Episode 189: No More Band-Aid Solutions
Are you tired of trying Band-Aid solutions to quit viewing pornography that never seem to work long-term? Why are these quick fixes ineffective? And what should you focus on instead?
One of the biggest misconceptions about having a porn habit is that if you’re experiencing unwanted pornography use, you’re lacking strength, willpower, or spirituality. This misleading belief is not only false but often leads to avoidance techniques I call Band-Aid solutions. In this episode, I show you how to stop relying on these quick fixes and how making tiny changes in the way you cope with emotions can change everything.
Join me this week to discover what Band-Aid solutions can look like in practice and why they don’t work long-term. You’ll learn why buffering and numbing out prevents you from processing emotions in a healthy way, and how to stop the cycle of turning to porn every time life gets challenging so you can finally experience true freedom.
My brand-new live class, The New Revolutionary Way to Quit Viewing Porn, starts September 19th 2024. This process has changed lots of lives quickly and has been called revolutionary by many people. If you’re ready to overcome pornography for good, click here to register.
