4 mental health perks of cutting back the booze
Raise a glass to better mental health! Here’s why swapping that classic G&T for a just-as-delicious DD&T with 90% less alcohol* might just be the best decision you make for your mind:
Improved sleep, Ever noticed how alcohol can leave you feeling groggy and unrested the next day? By cutting down on booze, you’re likely to experience improved sleep quality. Better sleep means better mood and sharper cognitive function.
Reduced anxiety. We’ve all craved that drink after a stressful day for some temporary relief – but in the long run it can actually increase feelings of anxiety. By moderating your intake, you can help chase away anxious feelings and welcome back that zen.
Stable mood. Alcohol can wreak havoc on your mood, leading to irritability and even depression. Challenge yourself to drink less and see if it brings on more stable emotions and a brighter outlook on life.
Increased energy: Alcohol is a known energy-zapper. By drinking less, you’ll have more energy to devote to the things that truly matter to you. And if the thing that truly matters to you is spending time socializing with friends, then you absolutely don’t have to compromise on that. We’ve got you covered.
So, the next time you’re tempted to reach for that extra drink, think about choosing a low-or-no option instead. Take a bottle of DD with you and add to drinks wherever you are, or ask for a DD&T at the bar – your mind will thank you for it.
Cheers to being healthier and happier.
