Live Naked AF

The author of This Naked Mind provides a guide to navigating what’s next after you find freedom from alcohol

Annie Grace started her journey to sobriety by asking herself a simple question: Why was she drinking so much despite wanting to stop? Ultimately, her science-based approach revealed that she had powerful, subconscious ideas around alcohol, which were shaped by her own experiences as well as cultural messaging. Once she was able to unpack this programming and see how it was keeping her stuck, she was able to effortlessly change her relationship with alcohol. In This Naked Mind and The Alcohol Experiment, Annie shared her insights and ignited a movement, transforming the lives of hundreds or thousands of readers.

As Annie has experienced firsthand, life starts on the other side of the bottle. It becomes a joyful discovery of who you really are and what you really want. Live Naked AF helps readers understand their own unique programming and introduces a powerful framework for habit and behavior change called Affective Liminal Psychology.™ Annie’s approach is based on the idea that our habits are wired into our subconscious mind and tied to our emotions, and so how we feel about an unhealthy behavior is a major driver of our success in removing it from our life. Live Naked AF proposes the radical idea that we have the power to reprogram our subconscious – and go from loving alcohol to leaving it behind. You will discover:

• How to be Social AF, including how to handle conversations about your sobriety, maintain a fulfilling social life, and turn down a drink.
• Why your drinking, no matter how bad it was, does not mean you were broken.
• How the term ‘alcoholic’ may be causing more harm than good in our society’s battle against addiction.
• Practical exercises for processing emotions and developing emotional resilience without numbing or escaping
• How to truly, scientifically, find joy beyond the bottle.

This inspiring book is an essential guide to creating lasting change and will prove that being AF can create a life of deep happiness, complete freedom, and joy.
