As far as the experts at www.dryoutnow.com are concerned, education and awareness represent the key to combating widespread alcoholism. The fact that alcohol is comprehensively available and treated as something of an everyday norm is precisely why so many people fall into dangerous drinking habits without having realised they were headed for a problem. Worse still, there are so many untruths and misconceptions when it comes to everyday alcohol consumption that are consistently leading people down entirely the wrong path.

So despite the fact that so many of the following examples may be considered common knowledge, each represents a potentially dangerous myth that should have been busted wide open long before now:

It does not just mean that the life is devoid of diseases and any sort of infirmity. The various dimensions include the wellness of mind, body, spirit, emotions, environment and society.

Whenever there is a condition of unconscious living, all these areas get imbalanced, thereby leading to unhealthy living conditions. Our habits could be considered as double edged swords. While they help us lead a life of discipline and routine, at the same time, we fail to realize that there are many habits that we do unconsciously and they are harmful. Aimlessly, watching the television for hours is an example of this.

The total formation of our personality is dependent on all the above mentioned dimensions and that is what we need to care about. Whenever we follow are habits without awareness of what might be their outcome, we sort of become slaves to our habits. How then can optimal health be attained. Optimal health would then be a condition in which all bonds are broken, where we are free.This freedom is about proper movement of body,
