Summary
In today's episode we talk about why surrendering is such an important part of the process to quitting porn.
I'm not talking about surrendering as in accepting defeat or accepting that pornography has power over you. I'm not talking about surrendering as in giving up. I'm talking about surrendering to the experience of being a human.
We typically want to fight our urges to view pornography. Fighting is a sign of willpower, and willpower is never a long-term solution to quitting any habit, especially pornography. You don't need to fight anymore. Fighting is exhausting.
Join me in today's episode to learn how to stop fighting and start surrendering. This will make your journey to quitting pornography much easier.
