Dry January Support to Help You Drink Less and Feel Better
Welcome to the Drink Less Method — your friendly, realistic support system for taking control of your drinking habits. Whether Dry January is your first big break from alcohol or part of a longer journey to drink less, we’re here to help you succeed with personalised guidance, motivation, and practical tools.
We all know that Dry January is a great idea. There are plenty of excesses over the Christmas and New Year period that we need to get out of our system and detox from. Let’s face it, in addition to feeling better, we can all do with saving some money and losing a few pounds at the same time.
However, no matter how good an idea Dry January is, we all know that it’s damn hard to get through. The mornings are dark, the afternoons are dark, the weather is rubbish, and the month is LOOOOOOOONG.
Why Dry January Matters
And research shows: people who complete Dry January are more likely to drink less all year long.
Dry January is more than 31 alcohol-free days. It’s a chance to:
- Improve your sleep and energy levels
- Reduce anxiety and stress
- Reset your drinking routine
- Save money and feel more in control
- Kick-start healthier habits for the rest of the year

Discreet, Scientifically Proven Techniques
You may find yourself needing a bit extra willpower to help you achieve your Dry January target. This is where the Drink Less Method comes in. It has been demonstrated that taking just one tablet a day – branded the “£3 Pill, the Ozempic of Alcohol” by the Mail – can help you to cut back in December and to hit your Dry January Targets.
The Drink Less Method uses this system to help people to regain control of their drinking. Just one tablet an hour before normal drinking time will reduce the buzz that alcohol can supply. This is how the body learns to not crave more alcohol and it is easier for the individual to not have that drink.
