Summary
Craig Beck is a well-regarded family man with two children, a nice home, and a successful media career; a director of several companies and at one time the trustee of a large children’s charity. Outwardly, Craig was a highly successful and functioning professional man in spite of a ‘two-bottles-of-wine-a-night" drinking habit.
For 20 years he struggled to control his drinking, all the time refusing to label himself an alcoholic because he didn't believe he met the stereotypical image that the word portrayed. He tried countless ways to cut down; attempting ‘dry months’, banning himself from drinking spirits, only drinking at the weekend and special occasions (and found that it is amazing how even the smallest of event can suddenly become ‘special’).
All these 'willpower' based attempts to stop drinking failed (exactly as they were destined to do). Slowly he discovered the truth about alcohol addiction and one by one all the lies he had previously believed started to fall apart. For the first time he noticed that he genuinely didn’t want to drink anymore. In this book he will lead you though the same amazing process.
Craig is known around the world as "The Stop Drinking Expert" and many thousands of people just like you have quit drinking using his method. This updated edition of the best-selling Alcohol Lied to Me is new for 2014.
No need to declare yourself an alcoholic. A permanent cure, not a lifetime struggle. No group meetings or expensive rehab. No humiliation, no pain, and 100% no ‘will power’ required. Treats the source of the problem not the symptoms.

Wow!
The first self help book for alcohol addiction that I’ve got further than the second chapter on! Listened to it everywhere! I hung on his every word and for the first time actually understood the no bullshit approach that Craig gives 🙏 I will listen to it again and download a couple of mp3 hypnosis guides too. This time I actually get it...thank you 🙏
I advise anyone struggling with the booze demon to get this book...it will save your life! A very grateful sober Jacqui 😀

Incredibly powerful book
I’d go as far as to say life-changing. I’m always been that “I don’t have a problem” guy. Now, as someone who enjoys wine at the weekend, I realise I do. As do many of us.

Worked for me.
This is a copy of the book on the same subject by Allen Carr. However, the author/ narrator puts his own style on it making it easier to listen to and holds your attention a little better.

Absolutely life changing stuff
I came to this book via listening to another one by Craig, because I was so impressed by how knowledgeable he was on that subject and on life and people in general. His voice is easy to listen to and re-listen to (probably because he's a hypnotherapist!) and the facts he gives you can rarely be denied, even by a mind as stubborn as mine. My only regret is that I didn't discover his books earlier in my life, but then again, as Craig himself would say, regrets are pointless. You need to live in the present.

Just aimed at selling hypnosis programs
The book was okay in parts and resonated at some points, however the real help you need is once you have stopped drinking not helping you stop. The book offered little practical suggestions on how you ensure you continue not to drink and seemed to be aimed at just driving income for the author by way of you joining an expensive membership and purchasing hypnotic recordings
Left with the feeling that the book could have offered so much more -but didn't

Definitely recommend this book.
As a 'Psychic Addiction' specialist (Be Psychic Free), I work with many people who suffer from anxiety about the future. Most of them drink in order to 'escape', albeit temporarily, from their problems and anxiety. Alcohol, of course, does not solve the anxiety issues, it is often the cause. This book came to me quite by chance, I am so glad it did, because it is going to be the first thing I recommend my clients to read. As a writer, how strange that I should be writing a chapter on the importance of self-care and looking after yourself physically, only to have this book appear. This should be recommended reading for all addiction specialists, life coaches, counsellors and therapists. An excellent resource.

What did you like most about Alcohol Lied to Me - New Edition?
Thank you so for the last 3 weeks it's the longest time I've been sober over 30 years apart from when I;was pregnant, as soon as I read alcohol lied to me it happened my road to Damascus no heavenly light just a wonderful sense of I can bet this I can have my life back and I went out and brought the supplements you said would help and they have all I seem to have is a bit of a headache and a hangover feeling in the morning which is funny as I know I haven't had a drink and don't want one-My husband and children can't believe it we went out for .my two youngest birthday and I was drinking soder water and lime juice.
Thanks again Craig for your work I think it might have saved my life!!!
I would say to any one who is struggling with alcohol to read or listen to this book I've been to AA & had councaing but it just made me feel so guilty,
So I was so shocked when l listen to this book and it made so much sense to me!!

Fantastic listen
This book was amazing. Just says it as it is. Before listening to the audio I felt alcohol was in control of me and I needed it to have fun. Now I’m in control and excited about all the fun I’ll have with it.
