Frequently Asked Questions 

Yes, many women begin the program with the goal of wanting to feel comfortable having just a glass or two on occassion without slipping back into old patterns. Only you will know what is possible for you once you have completed the program. Resetting your tolerance level requires that the wine and cocktails be removed from your diet for the length of the program and that you follow the protocols to facilitate the repair, rebuilding and rebalancing of your body systems. Once that is complete you'll know with confidence whether or not you want to bring wine or cocktails back into your diet.

There is no group start date. Your official start date in The Anchored Abstinene Recipe™ begins once you are enrolled. 

The program spans 13 weekly modules and is designed to be completed over 3 consecutive months. 

No. Our research and the beta-testing of our protocols has demonstrated that women experience the deepest transformation and highest level of confidence in maintaining their goals after the program when all modules are completed sequentially.  

Some think that because The Anchored Abstinence Recipe™ is a group program they won't get the support they need, but this couldn't be further from the truth. In The Anchored Abstinence Recipe™ you get a huge amount of support between the emails, the one-to-one consultations, the Facebook group, and the group coaching calls. 

You'll get either 3, 7 or 13 one-to-one consultations throughout your time inside The Anchored Abstinence Recipe™ depending the Tier you purchase. This is what they look like: The first consultation is a 15-30 minute session that is held over the phone (audio only) with Angelina in your first week within the program. Angelina will call you at the time of your appointment. It’s a chance for us to walk through your supplement plan and make any adjustments required. We will review the program platform, the material in the Welcome module and ensure you know how to get access to everything you need. 

Yes! You do not need to be have an account on any social media platform to take part in the program.  Weekly coaching calls are hosted via Zoom.  Personal 1:1 coaching consultations are hosted by phone or Zoom (as a back-up). 

The weekly group coaching calls are held at three different times slots throughout the month to give you flexibility and opportunity to attend.  If you are unable to attend a weekly group call you have the opportunity to submit questions or topics for discussion each week directly to the coach/counsellor. 

No and yes. Laboratory testing is not required to achieve success in the program. Any copies of existing laboratory test results you wish to provide will be used to augment your benchmark assessments and to personalize recommendations where appropriate. We may recommend laboratory testing be completed through your medical practitioner or other healthcare professional if your health history suggest supplementation may not be appropriate. We do not order, conduct, or directly receive any laboratory test results.  

We do recommend selected supplements for you. It’s hard to make significant shifts in your brain and body in a short period of time by diet and lifestyle alone. 

Over the course of the program women experience a progressive and continual decrease in the cravings, thoughts, desires or notions to consume alcohol. When women graduate, they no longer feel stuck in an unhealthy nightly routine. They feel confident in their choice to exclude wine or cocktails from their diet or to moderate their consumption. 

What makes us so vastly different is our whole body and mind approach. Working with your physical brain and body at the cellular level with pin-point nutrition and movement to correct neurological and hormonal deficits and imbalances that have kept you stuck in the nightly cycle is the cornerstone of the program. 

Most medical professionals/doctor are not able to give you the personalized support you need in between appointments to ensure you stay on course. Long-term enjoyable success relies on a desirable and sustainable mental shift, along with dietary and lifestyle changes. You can not out-medicate root cause imbalances or an inadequate and problematic diet or lifestyle. 

You can access the program platform and group coaching calls from a personal computer, laptop, tablet or smart phone anywhere in the world. All of the worksheets are fillable online, however access to a printer is strongly recommended. To date our clients have been located in Canada, United Kingdom and United States.  

Yes, graduates of the program can maintain a month-by-month alumni membership in The Anchored Abstinence Recipe™ and retain access to the group and weekly coaching calls. However the objective of the program and how we measure success is based on your ability to move forward, close this chapter in your life and maintain your success independently. 

Yes, when you complete the 13 modules of either the Tier II or Tier III program AND if you don't experience the transforming results you were expecting we will provide a limited refund. Read our moneyback guarantee here. But honestly, we haven't had to do that. 

No. While we do see this nightly habit equally among women who choose a vegan or vegetarian diet, you may not be able to achieve lasting results with these types of restrictive diets. We simply can't out supplement a diet that's not designed to support the correction of the neurochemical imbalances associated with this health condition.
