No Thanks, I Don't Drink. My New Mantra Ashlee Dunn

We live in a culture of "mommies who drink" and also a culture of yoga. Many people are conflicted about their use of alcohol. They exercise, practice yoga, eat organic foods, and then binge drink every weekend. They have all been taught that alcohol is a positive, beneficial substance they need in order to achieve happiness. No Thanks, I Don't Drink. My New Mantra describes the struggle of a person trying to live a yogic lifestyle in an extroverted, "alcohol infused" world. The author explains how she finally found balance and peace and how they can do the same. This book details the life of a dedicated yoga teacher who was also a wine drinking pot smoker. She FINALLY came to the realization that drinking alcohol and using other drugs, only led to deep anguish and suffering. The author teaches the reader the techniques she used to quit, helping them to find their own sober path.
