Description

PRAISE FOR GEORGIA FOSTER’S DRINK LESS PROGRAMME
‘Georgia specialises in alcohol hypnosis. Her task is to show us how to reprogram our subconscious mind (which has an effect on bodily functions such as the heart, lungs and digestion) to need less alcohol… It was a brilliant day – and it worked… My skin was clearer and I slept better… By the end of the week, my usual total of 40 units is down to a more modest (for me) 21, thanks to hypnotherapy… And the brilliant thing? I haven’t had to give up drinking alcohol completely.’
Daily Mail
‘[Georgia] doesn’t forbid alcohol but suggests you will need less. I appreciate not feeling destroyed next day…The brilliant thing? I haven’t had to give up completely. But I’ve learned one crucial point: it’s not how much you drink, it’s why you drink.’
Evening Standard
‘I don’t know if it’s because I have more energy and am more active, but I’ve lost half a stone. People keep saying how well I look. Yesterday, someone asked me if I’d had a facelift. I thought I needed alcohol to relax, to make life more interesting, to make me more interesting. It’s not true.’
Independent
‘Clinical Hypnotherapist, Georgia Foster, says about a third of her clients – mostly professionals and financial types – have alcohol related problems. “Drinking in the city is like a sport, although the consequences are swept under the carpet… It’s all too easy to get into this sort of situation – it can happen to any of us – and unless you
get help or sort it out, it can easily wreck your life.”'
The Sunday Times
‘For everyone with what Georgia calls “an over-drinking problem,” she has synthesised her treatment approach into a practical, easy-to follow book...’
You magazine
‘With a programme to stick to, it’s not as hard as I imagined… I still have cravings for alcohol, but have just had five small glasses of wine in the past 10 days – a huge improvement… I feel stronger and more accepting of my current situation, so there was less of an internal struggle and less of a void to fill with drink.’

A great idea for anyone embarking on Dry January (or anyone wanting to rein in their drinking any time of the year). Clinical hypnotherapist Georgia Foster specialises in overdrinking behaviour and her drink less courses have a high success rate (95% of attendees report reduced alcohol consumption) and in her new book she shares the secrets of this success. The book is used in conjunction with hypnosis downloads from the authors website and is a great tool for anyone who wants to cut down without giving up altogether.

I read this book with an open mind but can't really say I like it much. As a hypnotist, the author has some interesting insights into our inner voices but overall I'd say the subject of alcoholism was just a little too simplified.

I originally requested this ARC because I have a lot of nutrition coaching clients who find it hard to control the amount of alcohol they consume…especially on the weekends. I mean we all (or at least a lot of us) look forward to a glass of wine or two or a cold beer with friends, right? What I learned in this book is that you don’t have to be a textbook alcoholic to feel like you’re drinking too much. Everyone is different and I really liked the way Georgia Foster described the different styles of drinking habits that people have. For example, there is the person that is the perfectionist. So, when the perfectionist drinks it’s with everything he or she has got. It’s done to the full extent. Now, this doesn’t mean that the perfectionist drinks every day or even every week. It means that when the perfectionist does drink, they go all out. There’s also the person who drinks everyday or the person who only likes to drink socially or only likes to drink alone. See what I mean? None of these is wrong or makes a person an alcoholic. The book comes with two recordings to download. One is short and one is a bit longer. These are used by Georgia to make her clients actively think about what they are going to do before they do it and to condition them into eventually drinking less. Pretty cool, huh? I thought so. I found the psychology in this book to be so interesting. It was an easy read as well.
Thank you to Netgalley, Georgia Foster, and RedDoor Publishing for my ARC in exchange for an honest review.
