Book Description
Drink less, crave less and nip your problem drinking in the bud with the easy Drink/Link Moderate Drinking Program in this book! Drink/Link has helped thousands of drinkers worldwide to control drinking and prevent alcoholism since 1988. Over 80% of the drinkers who have completed this program have either cut their drinking in half or significantly reduced it! No meetings, drugs, belief in a higher power or professional help are required for you to succeed.

First, you learn five healthy drinking guidelines. Then you're given clinically-proven strategies and techniques to help you stay within those guidelines. You'll learn to manage alcohol craving, how to slow down and pace your drinking, pre-plan for drinking occasions, learn from you slips and resolve issues that drive you to drink so they don't lead to binge drinking. Alcohol will become less important to you and you'll automatically drink less.

Drink/Link is the first moderate drinking program registered with the California Department of Alcohol and Drug Programs and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and has been recognized in many publications, including Time Magazine, ABCNews.com, the New York Post, Esquire and the Scripps Howard News Service.

About The Author
Donna Cornett, founder and director of Drink/Link Moderate Drinking Programs, was in her 30's when grew concerned about her drinking. Even though she was not having any serious problems with alcohol, she was health conscious and thought she was drinking more than she should. But she didn't think her drinking was serious enough to stop altogether.

At the time, a drinker's only options were to continue drinking or to quit and go to AA. She knew there were thousands of drinkers like her - not alcoholic, but problem drinkers at times - who had no program they could turn to that would teach them how to drink sensibly and appropriately. That's when she developed the Drink/Link Moderate Drinking Program - for herself and the millions of problem drinkers just like her.

Cornett earned an M.A. in psychology and holds a California College Teaching Credential in the subject. She has counseled drinkers since 1985 and is also the author of Moderate Drinking - Naturally! Herbs and Vitamins to Control Your Drinking.

Reader Reviews
I wish I had discovered this book ten years ago. It spelled out how to achieve moderate drinking. It was easy to follow and best of all it worked for me! There are only a few books out that cover the subject of changing drinking behavior. One is filled with stats, boring and hard for me to stay interested in. Another one was too general - no specifics to help me manage drinking. 7 Weeks held my interest and gave specific tips to keep alcohol consumption down and to beat problem drinking.
