Just do it!
Really, really recommend this programme, this guy, his books and the podcasts! Wherever you’re at with your drinking if it’s not where you’d like to be Craig’s the no 1 go to guy! His approach is super effective, super simple, super logical and works deep on your rational and subconscious/unconscious mind to totally change how you feel about alcohol so there’s no willpower or white knuckling! If you’re serious, get involved, if you’re not sure read/listen to his book (Alcohol lied to me). Really recommend it.

Alcohol lied to me was one of the first…
Alcohol lied to me was one of the first books I read on my sober journey. It was clear and easy to read. My own evil clown was called Golem! Nearly 4 years sober and I know I will never drink alcohol again.
Thanks Craig 🙏

Fake news
I joined the webinar expecting a legitimate learning experience, only to realize almost immediately that it was nothing more than a deceptive marketing ploy. The entire thing is a pre-recorded fake, deliberately designed to appear as if it’s live to create a false sense of urgency and authenticity. This is a blatant manipulation tactic meant to pressure people into making impulsive purchases, and it reeks of dishonesty.
Beyond the artificial “live” aspect, the misleading and deceptive claims made throughout the webinar are beyond questionable—they are outright false. The presenter repeatedly asserts that this is the “number one course on the internet”, yet provides absolutely no proof to back up this wild claim. In reality, well-established programs like This Naked Mind, which has over 140,000 members, demonstrate a much larger and more credible presence in this space. The fact that such a comparison is omitted speaks volumes about the lack of transparency in his pitch.
What’s worse, misleading and deceptive conduct is illegal under Australian consumer law, yet this individual seems to have no hesitation in engaging in it. This is not just unethical; it’s a deliberate exploitation of vulnerable people who are looking for real help, not a glorified sales funnel filled with smoke and mirrors. The entire setup is designed to mislead potential buyers into believing they are investing in a highly successful and widely recognized program, when in reality, the data simply does not support these claims. There isn’t a single verifiable statistic provided—just vague, unverifiable boasts that don’t hold up to scrutiny.
Additionally, the use of logos and references to major media outlets like Forbes, CNN, and others is yet another misleading tactic designed to lend false credibility to the course. A quick search of these sites reveals no actual content related to this program or its creator. The implication that it has been featured on these platforms is a blatant attempt to deceive customers into believing it has been endorsed by reputable sources when it has not.
As for the so-called money-back guarantee, don’t be fooled. It is not a real guarantee in any meaningful sense of the word. I have firsthand experience of how difficult, if not impossible, it is to claim a refund. The process is deliberately designed to discourage customers from following through, making it nothing more than a hollow promise meant to further reduce your hesitations before making a purchase.
Bottom line: This programme is disguised as a self-improvement course, built on false advertising, deceptive marketing, and outright lies. If you value your time, money, and integrity, do not fall for it. There are far more reputable and proven alternatives out there that don’t rely on deceit to sell their programs. Save your money and look elsewhere.

Live Webinar is faked
I was keen on this course and would have happily paid to join.
However the webinar has put me off. It in theory is Craig himself with a live chat, to which he refers regularly. It gives the impression that you are chatting to others when actually you are not.
For one thing, Craig is in theory doing three of these a day, every day. Not a chance. Why make the pretence?
Classic sales pitch of only 10 left which counts down. At a one off price - which is also available on the website!
If the webinar had been recorded, or hosted for real by someone, I would have trusted the product. As it is- steer clear. If you really have a product that is good enough, why resort to dodgy sales methods?

Craig gave some tangible instructions…
Craig gave some tangible instructions to put pattern interrupts in place when you are having cravings to drink. Drinking a glass of water and then doing something dramatically different than the trigger leading to drinking; tapping therapy; and hypnosis.
