Elizabeth's story: "Dry January® gave me a chance to 'practice' not drinking"

Elizabeth | December 2019 | 1 minute

For Elizabeth, Dry January® was the perfect opportunity to try out what it’s like to be a non-drinker, and decide on things to do instead of drink. It led to the decision to try an alcohol-free summer, which was a great success! This is her story.

"I never considered myself a problem drinker, yet as I entered my 40s, I found that my body was giving me subtle messages that I needed to take better care."

"What Dry January gave me was a chance to 'practice' not drinking – to come up with other activities or non-alcoholic treats that would fill that void. It also gave me confidence in social situations as I sipped my club soda while others drank."
