January is a time for fresh starts, and Jon Cohan and Abby Dean kick off the year with a bang in this episode of The Right Mind Media Podcast. They dive into the concept of Dry January, a popular trend where people give up alcohol for the month. The hosts discuss how this idea has evolved into 'Damp January', where individuals aim to significantly reduce their alcohol intake instead of completely abstaining.
It's fascinating to hear about the various apps like Sunnyside and Drink Control that help people track their drinking habits. Jon and Abby highlight how these tools can offer insights into one's relationship with alcohol, making it easier to manage consumption. The conversation also touches on the Surgeon General's recent warnings about the link between alcohol and cancer, emphasising the health risks associated with drinking.
They discuss how alcohol can increase the risk of seven different types of cancer, making it a topic worth paying attention to. For those curious about how much they actually drink, Jon and Abby suggest tracking your intake for a week or a month. This simple act can be eye-opening and is often the first step toward better control.
With a mix of humour and serious discussion, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice for anyone looking to rethink their drinking habits. So, if you're contemplating Dry January or just want to understand your alcohol consumption better, this episode is a must-listen.
