Welcome to the home of CLUB SODA’S COURSES TO CHANGE YOUR DRINKING

How to get the most out of this course

has been designed to give you all the tools you need to become more mindful about drinking over the holiday season. For some people, that might mean moderating or cutting down in some way. For others, that might mean taking a break or stopping completely. Or it may be that you are just exploring your options. However you choose to change, this course will help you get there.

However, we want to be clear from the start about what this course isn’t:

  • is not a challenge. You might have come to this course with an expectation of getting your drinking under control, or even taking some time off to rethink your drinking. But if you struggle through this course using willpower alone, you won’t have the energy to build a life beyond it. Learning to change takes time, so don’t beat yourself up if you don’t stick to your drinking plans. Focus on progress, not perfection.
  • is not a race. You can go at your own pace. The course unfolds step-by-step, and it’s OK to spend time on a particular lesson. You can access this course’s materials any time you need them. We are interested in change that you can sustain in the long term, and you can achieve that best by taking the time you need.
  • is not a quick fix. Just reading the course materials may help you understand things. But in our experience, you’ll get the best results from this course by experimenting with change. Use the tools we provide, ask yourself questions, try out new approaches, join the community, and share your discoveries.

Most importantly, keep going. Slow and even occasional progress is better than no progress at all. Always remember that the days that don’t go to plan are an essential part of your experience. You’ve never failed. You’re always learning.

Everything in this course is an invitation, not an instruction. So consider this course as an opportunity to explore, experiment and discover. is a gift of time and space, to learn about yourself and to create a whole new holiday experience that doesn’t centre on drinking.
