DTD - Ditch The Drink

Twelve weeks to change your relationship with alcohol, with the science behind it so you can deeply understand what is happening.

If the 5pm crash has you reaching for a glass before your bag is even down, there's a reason for that and it has absolutely nothing to do with determination nor willpower. A drink usually is the enabler to calming your nervous system or escaping from it. From the stress that never switches off, hormones on the move, a day with no space in it for you, the overwhelm of middle age and time and the avoidance of hard conversations – it is often a maladaptive evolving of distress tolerance.

Ditch the Drink looks at what sits underneath the glass, then provides you with a road map for negotiating your way through.

Over twelve supported weeks we cover:

  • The habit loop and why your brain goes straight for a drink when things get hard

  • Your personal triggers and what to do in the moment

  • Cortisol, sleep and what perimenopause or menopause adds to the mix

  • Nutrition, gut health and movement and how the interaction with booze plays out

  • Values and the gap between how you want to spend your time and how you actually spend it – finding joy again and how

  • Boundaries and the people pleaser in you who never takes a break

  • Who you are when the glass isn't part of the picture – discovering and working with identity with a little application of behavioural science 

The twelve weeks are run as an alcohol-free experiment or break. Even if you are simply a grey area drinker, or perhaps a weekend binge drinker – it is about creating space for a pause and reassessment and starting to unravel your motivations to drink and deep seeded belief system around booze.

If nothing changes, nothing changes.
