On Day Twenty-Five of the Mindful Drinking Advent, we’ve made it to Christmas Day, and the message is simple: enjoy yourself. 

There’s nothing to track, nothing to analyse, and nothing to fix.

Whether you’re surrounded by family, catching up with friends, or enjoying a quiet day on your own, today is about laughter, connection, and doing whatever genuinely brings you joy.

On Day Twenty-Four of the Mindful Drinking Advent, it’s time to stop, breathe, and slow everything down. 

Christmas Eve is charged with excitement, pressure, nostalgia, and logistics — but it doesn’t need to be fuelled by exhaustion or overdoing it. 

This episode is a gentle reminder to rest, enjoy something you genuinely love, and protect tomorrow by keeping tonight calm and intentional. 

No tasks. No plans. Just permission to pause before the big day arrives.

On Day Twenty-Three of the Mindful Drinking Advent, we focus on travel days — one of the most overlooked trigger points of Christmas. 

From packed trains and traffic jams to airport bars and trolley services, this episode explains why planning ahead matters if you want to arrive feeling energised rather than depleted. 

You’ll hear practical travel tactics, from bringing your own “journey juice” to setting expectations with hosts in advance, so the festivities don’t start with exhaustion before you’ve even unpacked.

On Day Twenty-Two of the Mindful Drinking Advent, we talk about hosting — and how to do it with ease, generosity, and inclusion. 

This episode shows you how to set up your drinks space so low, no and light options carry the same weight as alcoholic ones, making everyone feel welcome without creating more work for yourself. 

From stocking variety to making drinks self-serve, it’s about thoughtful preparation that lets you enjoy your own Christmas too.

On Day Twenty-One of the Mindful Drinking Advent, we rethink what “treat yourself” really means. 

This episode challenges the idea that indulgence has to involve alcohol, and asks a simpler question: Does it actually make you feel better? You’ll explore how to choose treats that restore rather than deplete — from low/no drinks and better sleep to time alone, movement, rest, and saying no when you mean no. 

A reminder that the best treats give something back.

On Day Twenty of the Mindful Drinking Advent Series, we talk about family pressure — the noise, the mess, the emotional labour, and the temptation to use alcohol just to take the edge off. 

This episode is a reminder that presence matters more than perfection. You’ll explore how letting go of impossible standards, taking micro-escapes, and choosing to join in rather than control the chaos can transform the next few days. 

Be kind to yourself. This season doesn’t need you flawless — it needs you there.

On Day Nineteen of the Mindful Drinking Advent Series, we focus on preparation — the difference between struggling through December and genuinely enjoying it at home. 

As work parties wind down and family time ramps up, this episode explains why stocking your fridge, upgrading your glassware, and thinking like a bar rather than relying on willpower makes drinking differently feel effortless. 

Being prepared turns good intentions into easy, satisfying choices — especially when everything else slows down.

On Day Eighteen of the Mindful Drinking Advent Series, we talk about morning wins — those glorious, clear-headed starts after a night where you stuck to your intentions. 

This episode is a reminder to enjoy that feeling without turning it into a sermon. 

Not everyone is ready for the same choices at the same time, and no one ever changed because they were shamed. 

Lead by example, lend a hand, grab the coffees, and let your calm confidence do the talking.

On Day Seventeen of the Mindful Drinking Advent, we tackle festive exhaustion and the myth of Dutch courage. 

When you’re tired, overstretched, and running on fumes, alcohol can feel like the thing that helps you keep going — but this episode questions whether it was ever really doing the work. 

You’ll explore the difference between energy and permission, how alcohol masks social fatigue, and why choosing the right people (or choosing rest) can be more powerful than pushing through another event.

YOUR DATA, YOUR CHOICE: WEIGH UP THE TRUE IMPACT OF DRINKING FROM LIGHT – MEDIUM – HEAVY DAYS WITH THE DRINKING IMPACT CALCULATOR AT https://mindfuldrinkinginmidlife.com/products/drinking-impact-calculator

On Day Sixteen of the Mindful Drinking Advent, we’re talking about just how far low, no and light alcohol drinks have come — and why if you’ve tried one, you definitely haven’t tried them all.

This episode encourages you to keep an open mind, experiment like you once did with full-strength drinks, and treat low/no as exploration rather than restriction. 

From pubs and supermarkets to specialist online retailers, there’s never been more choice — and plenty that genuinely tastes fantastic.
