Lots of people do Dry January for a health kick or a tactical break from the booze - so massive congratulations to anyone who is coming to the end of this. I really hope you have reaped the rewards of your hard work.

For anyone who feels that maybe they want to go a bit a longer, here are some questions that can really help you with the decision making around what comes next for you.

For anyone doing Dry Jan - 2nd Friday night ๐Ÿ’ช Letโ€™s do this ๐Ÿ’–

๐Ÿ’ซ Get a gorgeous alcohol-free alternative in a nice glass or mug and make sure you can grab it when needed

๐Ÿ’ซ Plan a lovely nourishing dinner, your fave takeaway or some lovely comforting food - eat early because hunger is a big alcohol trigger

๐Ÿ’ซ if you are thinking of having a drink - pause. The power is in the pause - ask yourself the question โ€œwhat is it I really need right nowโ€?

๐Ÿ’ซ Practice meeting those needs, without having an alcoholic drink. It is ok to feel some discomfort, it means you are feeling all of those emotions with complete clarity. The discomfort is evidence that you are doing something different. This is a win.

This new Annie Grace book has just arrived on my doorstep ๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ’ซ

For anyone doing Dry Jan and wanting some reading, Annie Graceโ€™s books are brilliant.

This Naked Mind and The Alcohol Experiment both provided me with lightbulb moments, about the science of alcohol and how it impacts us physically and mentally, and also gave me an understanding of why I drank in the way I did.

Learning this, helped me to go from a place of blaming myself, to a place of understanding myself, and forgiving myself for developing the relationship with alcohol that I did. This understanding led to self-compassion which I very much needed back then. I carried a lot of shame and self-blame back then. I donโ€™t now. I have worked hard to release this and work hard with my clients to help them to do the same.

Iโ€™ll let you know what this one is like. We are reading it in the book club in my ongoing group coaching programme / alcohol free club and those that have it already on audible are loving it so far ๐Ÿ’ซ

I love this ๐Ÿ’–
