Welcome to Responders Last Call by Forensics Found and This Naked Mind. One of the best things about the decision that you’ve made is this…..IT’S YOURS! This is YOUR decision., YOUR experiment. This is YOUR life and YOUR job.
Anyone can do anything for 30 days, right?
Before we launch into the Alcohol Experiment on the 1st, you’ll receive an email from This Naked Mind with your access to their daily videos. I’ll send you a daily email with my take on the video, from a responders perspective. I went through the 2020 July Live Alcohol Experiment… and then again in October, November, and 2021 January. Each month, I learned something new about myself and my relationship with alcohol. I think you will learn a lot too.
Right now, you might feel the same way I was feeling back in the beginning - I would tell myself over and over that “okay, starting Monday, I’m quitting drinking….” Only to find Monday comes and I’m having a glass of wine after a hard shift. Or I’d make it through a week of call but when the weekend came, I needed that complete and total break by getting trashed. I thought quitting or moderating would be easy…
As you journey through the month, you’re going to learn why it’s not so easy to stop drinking and you’ll learn that you are not alone. You’ll find out that it has nothing to do with having no willpower, but rather a disagreement between the part of your brain that got the message and the part of your brain that hasn’t.
My hope is that you’ll have an absolutely positive, awesome experience on your journey through The Alcohol Experiment! But just for argument’s sake, let’s say you go back to your old ways. That’s fine too! You certainly haven’t done any harm by taking 30 days to become more mindful of your drinking and you’re certainly not going to harm your debit card or your organs by giving them the month off!
