Sober Curious
Sober Curious: The Blissful Sleep, Greater Focus, Limitless Presence, and Deep Connection Awaiting Us All on the Other Side of Alcohol | Ruby Warrington
6 posts | 7 read | 4 to read
Would life be better without alcohol? Its the nagging question more and more of us are finding harder to ignore, whether we have a problem with alcohol or not. After all, we yoga. We green juice. We meditate. We self-care. And yet, come the end of a long work day, the start of a weekend, an awkward social situation, we drink. One glass of wine turns into two turns into a bottle. In the face of how we care for ourselves otherwise, its hard to avoid how alcohol really makes us feel terrible. How different would our lives be if we stopped drinking on autopilot? If we stopped drinking altogether? Really different, it turns out. Really better. Frank, funny, and always judgment free, Sober Curious is a bold guide to choosing to live hangover-free, from Ruby Warrington, one of the leading voices of the new sobriety movement. Drawing on research, expert interviews, and personal narrative, Sober Curious is a radical take down of the myths that keep so many of us drinking. Inspiring, timely, and blame free, Sober Curious is both conversation starter and handbookessential reading that empowers readers to transform their relationship with alcohol, so we can lead our most fulfilling lives.

This was good. Lots of good info and helpful for anyone wanting to be aware of why they drink and how much better they can feel if they don't. She addresses the cultural pressures and is realistic about how difficult it can be to cut alcohol out of your life and yet how beneficial it is to do so. There is zero judgment-just her "boozestory" as she calls it and all she has learned.

I liked this one for the most part - I especially thought her ability to paint a picture of what life without alcohol can look like. She talked a lot about not judging those who choose to drink, but then veered into judgey comments with some regularity, so I guess she proved her own point about how hard it can be to not get self-righteous about being sober curious.
