The Dry(ish) challenge is being offered by Sunnyside, a mindful drinking app that’s designed to help people change their relationship with alcohol, as opposed to giving it up altogether.

It can also help the body recalibrate and go back to a lower “set point” of alcohol tolerance. “But most people will feel better just going from three drinks down to two and experience positive health benefits. “So if you decide that your dry January looks like a reduction in alcohol consumption by one drink a day, then great.”SHARE:
