This week on the podcast I'm discussing This Naked Mind by Annie Grace. 

The intention of this episode is not to cast This Naked Mind in a negative light, however I will be highlighting the points that I align with as well as where I disagree with Grace's conclusions. 

This is a two part episode and in the first part we'll establish:

• The Goal of This Naked Mind 
• What Liminal Thinking Is
• Liminal Points of This Naked Mind
• The Value of Bringing Awareness to  Subconscious Thoughts

Low risk drinking guidelines from the NIAAA:

Healthy men under 65:

No more than 4 drinks in one day and no more than 14 drinks per week.

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.
