Cutting back on alcohol doesn’t have to happen overnight.
Start small. Decide what your boundaries are before you’re in a social setting. Find a nonalcoholic drink you actually enjoy. And try building plans with friends that don’t always revolve around drinking.
Most importantly, focus on what you’re gaining, not just what you’re giving up: better sleep, more energy, clearer thinking, and mornings that actually feel good. Small changes can make it easier to build habits that last.
