About this listen
Millions of people worry that drinking is affecting their health, yet are unwilling to seek change because of the misery and stigma associated with alcoholism and recovery. They fear drinking less will be boring, difficult and involve deprivation, and significant lifestyle changes.
This Naked Mind offers a new solution. Packed with surprising insight into the reasons we drink, it will open your eyes to the startling role of alcohol in our culture. Annie Grace brilliantly weaves psychological, neurological, cultural, social and industry factors with her extraordinarily candid journey resulting in a must read for anyone who drinks.
This book, without scare tactics, pain or rules, gives you freedom from alcohol. By addressing causes rather than symptoms it is a permanent solution rather than lifetime struggle. It removes the psychological dependence allowing you to easily drink less (or stop drinking). Annie’s clarity, humor and unique ability to blend original research with riveting storytelling ensures you will thoroughly enjoy the process.
In a world defined by ‘never enough’ Annie takes us on an intellectual journey through the world of alcohol and specifically the connection between alcohol and pleasure. She dispels the cultural myth that alcohol is a vital part of life and demonstrates how regaining control over alcohol is not only essential to personal happiness and fulfilment but also to ending the heartache experienced by millions as a result of second-hand drinking.
Finally, with perfect clarity, this book opens the door to the life you have been waiting for.
Recognised as one of the best books on the subject of addiction, it is a cornerstone for those in pursuit of a healthy lifestyle, integrating body, spirit, and mind into the recovery process. For fans of William Porter (Alcohol Explained), Catherine Gray (The Unexpected Joy of Being Sober), Allen Carr (Allen Carr's Easy Way to Stop Smoking) and Sober On A Drunk Planet (Sober On A Drunk Planet: Giving Up Alcohol) and Clare Pooley (The People on Platform 5)

Unconscious conditioning
Annie just hits the nail on the head.
I have listened to this book whilst partaking in Sober October and am truly amazed by the influence this book has had on me. Annie really does change the way that you view alcohol to the point where you just don't want to drink anymore.
This book in conjunction with Alcohol Lied to me, Craig Beck; has changed my life. I'm so excited about the future and getting my life back.
Thank you Annie! X

A brilliant book.
I decided to listen to The Naked Mind as it was recommended to me. I did not begin listening to this for any other reason than interest as I didn’t believe my alcohol intake was an issue but once I began listening I realised I would in fact find it an issue to stop having alcohol therefore it was in fact an addiction. The very fact of this recognition was enough to stop me drinking, I haven’t had a drop in 2 weeks in this time I have been away for a long weekend for my birthday and had no desire to drink.
I’m now just very interested to see if this lack of desire to drink stays with me. I intend carrying on, as recommended to re listen to certain chapters.

Even though I don't drink alcohol every day and feel like I need it.This book has encouraged me to be more moderate in my alcohol intake when I do chose to drink alcohol.

Excellent
This book had a profound impact on my view of drinking. I'm delighted to say I haven't had anything to drink in months and no intention to have any alcohol going forwards.
