Have you have experienced the loss of a loved one?
At my lowest point I was deliberately erasing my senses and my ability to think. I did not want to think about anything that was going on around me. I drank wine every single night to numb my feelings. It felt as though I had discovered the perfect tool in which to hide.
With alcohol gone from my mind and my life, I decided wanted to give something back. So I trained as a Certified Coach with the This Naked Mind Institute, which was born from the success of Annie's book. I had to show the whole world how incredible life can be without alcohol. Even after huge, life-shattering loss. Even after losing a child, parent, sibling, or best friend.
Right now, we are at the centre of a global epidemic. Alcohol is cheaper than it has ever been. It is more easily accessed than it has ever been. It is more heavily marketed than it has ever been. And these three things make it more insidious than it has ever been.
This book is especially for those who have fallen into the alcohol trap following the loss of a loved one. I loved a quit-it book when I was giving up. But there was nothing for grief out there for me. It is for anyone who has experienced grief, and decided alcohol is a great way to lose yourself. To drown out the pain. You may have only just started drinking, or maybe you have been stuck in a repetitive cycle for a while. Perhaps you have realised you are finding it harder than you expected to control your drinking.
I understand what you are going through. I am here now to show you hope through my stories, my experiences, and the tools and tactics I learned at the This naked Mind Institute. I am here to guide you out of the hole you might find yourself. Or at least join you, sit beside you for a while, and show you some alternative options.
I want to show you there is an easier way to go through your grief. It may even shorten your journey, and even improve it for you and everyone around you, as it did for me.
The issue, of course, is that alcohol is one of the most addictive substances on the planet. Yes, more addictive than smoking, more addictive than even the worst of drugs.
So, when we try to control it, or try to escape the trap, we find ourselves ever more stuck and unable to free ourselves. Sometimes we are unable to free ourselves until something awful happens, or until we hit 'rock bottom'.
I am here to tell you there is no need to wait until that happens. You can get out now, without further misery, without white-knuckling it or using willpower. You can be free. Forever, if you wish. And this simple guide is going to show you how to get the results you want, quickly, and without fuss. I have distilled the tactics, hacks and tools that helped me and countless others free themselves from alcohol, so that you can smash through all your fears and concerns. So you can start to live your best life ever.
You are not alone. Excessive alcohol consumption is a growing the world over.
This is book is for you if you want to do something about it. If you are tired of a few drops of alcohol having so much power over you and your life. If you crave change, but you are unsure where to start. And if you need support while you are still grieving your lost loved ones. You are in the right place.
