2020 was a year of extraordinary physical, political, and social unrest. It seemed like the dominoes just keep falling and many people responded by trying to numb the fear and frustration with alcohol. Going sober long-term may seem daunting, but alcohol-free is the best way to cope with this extraordinary time in our lives.
If you are drinking too much and want to stop or take a break from the insanity come talk to us. There is serenity in sobriety and you can find it in your own way. Join us for an alcohol-free month. Start with today. Just for today and start taking back your power. We cannot control the world around us but we can take back our own strength as individuals.
There has Never Been a Better Time to Go Sober … Join us Alcohol-free today?
