BITESIZE | The Surprising Benefits of Taking a Break From Alcohol | Andy Ramage

by Dr. Rangan Chatterjee   /  January 15, 2021

Could giving up alcohol really change your life? Whilst some of us may currently be alcohol free for Dry January, many of us have haven’t given our drinking habits much thought. We often look at improving our diet and moving more but is alcohol the elephant in the room that could be holding us back?

Feel Better Live More Bitesize is my new weekly podcast for your mind, body and heart.  Each week I’ll be featuring inspirational stories and practical tips from some of my former guests.

Today’s guest is performance coach and author Andy Ramage.  Andy is co-founder of the habit-changing program One Year No Beer that invites people to try 28, 90 or 365 days alcohol free. He believes it’s possible to become the most productive, present and healthiest version of yourself just by making this one change.

We discuss how alcohol is linked to many parts of our lives and why Andy described himself as a ‘middle lane drinker’ before he gave up alcohol 6 years ago.  He explains why taking a tactical break from alcohol could bring a surprising host of benefits and how his own experience changed his life.

Andy believes the greatest discovery you’ll ever make is your authentic self and that by removing alcohol you allow yourself the chance to be you again. 

What could be more powerful than that?
