Giving up alcohol and coffee completely can seem impossible in today’s society. Wherever you go, you see people boozing or enjoying their daily cup of joe. Yet, there are thousands of men and women who gave up caffeine and alcohol for 15 months or more. One of them is Tobias van Schneider. His life has changed after ditching these habits. Not only has he saved money, but also experienced less stress, better sleep, and clearer thinking.

So, here is what happens when you give up booze and coffee:

Reduce Your Expenses
When you live in a big city like New York or Paris, it’s easy to spend $1,000 on alcohol every month. It’s enough to have two or three cocktails daily and buy a few bottles of wine for your home. Since most people tend to order food when they have wine or spirits, the costs add up. Once you give up alcohol, you’ll save hundreds and even thousands of dollars a month.

Have Meaningful Conversations
Alcohol and gossip go hand in hand. If you’re tired of having bland conversations, quit alcohol. It’s that easy. Once you do it, you’ll realize how much time you were wasting gossiping. The truth is that many friendships are based mostly on drinking habits. If you stop drinking alcohol and surround yourself with sober people, you’ll have more interesting conversations that bring value to your life.

Enjoy Better Sleep
Both coffee and alcohol affect your sleep. Although it’s easy to fall asleep after drinking some wine, alcohol actually messes up your sleep cycle. As soon as you give up these habits, you’ll sleep better and wake up energized.

Deal Better with Stress and Anxiety
Booze and coffee reduce your body’s ability to handle stress. They actually increase anxiety, leading to panic attacks, migraines, poor digestion, and restlessness. Some people are more sensitive to coffee and alcohol than others, so they experience these symptoms to a greater degree. If you really love coffee, enjoy an occasional decaf.
