No matter what time of the year you are reading this, now is always a good time to ditch the booze. As we are aware January or Sober October are the two most popular months when it actually seems permissible or acceptable to stop drinking.
What a strange world we live in when you realise that one of the things that could have been holding you back from stopping drinking is peer pressure from others and lack of acceptance from friends or family or both. This is the only substance that is proven to cause more deaths than any other drug yet is still widely accepted throughout most of society.
Why is drinking seen as normal? – In 2020 & 2021 the word new normal became the favourite catch phrase of the media and politicians. But have you stopped to think what normal is? what does it mean to be normal? Normal for one is not normal for someone else.
Do health experts really lie? In a word Yes. One thing 2021 has clearly shown every person on the planet is that our perceptions are simply one way we look and try to understand the world. When everything is upside down and confusing and when you realise the governments and big pharma do not necessarily have your best interest at heart, especially when its about your health then its time to take back some control of your own life. 2022 is going to be time of great lies being revealed. So lets start with one big lie that has been promoted for years.
Alcohol is good for me – Is it really? What does it actually do for you? I am sorry Dr Hilary from ITV and any other pompous media doctors who have been pushing this incorrect narrative either through pure ignorance or for monetary gain. This statement is simply just not true.
Beware Media Propaganda – The media will pick up on that one sentence where someone has stated red wine is said to be good for your heart (without actually explaining its not the red wine but the fruits that the wine is made with offering some slither of a health benefit) but off you pop to the local store to pick up a bottle in the false belief that it must be good for you because someone with a white coat and stethoscope was on TV telling you so.
Money talks – If one thing 2021 should have taught us all by now is that money talks and those with money have the power to decide what you will hear, what you will wear and what you will even think. The alcohol industry is a billion or trillion dollar business and their business is selling it to you.
Change your Mindset, Change your Life – Mindset really is key to giving up any addiction whether it be booze, food, sugar, bad relationships. We tend to have a vision that you are not an alcoholic as you are not wandering the streets with booze in a paper bag or you cant have a problem with booze as you would not dream of drinking in first thing in the morning and you really don’t want vodka on your cornflakes. There are many reasons why people say they drink.
