Sober October is a fun way to insert a little mindfulness into your daily routine. We’ve chosen four simple things to focus on: drinking less, and sleeping, reading, and exercising more. That’s it. We added a basic point system, a leaderboard, and just enough competition to gamify the whole thing. Join an existing challenge or start your own. Do it with friends for some added accountability, or create a challenge just for yourself. It’s an honor system. Log your day, earn your points, and try to get one day right at a time. Stack a few good days together and you might find yourself building some momentum. Along the way, you can track your progress, climb the leaderboard, chase Perfect Days, compete for discipline trophies, share photos and comments, and keep up with everyone else in your challenge. The goal isn’t necessarily to become a completely different person for one month. Maybe you just prove to yourself that you CAN do it. Maybe a few healthier habits stick around after October. And despite the name, nobody says you have to wait until October. Sober October. Sober November. Random-three-weeks-in-March. We’re not picky.
