The phrase binge drinking is frequently in the headlines.
If you have not heard the phrase ‘binge drinking’ you must be living on another world as it is so often in the news. Most of us have on some occasions found ourselves dancing the night away having imbibed one (or six) too many Mojitos.
We live in a very stressful world, and each and every day our lives get busier, the need for escapism grows stronger. It is no surprise we turn to alcohol: visit a town centre on a Saturday or Sunday and everyone is out letting off steam, enjoying themselves. Competition between bars is fierce, and offers on drinks are getting increasingly competitive every week. A lot of people don’t see it as an issue, after all it’s just a good night out right?
So what would make drinking turn into a binge?
It could possibly shock you to know that you qualify as a binge drinker as soon as you reach for that third glass of white. The National Health Service believes that binge drinking is when you take in a substantial amount of alcohol (anything over a couple of large glasses of wine) in a short space of time. There are unquestionably a lot more people out there binge drinking that just don’t realise it. A hypnotherapy approach may help those who drink too much on a night out. It can also help those attempting to simply reduce the amount they drink. A hypnotherapist isn’t there to judge or brand you a binge drinker, however if you consider yourself as a binge drinker and/or want help eliminating alcohol completely there is help available. If you would like to have the mental power to turn drinks down or even replace rounds with soft drinks, hypnotherapy tactics could be the answer.
Why scale back on the wine?
If you have found yourself worrying about the quantity you drink, you might be ready to seek help. It might be worth trying to get help or advice if you have already identified yourself as a binge drinker and feel you could, or should begin to cut down.
A lot of money is spent on big drinking sessions – just think about the money that could be saved should you cut down? Just think about how few drinks you would have to cut out in order to save over the year. If you go out each month and cut out a few drinks you might be saving many hundreds of £££’s each and every year.
Then there’s the effect on our overall health. The dangers are quite widely understood; however, when we think about them in terms of our own health it can be extremely frightening. And what about how much binge drinking affects everyday life? From time to time we don’t realise how much time we spend nursing a hangover until we cut out the alcohol.
You shouldn’t give yourself a hard time over your boozing; it is best to look ahead and feel great for wanting to make a constructive change. Hypnotherapy for binge drinking can be personalised for your requirements, whether that’s simply being strong enough to cut down on nights out, replacing some rounds with soft drinks or getting rid of alcohol altogether. Your brain is the key to your success, hypnosis helps you unlock your potential and make more positive choices.
