QuitByHealing - beat p*rn addiction to level up your life

The fastest way to quit: https://quitbyhealing.com/program/The episode explains that a major internal obstacle behind porn addiction and relapse is an unhealthy, shame-based relationship with sexuality shaped by repression and cultural messaging. Sexual urges are innate, so resisting and repressing them can intensify obsession and drive addictive coping; emotional pain from guilt and “not good enough” beliefs is often numbed through porn, worsening the cycle. Conflicting online “manosphere” advice makes things worse, not better. That's why it's time to define your own values and clarify your own beliefs. In this episode, you will see exactly how you can do this by answering 4 questions. This is one of the things that will help fortify your mind and make you more mature and harder to shake.More about this here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nLsEGUF3JUgResources:Get access to my Introspective Writing crash course & my other free resources here: https://quitbyhealing.com/newsletter/Why healing from you addiction can be your greatest opportunity: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6G4PmragEYWhy not NoFap: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5as7UMOU39MThe ultimate dopamine/addiction reset, tested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sbPSY9ktLIAChapters:00:00 Intro00:41 The Internal Obstacle01:24 The Problem of Repression02:57 You Can't Turn Off Your Instincts04:19 Shame vs. Pressure06:06 The Problem of Conflicting Advice07:29 Form Your Own Beliefs08:07 Question 110:08 Question 211:39 Women, the World and You15:41 Question 317:03 Question 419:14 Are You Causing Your Own Suffering?21:07 How to Do This Exercise22:16 Shaping Your Beliefs to Shape Your Outcomes24:08 A Process of Maturing25:29 Final Notes

It's people who are good at delaying gratification that end up more successful, happier, better off and wealthier, compared to people who have low self control and act impulsively. Common sense, right? Well, it turns out that almost everything you've ever been told about self control is actually a misunderstanding. Many studies have shown that people with "high self control" do indeed end up healthier, happier and better off... but when you look closer, "self control" is actually a mis-labeling. What from the outside might look like self control is actually a combination of completely different characteristics. What's worse, if you want to join this group of successful individuals, trying to exert more self control is actually making things worse, not better. So let's dig into it and see how this applies to building habits, breaking bad habits and addictions and being smart about improving your life.

That sounds like a crazy claim, but there are at least 2 ways in which it is indeed worse. We live in a world where it is normalized to watch porn. Even in a relationship, many people wouldn't be surprised that one partner (or both) still watch porn in secret. It's easy to dismiss this and assume it's harmless. Maybe even a good way to balance out mismatched libidos between the partners! Unfortunately, this is not the whole truth.

Intrusive thoughts are a withdrawal symptom that can be very frustrating to deal with, when you're quitting a bad habit or addiction. Unlike other withdrawal effects, many people find that intrusive thoughts actually get WORSE, the longer you stay clean.

Discipline and hard work are the keys to success, right? It's how you accomplish your goals and create the life you envision... at least, that's what we're constantly being told. But while discipline is a useful tool, it's not useful in every situation. And when it comes to achieving your goals, discipline can actually end up slowing you down rather than getting you there faster. In today's episode, we unpack this unusual idea, so you can know the pitfalls of being overly reliant on discipline and you can detect the opportunities where there is an easier way to get better results.

To become a man, you must progress through a natural process of maturing: from boy to Knight, to Prince to King. Unfortunately, we live in a world where this natural progression is denied to most of us. And instead, we have social media, OnlyFans, vapes and junk food to keep us stuck in boy mode... Join the newsletter & get access to my free courses: https://quitbyhealing.com/links/ The result is clear: we've got a lot of boys walking around in adult bodies, these days. We've lost and forgotten all the tools our ancestors had, to help in the difficult transition, the teach a boy how to become a real, complete man. Nowadays, we get stuck in childhood in many ways. We become passive consumers of entertainment media and entertainment goods. And yet, no matter how comfortable we are or how much we entertain and stimulate ourselves, we never actually feel good in a lasting kind of way. The solution to this is to get unstuck and progress through the stages of development that, as a man, you have a natural inclination to go through. In this episode of the QuitByHealing Podcast, you'll discover the 4 stages of development that every man must go through, how to go through them and where it typically goes wrong. Chapters: 00:00 Intro 01:00 The 4 Stages 01:08 The Page - looking up to his heroes 01:51 The Knight - adventure calls! 02:23 Play and skill development 05:11 The Prince - time to build 07:19 The crisis at the end of the Prince phase 08:41 Multiple attempts as a Prince 10:05 The King - the mature man, in service of others 11:27 How to apply this to your life 12:25 How we get stuck 13:57 Addiction is seeking a substitute for real development 15:22 The eternal Page 16:24 A world designed to keep you immature 17:40 Getting stuck in the Prince stage 19:12 Avoiding failure is overrated 20:36 You can’t skip to the King stage 22:08 Which stage are you in? 24:00 Observe the stages in others 25:19 How you can progress to become The King The stages of development presented in this episode are based on Alison Armstrong's work "The Amazing Development of Men" and I highly recommend you check it out.

In this episode, we're looking at the surprising and powerful benefits of... doing nothing. Phone addiction, doomscrolling, social media dopamine traps, p*rn... everyone's addicted to digital stimulation these days. And it's causing a lot of suffering. I know how bad this can get, both from personal experience and from the people I've worked with to overcome their addiction. When you're in the middle of a personal mental health crisis, everything feels overwhelming and hopeless. But what I have for you today is a message of hope. There is one fact of life, one thing that is universally true and that we can actually observe everywhere if we just pay close enough attention, that makes me very optimistic. And once you understand this, you will see that for you, no matter how desperate your situation seems, a solution is much closer and much more immediate than you think... 00:00 Intro 00:29 The Spiral of Suffering 01:27 The Thing Everyone Misses 03:27 Example: Curing Disease 04:33 Removing Interference 05:45 What (not) to DIY 07:07 What About Mental Health? 08:49 A Message of Hope 10:04 Don't Believe Me 11:45 A Fact of Life 12:03 Why this is a "Secret" 13:04 You Have the Power The fastest way to quit: https://quitbyhealing.com/program/

When you use p*rn a lot, one of the consequences is that it changes and warps your desires. It's common for addicts to end up watching content that isn't even aligned with their true desires or even true sexual orientation. In today's episode, we examine the phenomenon and explain how you can "uninstall" those fake desires and return to a healthy, wholesome and authentic sexuality. Note: this is advanced content.
