One of the most common reasons for drinking too much is doing so without really thinking about it. Accepting a glass of wine because everyone else is having one, or pouring yourself a drink at home every night, purely out of habit. Mindful drinking is exactly what it sounds like. It’s the opposite of drinking without thinking.
Every week, 1 in 6 of us experience a common mental health problem, such as anxiety or depression. Given that we typically spend large chunks of our adult lives working, it’s inevitable that our drinking, our mental wellbeing, and our working lives are all inter-connected in some way. We know that alcohol and mental health problems can manifest in the workplace and with the rise of flexible working hours and working from home due to the pandemic, lots more of us are looking to revaluate our relationship with alcohol.
This interactive webinar is an essential element of your wellbeing programme and is designed for staff who want to learn more about how alcohol can affect their mental health or for those looking to re-evaluate their relationship with alcohol. There's no lecturing tone. Instead we offer a positive space for staff to reflect on their current drinking habits and find out more about any aspect of alcohol they’re interested in.
So whether staff want to know more about the risks of binge-drinking, how to support a loved one who is drinking too much or what happens in your brain when you consume a drink – we can help. We’ll also provide some great tips for anyone wanting to change their relationship with alcohol.
This price includes a one-to-one briefing session with our trainer to agree the brief as well as all the aftercare, free access to our resources online, and access for your staff to our Try Dry app so that those who wish to download it can monitor their drinking in a relaxed, fun and informed way.
