Breaking big life changes into small, manageable steps
One Year No Beer launches empowering programme of online courses and events targeting mindfulness and wellbeing:
Motivating people to change the world’s relationship with alcohol, One Year No Beer has launched the Live Life Better wellbeing platform, an empowering programme of online courses and events to help people break big life changes into small, manageable steps.
From reducing your sugar intake to surviving modern society alcohol-free and even embracing the benefits of meditation, each individual challenge has the aim of helping you make positive life changes.
Launched from 1st February, each course offers members the opportunity to start living life better, taking control of their personal wellbeing and working towards a healthier version of themselves. Hosted by industry professionals, academics, doctors and OYNB coaches, the easily digestible programmes have everything you need to make changes that stick.
Responding to member requests for support in other areas, topics include a Sugar Challenge, to help quiet cravings and satisfy a sweet tooth; Alcohol and Men’s Health, to help build resilience and self-worth without the need of a pint, and Mindfulness and Meditation, for those looking to restore some inner balance.
Available in 28 and 10-day challenges, each offers a tailored approach, allowing members to choose the one that will best suit their goals, current situation and stage in life.
“Looking at the role alcohol plays in our lives was just the start of the journey for us”, says Ruari Fairbairns, founder and CEO of One Year No Beer. “It naturally opened up the door for so many of our members to ask for more support with other aspects of their life and wellbeing.
“People wanted help changing their relationship with sugar, food, mindfulness and more and from that, the idea of Live Life Better was born.”
Besides OYNB founder Ruari, coaches include Carey Davis-Munro, a food and wellbeing specialist with a passion for healing yourself through nutrition; menopause and alcohol specialist, Kate Sansum who testifies to the 62 symptoms of menopause being worsened by alcohol and Dr Gail Davies, who advocates 10 minutes of mindfulness a day in order to completely overhaul your emotional and cognitive response.
Dr Gail Davies, academic, scientist and Live Life Well coach, said: “Mindfulness is a life skill that everyone can benefit from; practicing every day, for even a few minutes, can change your brain and the way we experience situations.
“Conquering our emotional response and making ourselves less likely to be highjacked by our own emotions, leads naturally to a feeling of being more engaged, present and subsequently, happier.” .
Prices range from £10 to £45 and subscribers will be notified when new courses launch, with Plant Based Living, Tiny Habits for Parenting and a 28-day Yoga Challenge poised to begin in the coming weeks.
