More About the Author

I was in my 30's when I started worrying about my drinking. I wasn't suffering from any alcohol-related problems, but I was health conscious and heavy drinking and its consequences didn't fit into my future. And even though I was concerned about my drinking, I didn't think it was serious enough to stop and join AA - my only options at the time.

Armed with an MA and California College Teaching Credential in psychology, I started counseling drinkers in 1985 and started Drink/Link Moderate Drinking Programs in 1988. I believed there was a real need to offer a commonsense moderate drinking program to problem drinkers like myself - teaching drinkers to modify drinking habits and attitudes and reduce alcohol consumption. Problem drinkers outnumber alcoholics four to one. And a problem drinker is still capable of reversing a drinking problem and returning to safe, responbsible drinking with early intervention. If you offer this huge population of problem drinkers - who suffer from years of alcohol abuse and eventually graduate to alcoholism - a sensible, middle-of-the-road program you could prevent millions of drinkers from crossing the line to alcoholism!

I haven't struggled with a drinking problem for years. I automatically know when to stop and enjoy the peace of mind knowing I'll never worry about my drinking again. I've written three books, 7 Weeks to Safe Social Drinking: How to Effectively Moderate Your Alcohol Intake, Moderate Drinking - Naturally! Herbs and Vitamins to Control Your Drinking and the latest, the Moderate Drinking Made Easy Workbook: Drinker-Friendly Tips and Exercises to Control Drinking and Reduce Alcohol Craving and Consumption.

I invite you to call or email me with questions or concerns about your drinking and I'll give you my take. Totally free and confidential. In closing, keep this thought in mind: A healthy lifestyle - physically and mentally - is the antidote to alcohol abuse.

Take Care,
Donna Cornett

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant! Why hasn't anyone written about this before?, July 20, 2006
I'm a drinker who has struggled on and off with booze for years and I'm ecstatic someone has finally written about a more organic approach to problem drinking. This book gave me a different perspective. I was especially interested in how chinese and ayurvedic medicine treat drinkers and the concept of "balancing" my life so booze becomes less important and I drink less.

This book opened my mind up. I guess no ones written about alternative medicine to address alcohol abuse because the disease concept and AA are so deeply ingrained in the US.

5.0 out of 5 stars This Book Cuts Alcohol Cravings Without Prescriptions!, July 31, 2007
By 
I am so happy I came across this book at amazon. It's the only book I've
found that talks about how other alternative medicines and other cultures
view alcohol abuse and how to treat it. I was thinking about getting
prescription medication to cut the desire to drink but after reading this
I don't need to. There are lots of herbs to do that at the natural food
store. I've read Cornett's other book, 7 Weeks to Safe Social Drinking:
How to Effectively Moderate Your Alcohol Intake, and she always covers
interesting things.

For me the vitamin and supplement part was the best. It talks about things
you can buy over the counter to cut craving. The Chinese and Ayurveda
medicine parts were really interesting too.

I realize this is only one take on problem drinking. But if you take these
suggestions in the book, along with her program in her other book to
improve your drinking habits you can cut craving and consumption without
prescription medicine.

5.0 out of 5 stars this book sends an important message . . ., August 10, 2007
By 
This review is from: Alcohol Abuse Revolution: Complementary and Alternative Herbal Remedies From Around the World to Reduce Alcohol Craving and Consumption and Prevent Alcoholism (Paperback)
that message is we have to start thinking out of the box when it comes to
alcohol abuse treatment. i gave this book to a friend of mine who has a
drinking problem but was dead against stopping or going to AA. he was
receptive to this book because it gave him some organic alternatives to
drinking less. in other words it got him started doing something about
his drinking.

some people just need a little shove to do something about their drinking
and this book provided that little shove.
