Day 3 - Dying for a wank. Dopamine levels are balancing. Been tempted, but I'll reward myself when I need to.

This list is not exhaustive, but some of you might find these ideas helpful nonetheless.

Think not about the action itself, but about the results and the consequences of the action. Sure, you might want to masturbate a lot, but you do not want to feel regret, restart your counter, deal with chaser effect or other urges again, etc. Long term goals are more important than short term satisfaction. In the context of what you want to accomplish, your urge will seem less formidable.

Pressure in the bladder can cause arousal. If you feel an urge, then try to recall whether you have consumed a lot of fluid recently. Empty your bladder and then see if you are still aroused. If you cannot urinate because you have an erection, then wait until your erection subsides, because you do not know whether a full bladder is the cause of the issue. You will feel very foolish if you urinate a lot soon after orgasm.

Ask yourself whether you are in a state of equilibrium. If you are B.L.A.S.T. (bored, lonely, angry, stressed, or tired) or you are "out of balance" in some other way, then you might only want to masturbate because of that particular condition that you are experiencing. Only consider masturbation or pornography when you are in a state of equilibrium. You will probably find that when you are in equilibrium, masturbation and pornography are much less appealing.

If you crave masturbation specifically, then meditate (think) about the nature of your body. Similarly, if you crave pornography, then try to meditate (think) about the nature of your actress/actor of desire. All that you see is the flesh, and that is what you crave, but the body is composed of much more than flesh. Remember that the body is composed of hair, teeth, nails, blood, urine, excrement, pus, bones, marrow, saliva, stomach acid, etc. Break down the body into its constituent parts. This technique will help to generate feelings of detachment and/or disgust. This will help to destroy the urge. You might not want to do this, but this is because your mind is clinging to the illusion.

(see footnote) It can also be helpful to remember that your actress/actor of desire was once a child, will one day be an elderly person, and probably has been or will be sickly or diseased as some point in time. Remember that this person has parents, perhaps has siblings, and perhaps even has children. Your desire for them will be replaced by compassion for them, and you will see them not as an object but as a human being. Alternatively, imagine the person sleeping, or eating, or answering the calls of nature, or performing some other ordinary or menial task. This can place the person in a more real context.

Shift your focus from your object of desire to the desire itself. Observe your desire. If you want to masturbate, then simply do nothing, stay where you are, and watch your desire for as long as you can, or until it subsides. This can be a very interesting and enlightening experiment. Practicing this technique with any desire in life develops strength and endurance that transfer to dealing with lust.

Focus on your breath. Take slow, controlled, deep breaths and count them. Often when we obsess over masturbation, pornography, or other desires, we are stuck in our racing minds, far from the present moment. Some breathing practice can bring us back to the tranquility of the real world, where such behavior seems silly and out of place. Try to stay in the present moment, as opposed to being carried away by wandering thoughts that might lead you to a place of temptation.

Smile, and do not be too serious! Do not underestimate the power of this technique. I would write more about it, but I think that it is best if you investigate for yourself.

The most difficult part about this process is remembering to do these things in the moment. It is only when we forget all of our wisdom that we make mistakes or act unskillfully. Repeat these techniques - or whatever techniques you find most helpful - to yourself every day and memorize the information, so that you will not forget in the crucial moments.

Best of luck in achieving your goals! You can do it!

Footnote: Some commenters have indicated that this technique makes them uncomfortable. To prevent any misunderstanding: The purpose of this particular technique is to give context to the person's existence and remember that they are a human being, not a mystical creature who exists for pleasure. They are subject to the same mortal constraints as everyone else. The point is not to imagine a child or an elderly person in copula. If you fear that you will confuse the other images with your feelings of lust, then please forgo this technique.
