Temperates vs This Naked Mind
This Naked Mind is Annie Grace's book and the programs around it: a free 30-day Alcohol Experiment, a free companion app, and The PATH, a year-long coached program. It works by taking apart the beliefs that make you want a drink, so the desire fades. It is the closest thing to Temperates in spirit: no shame, no labels.
The difference is the tool. This Naked Mind gives you a year-long coached program. Temperates gives you a book about how alcohol became the default, a weekly essay on the culture that keeps it there, an app that shows you your own patterns, and 1:1 coaching with founder Tara Oporto when you want it, booked session by session.
