<p>The new year is often a time for reflection, goal-setting and resolutions, but January can also follow - for some of us - a period of heavy or frequent drinking. The hangover of the festive season has seen an increasing number of young people reduce or re-evaluate their relationships with alcohol, what&rsquo;s known as the sober-curiousity movement.
