Journey to the Sunnyside | Mindful Drinking & Alcohol Health · Your Mind is Not the Boss w/ Dr. Richard Louis Miller · 2 Jul 2026 podcast

Your story is, your story is, I was going for the salt and I almost put the sugar in until I realized I was lost in thought.

To begin with, we have to observe ourselves and be aware of ourselves

if we want options to change ourselves.

We cannot change what's outside of our awareness.

So if I've been biting my nails, fortunately, that's not one of my habits, but if I've been biting my nails for weeks or months or years, and I'm not aware of when I'm sitting there and biting my nails,

I don't have any option.

I'm not aware that I'm doing it.

And days, weeks and months and years are going by and I'm chewing on my nails.

I see the results, but I'm not aware of it.

It's similar, you could say, to not being aware that you're, quote, lost in thought.

You're driving down the street and you're thinking so hard you missed your street and you could even miss a red light.

It could be dangerous.

First, you have to take the time to become aware of what it is that you're doing.

You can't change what you don't know.

So, for example,

I've got a bottle of booze in front of me.

I've got the option to reach out and grab it and take a slug.

I also have the option to pause.

But in order to pause, I have to be aware that I'm about to reach for that bottle.

I've got to let myself be aware of it.
