Have you ever questioned your relationship with alcohol? Perhaps you’re a once a year on New Year’s Eve drinker or a daily drinker. Have you ever considered what it might be like to take a 30 day break from alcohol while connecting with others who want the same?
Yoga Olas is excited to offer The Alcohol Experiment to our incredible community!
The Alcohol Experiment is founded by Annie Grace, author of This Naked Mind. This experiment is a judgment free and safe space to learn about how alcohol works in our body and in our lives. It’s focused on taking a break from alcohol for 30 days while learning through videos, podcasts, or short reading assignments in the books. This experiment just may change the way you think about alcohol!
Join Linda for this 4 week offering on Fridays @ 5:30-6:45pm. Complete the readings and videos on your own, and then come together every Friday to connect, practice some nourishing, restorative yoga, and sip on hot tea! Each week builds on the previous week, but feel free to join us when you can!
April 14
We will discuss our WHY, the taste of alcohol, what we gain vs what we give up, alcohol and sleep, cravings, discomfort.
April 21
We will discuss willpower, stress, loved ones, how alcohol affects our senses, alcohol culture and how it’s shifting, sugar cravings, moderation.
April 28
We will discuss alcohol and our social life, parenting, boredom, growing tolerance for alcohol, depression, our attempt to fill gaps with alcohol.
May 5
We will discuss addictive personalities, set backs and data points, liberation vs fixation.
There are 2 books that go well with the experiment, but they are not required (there are also free videos that share the same information). If you are looking to just buy one, The Alcohol Experiment would best serve your experience!
