The challenge that Rebecca Williams skillfully tackles in her book, Simple Ways to Unwind without Alcohol, is learning to take the edge off our day with better habits. This approach brilliantly puts less emphasis on eliminating alcohol, and more on integrating new behaviors that basically crowd out drinking with healthy behavior changes with lasting impact.”
