SOBER OCTOBER FOR MACMILLAN CANCER TRUST


sober october with La Maison Wellness

This might be what you’ve been waiting for?!

We’ve all had times when we need to re-centre our balance and yet we wait for a reason to act, or perhaps need a little help to get started. Well Healthy Hedonists, you’re in luck because it’s October and in October we go Sober with Macmillan Cancer Trust! The perfect opportunity to readdress your balance, whilst raising awareness & funds for a good cause.

Sober October is a fantastic initiative to rejig the nation’s attitudes towards drinking and raise money for charity, which has been gaining momentum for a couple of years now; this month will see thousands attempt to ‘give up’ alcohol before the usual decadences of the holiday season.

What does Sober October mean to you?

For some, going cold turkey doesn’t work & better balance is found in moderation! Whether you want to cut out or cut down, we’ve got you covered with all the delicious Mindful Cocktails. No one should have to spend the month drinking water and thinking mindful drinking is boring! The absence or reduction of alcohol should be an ADDITION rather than a loss! With more clarity, better sleep, earlier mornings and greater overall health. So let La Maison Wellness show you a new way to drink and you will discover that tasty doesn’t have to be boozy!

You do you! 

As always at La Maison Wellness we like to challenge the lexicon around drinking & what it means to be “mindful” about alcohol and we support all of you Healthy Hedonists on your journey as a mindful drinker. You may have tried in the past and given up, but this is a new opportunity to try again! So why not take up the challenge, raise money for an excellent cause and discover the enormous world of mindful drinking with La Maison Wellness?

As it always should be, you’re in control of whether you choose to go sober for the whole of October, part of October, or perhaps simply moderate & donate any money saved to people with cancer!

Who knows you might even enjoy it so much that you’ll embrace it and keep going way past October 31st!
