Happy Healthy Sober

LoveReading Says

“Ditch the booze and take control of your life”. The subtitle of Janey Lee Grace’s Happy Healthy Sober cuts to the core of a book that recognises the fact that giving up “grey area” drinking habits is an often-overlooked facet of many folks’ journeys to living a happier, healthier life. 

Kicking off with a reframing of alcohol abstinence (“Sobriety rocks! Being alcohol-free is without doubt the new cool. Forget any perceptions you may have of the sad ex drinker who ‘can’t ever have a drink’. You can have a drink; not having one is your choice”) and personal context on the author’s path to sobriety, the book is especially valuable in the way it seeks to show readers, “You can get the buzz without the booze”.

Then follows detail on the first seven days of going booze-free, and coverage of the importance of understanding “why you ended up drinking too much in the first place”, with the framework of a thirty-day challenge providing readers with something tangible to work towards. Also offering suggestions for setting goals, and using the likes of vision boards and journaling to keep yourself on track, Happy Healthy Sober will most likely come as a beacon of booze-free hope for anyone who’s looking to ditch unhealthy drinking habits as part of a holistic suite of life changes.
