemic, evolved into the sober yoga community. She now also runs yoga retreats across the world. Alex explains what made her decide to go sober and why giving up alcohol turned out to be harder than she had anticipated. Sharing how she coped with the withdrawal symptoms, the role yoga has helped her with her journey and finding the courage to give up teaching to go and pursue her dream.

Raemona Magazine - How Yoga Can Change Your Life
When I was ten years old, I was innately drawn to yoga as an extracurricular at school. I remember flipping through the pamphlet of “After Four” activities offered and being so excited when I came across yoga. I convinced my mom to let me sign up.
I don’t remember the asanas themselves – what I remember was savasana. At the end of the class, I remember lying down on our backs, the room becoming dark and us closing our eyes, and the yoga teacher leading us to imagine floating on clouds. It felt serene and peaceful.
What I loved about it was that while practising, my turbulent brain felt calm and still, for the first time ever

Vacayou Magazine (US) - What’s Driving the Sober Curious Movement? Wellness!
Alex admits she was a party girl ever since she was a teenager. At 23, she moved to Kuwait, which is a dry country. It was there that she became obsessed with learning how to make her own booze, networking with others who could get her booze, and blow-out weekends away in cities like Dubai, where alcohol is free-flowing and legal.
“I moved to Abu Dhabi when I was 25 because I thought the solution to my unhappiness was to move to a country where alcohol was legal. It was from there I slid down the drinking problems scale further and faster than I wanted to,” says Alex.... Read Here

Alexandra McRobert, known as “Sober Yoga Girl”, is a former party girl turned international yoga teacher and sober lifestyle coach, and host of the Sober Yoga Girl podcast. She also believes that periods of abstinence like Dry January “can be an absolutely amazing way to get curious about sobriety – without committing to ‘forever’.” Yet she admits that, in her case, this is exactly what ended up happening. “I did a 28 day challenge,” McRobert says. “It transformed my life in such a positive way, that I decided to stay sober forever – and never went back!” Now, McRobert knows “plenty of people who ended up sober the same way [she] did – by taking a break that turned into a lifestyle change.”....

High Vibe Health Podcast with Shanna Toft - Interview With Alex McRoberts - Owner/Founder of The Mindful Life Practice, International Yoga Teacher, Podcast Host of Sober Yoga Girl, Yoga Retreat Host & So Much More!
Founder of The Mindful Life Practice and Host of the Sober Yoga Girl Podcast
Alex McRobs (Sober Yoga Girl) has made it her mission to help women around the world quit drinking - and stay sober - through the practice of yoga.
Alex is a Canadian former grade one teacher in Abu Dhabi. She got deep into the brunches and ladies night expat culture in the UAE.
In 2019 at age twenty-seven, she finally stopped drinking alcohol - what initially started as a 28-day-challenge turned into a permanent lifestyle change.
While quitting drinking itself was a massive challenge - once she got through the early days of sobriety, she realized that she was so much happier alcohol free. But she got sober alone - and found that she was missing community, connection, and spirituality on her sober journey - which is what led her to create The Mindful Life Practice.... Listen Here

The Soulful Savvy Sister Podcast - S2E3 - Sober Yoga Girl - What is your relationship with alcohol?
This week I am speaking with Alex McCrobs aka. Sober Yoga Girl- Our discussion centred heavily on alcohol, where we discussed Alex's relationship with alcohol throughout her life and the varying factors that influenced that relationship, including her environment and the people she surrounded herself with. As someone who has had to adjust her relationship with alcohol, I felt it important to bring attention to the impact it can have when we overindulge. Often we 'normalize' the amount we drink because those around us drink the same, but this does not guarantee that we have a 'healthy' relationship with alcohol. Often our mood and other aspects of our life can be unknowingly impacted by how much we drink. While Alex quit alcohol entirely, I like to minimise my intake to a healthy level- everyone's experiences and choices are different, but we must do what suits us and works for us within our lives. Since adjusting her relationship with alcohol, Alex has since created her own community and business, both of which centre on that which she's most passionate about- yoga. By locating herself in Bali, she has succeeded in creating an environment and a circle of people suited to her newfound love for life. We also touched briefly on Alex's experience with bipolar and various habits she has incorporated every day to minimize its effect on her- Check it out and give it a listen.

Don't Touch My Mindset by Jay Chase - Pivotal Moments. Finding Purpose W/ Alex McRobert
Finding your purpose and meaning in life will help you transition to a life-long recovery and sobriety. A purpose might be an activity, self-improvement goal, or an impactful pursuit, and it’s a great way to avoid a relapse. Addiction is a symptom of something wrong and a lack of purpose in life. It is an attempt to fill the void with something that makes us feel alive. However, drugs are just a coping mechanism and will impact your ability to find meaning in life, leading you to self-destruction. Becoming sober and finding meaning in your life is pivotal. Anyone who has gone through sobriety breakthroughs can attest to that. Finding out why you’re here is the key to overcoming addiction and living a sober life. Anything is possible when you are sober!... Listen Here

The Mindful Life Practice: Teacher Interview #10: Alex
Meet Alex. The founder and creator of our platform. She had the idea of teaching yoga online for awhile but found that some platforms lack something. Back in March of 2020, Alex was going through a tough time. Just got out of a relationship, parted ways with her studio where she used to teach yoga, as well as having to go into lockdown because of Covid-19 pandemic away from home and family. In a way, the world was somehow colliding for something to happen. On March 19th, she invited some of her friends and family across social media to join her for a virtual Vinyasa style of yoga (her signature) as a way to come together and reconnect again. And thus, the Mindful Life Practice Community (MLPC) finally came to its creation. Read More
