About this listen

From the bestselling author of This Naked Mind

It’s YOUR body…

It’s YOUR mind…

It’s YOUR choice…

There are a million reasons why you might drink. It tastes great. You feel more sociable. Sex is better. It helps you relax.

But are you really in control?

Whether you’re reading this because you know you drink too much and want to quit, or whether you just want to cut back for a while, this book is for you.

The Alcohol Experiment is a 30-day programme with a difference. Each day, it will show you a new way of thinking about booze, and ask you to look a little closer at why we drink, what we get out of it, and whether it’s really the alcohol that’s giving us what we want.

In the bestselling This Naked Mind, Annie Grace offered a completely revolutionary solution to dependency, and a path to sobriety. Now, let Annie give you the tools you need to understand alcohol – whether or not it’s a problem. Packed with humour, patience and the latest research, try The Alcohol Experiment today, and take control of your drinking for good.

Highly insightful

Really interesting to listen to this book. A mix of practical and theoretical approaches mixed with real life reviews. Definitely changed the way I think about alcohol

A brilliant way to rewire your brain on alcohol

This book gives a step by step guide to untangling the anxieties and beliefs around alcohol that keep us trapped in a love-hate relationship with it.

I’ve never heard it explained like this before and it has been a really enjoyable adventure taking part in the 30 day alcohol experiment.

Seven Months

I got this book at the start of dry January, and it’s now nearly August. I haven’t drunk alcohol since December 30, and I attribute some of that fact to this book, so I would recommend it if you’re looking for support in getting sober.

A note of caution, though. I did what I usually do with an audiobook, which is to say I popped in headphones and went out with the dog. The book is arranged in chapters to be listened to day by day, and I frankly wasn’t in the mental space to hear about some of the physiological effects (none good) of alcohol early in the month.

Definitely more conscious

You are wonderful to listen to and I am taking a longer term view on drinking less . Alcohol is my enemy and maybe I’ll stop one day but it’s been a tough battle to admit that and it’s really stuck in my head.

Fab techniques how to avoid “one drink” scenarios

Great explanation on how damaging alcohol is to our bodies. I thought I knew it all but after listening to this book I think it put me off drinking for life. Great listen if you need that courage to get healthy and more productive.

Life changing!!

Just what I what I was looking for, an adult sensible approach to reducing or stopping drinking! 10 out of 10 would highly recommend. Lots of these books/audios pretend they will help you cut down only to read it and it tries to guilt you into their way of thinking!! Off to listen to her first book now as think that will give me a big picture view over other things and how to take control of your life, not just your drinking.

Very helpful in my quest to quit drinking

Really enjoyed the neuroscience information as well the exercises. Each time I think about wanting a drink, my mind immediately thinks about how it effects my mind and body, which stops the ‘wanting a drink’ thoughts in their tracks.

It’s been 30 days, now I feel I can really stop my subconscious mind taking control of the situation.
Thanks Annie, you really are making a difference in people’s lives.

First ever successful dry January

The book really helped me to understand alcohol and my often tedious relationship with it. After a month I feel clearer, happier, healthier and I am managing daily stresses better. I am going to try another month to see where that leads me...
