from Alcohol Minimalist: Change Your Drinking Habits! · host Molly Watts, Brock Armstrtong, Monica Reinagel

This week on the podcast, it's a special episode with shared content from The Change Academy Podcast. Guests Brock Armstrong and Monica Reinagel are dropping in to share their thoughts on Consuming Content vs Creating Change which aligns exactly with what I see as the biggest obstacle to changing your relationship with alcohol: Falling into the learning trap. Information is not the same as transformation and if you find yourself stuck, or not achieving the results you are looking for...ask yourself if you are taking real action or are you just continually looking for different solutions to the same problem.

Healthy women (all ages) and healthy men 65 and older: No more than 3 drinks in one day and no more than 7 drinks per week. One drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor. So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink. Abstinence from alcohol Abstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past. Benefits of “low-risk” drinking Following these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more. It also reduces the risk of depression, social problems, and difficulties at school or work.
