When Did Dry January Start?
Dry January began as a local campaign in the United Kingdom in 2013 by the charity Alcohol Change UK. The concept quickly gained traction, evolving into a global movement with millions of people participating each year. The idea is simple: start the year with a booze-free month to reap the physical, mental, and emotional benefits, and perhaps reassess one's relationship with alcohol.
A Month of Reflection and Reset:
Dry January is not about demonizing alcohol but rather creating a space for self-reflection and promoting healthier choices. Participants often report improved sleep, increased energy, and a sense of accomplishment, setting a positive tone for the rest of the year.
