Alcohol is something that can be both beneficial to you when used in moderation, and harmful to you when used in excess. Certain things in alcohol, especially resveratrol in red wine, can be very good for your health, if you consume it once in a while, and never to excess. In certain places, people drink red wine for their health, and as long as they don't abuse it, they never have any adverse health effects.

However, alcohol can also be very harmful to your health if you use it too much. A person who is using alcohol to excess might not be sleeping as well as they should be, and will wake up feeling like they are not well rested. Their cells will not be getting enough oxygen, so they will feel sluggish and tired no matter how often they sleep. They might have chronic headaches or muscle aches because of the adverse effect of alcohol on their body.

Research shows that traffic related deaths involving alcohol were at their highest in 2006 than in the previous 14 years. That number 17,941, was 43 percent of all such deaths.

Increased risk of cancer, obesity, depression, heart and liver disease are just some of the physical afflictions that can be linked to alcohol. Excessive drinking can lead to alcohol poisoning, when vomit aspirates due to a intoxicated person passing out while lying on their back. This can cause brain damage or even death.

The chances of knowing an abuser of alcohol are great. About 1 in 13 U.S. adults fall into this category, highest among those ages 18 to 29 and lowest among the elderly.

Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy can be extremely helpful with alcohol addiction. By their nature, addictions are habits that cannot be moderated by the individual. Complete abstinence is the answer. This involves making the decision to stop. However, some individuals only seek help to moderate their consumption of alcoholic beverages.

Twelve step programs are excellent support systems for many addictions, but for various reasons, some individuals want a different path.

I use hypnosis to suggest to the subconscious mind a lack of cravings and a desire for complete abstinence. The individual hypnotherapy sessions provide coaching and one on one support to encourage continued abstinence.

Hypnosis is a safe, natural, and easy way to make the changes you desire. Hypnosis works because it engages your emotions and your subconscious mind in a positive way to overcome subconscious resistance to change, and utilizes your internal resources to accomplish what you want to accomplish.

You, the client must meet me half way with a strong conscious motivation for accelerating positive personal change in your life. You are required to have a willingness to put all necessary personal effort towards making the change. A willingness to go to any length to be successful.

For optimal success, you will be required to complete all homework assignments and to play a hypnosis recording daily, both morning and evening.

Short-term effects of Alcohol (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

The short-term effects of alcohol on the human body can take several forms.

Alcohol, specifically ethanol, is a potent central nervous system depressant, with a range of side effects. The amount and circumstances of consumption play a large part in determining the extent of intoxication; for example, consuming alcohol after a heavy meal causes alcohol to absorb more slowly. ^[1]Hydration also plays a role, especially in determining the extent of hangovers.^{[citation

Initially, alcohol generally produces feelings of relaxation and cheerfulness, but further consumption can lead to blurred vision and coordination problems. Cell membranes are highly permeable to alcohol, so once alcohol is in the bloodstream it can diffuse into nearly every biological tissue of the body. After excessive drinking, unconsciousness can occur and extreme levels of consumption can lead to alcohol poisoning and death (a concentration in the blood stream of 0.45% will kill half of those affected). Death can also occur through asphyxiation by vomit. An appropriate first aid response to an unconscious, drunken person is to place them in the recovery position.

Long-term effects of Alcohol (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

Regularly consuming alcohol is correlated with an increased risk of developing alcoholism, alcoholic liver disease, and cancer. Damage to the central nervous system and peripheral nervous system can occur from sustained alcohol misuse.^[2] While some research has found a correlation between moderate consumption of alcohol, less than 14 standardised drinks a week, and reduced risk of heart disease and reduced death risk overall, alcohol consumption is not definitely known to have positive health effects.
