The Sober Survival Guide - How to Free Yourself from Alcohol Forever - By Simon Chapple. Foreword by Annie Grace - Author of This Naked Mind - Control Alcohol Are you tired of thinking about drinking? Hands up if you believe any of the following about drinking alcohol to be true: I cant have fun without alcohol. Imagine going to a party without drinking! it makes me feel less anxious or depressed; it helps me sleep; I cant relax without it; it makes me entertaining to be around; it fits the lifestyle of my boozy friends; I like the taste of alcohol; its cool and sophisticated; Im not confident enough to talk to new people without it; it helps me deal with all the problems life throws my way; it stops me worrying about how much Im drinking (ironic, I know). If you find yourself nodding at even one of these statements, then I know how you feel. I was a heavy daily drinker for over twenty years, I too used to believe that I couldnt live without alcohol, and that once Id had a few drinks I was funny to be around (hilarious in fact). Are you too are tired and fed up with the routine of drinking, and want to make a change and improve your life? Or you may simply be curious about how an alcohol-free life might look for you. Could it be better? Happier? Calmer? More peaceful? Perhaps youre already on the path to changing your relationship with booze and might have read other sober books or taken part in programmes to help you quit. I want you to know you can do the same as me and find complete freedom from alcohol, and that you dont have to wait for years like I did. Also, I want to reassure you that alcohol addiction is never a persons fault, and that theres no need to blame yourself for finding it hard to give up. It honestly isnt as difficult as you might think, and this book will provide the support, tactics and advice you need as you progress on your sober journey. The Sober Survival Guide is unique in that it is split into two parts. The first is designed to set you up for success and put you in a place where you can find freedom from alcohol if thats what you want. The first part of the book contains essential information for when youre in the early stages of controlling your drinking. The second part serves as a handbook as you move forward into an alcohol-free life and is where this book comes into its own. As you read it youll see Ive used my own experiences and those of the people Ive worked with to help ensure youre ready for the challenges, fears, and questions that will come up in the years after quitting drinking. Youll learn how to handle the work Christmas party without a glass of bubbly in hand, the joys of sober holidays, what to do when you stop drinking but your partner wont, and a whole lot more. With this part you can dip in and out, picking the chapters that address the problems youre facing that day or week. This unique quit alcohol book also shares my own stories and personal accounts that helped me learn (sometimes the hard way), so as well as providing vital tools and tactics it will also leave you with a smile on your face and provide you with a fun and enjoyable read.

About Simon Chapple
About Simon Chapple For over two decades Simon Chapple was a heavy drinker enduring daily hangovers carrying out regretful behaviour and suffering from a lack of motivation. Somehow he still managed to build a successful business and run 15 marathons but he was never truly happy and didn't feel like he was anywhere near the best version of himself. He knew something was missing in his life but he couldn't put his finger on exactly what it was. Finally it came to him: his love affair with red wine had become toxic and was no longer serving him in a positive way. This was the first of many steps towards finding the key to unlock a life of freedom from alcohol. By the end of it he'd found complete peace happiness and joy for the first time since he was a child. Because the changes Simon experienced were so life-changing it became his mission to raise awareness of the dangers of alcohol and more importantly the benefits an alcohol-free life can bring. Simon is the founder of Be Sober one of the largest and fastest-growing online 'quit drinking' communities in the world. If you haven't already joined the Be Sober movement you can do so for free right now by visiting www.besober.co.uk Simon is also a certified alcohol coach and has helped thousands of people explore and change their relationship with alcohol for the long term. He's spoken at live events to help educate and inspire people who are wondering what a life without alcohol might look like for them. He's written The Sober Survival Guide book to help anyone who's concerned about their own relationship with alcohol and thinking about making a change. To do this he's drawn on his considerable life experience and the experiences of those he's helped in order to provide real-world advice and tactics that can be used to make a positive change.
