These popular mindfulness-based workshops are for those who fall into the cracks between “alcoholic” and “normal” drinker, who are concerned about their drinking but feel they don’t belong in a traditional abstinence-only recovery program. Drinking less is a viable & achievable goal for many!

Learn a Harm Reduction* approach to reducing drinking habits, dismantling the Habit Loop through:
Mindful Drinking
Self Hypnosis
Urge Surfing (Riding the waves of cravings)
Guided Meditations & Self-Friendliness Practices (Because beating oneself up can feed directly back into the habit loop 🙃 )
Taming the Inner Critic
Working with the Inner Negotiator (the one who shows up after you’ve decided whether and/or how much you’re going to drink)
Stress Reduction Tools
Somatic Experiencing (Tuning in to the emotional body, key to emotional regulation and stress reduction)
Goal setting, peer support & accountability.
Includes free audio recordings of guided meditations, hypnosis, and urge surfing.
This program works best if you can devote 15-20 minutes a day to the home practices, plus daily check-ins with assigned partners. Please be prepared to show up fully for yourself and your colleagues by quitting text, apps, etc during class time!)
*Harm Reduction empowers the client to determine their own path and outcome, whether it be drinking reduction or abstinence. The stress reduction tools offered here can be applied not just to drinking but to all areas of life.
