Couples Healing From Pornography Addiction6 Jul 2023

100. Instantly Reduce Relapses With This Simple Tweak

In the process of overcoming pornography addiction, so many men focus on tracking sobriety. However, there is a big problem with using that as the measurement of success –

• Unintentionally it creates fear, concern and anxiety about when the next time I slip will occur.

• It amplifies discouragement and decreases motivation whenever there is a slip after a long streak occurs

• Focusing on avoiding slips doesn't actually mean you're making progress resolving the core issue

• It often can contribute to dishonesty because a husband doesn't want to disclose to his wife and start from zero

There is a better way to not only more effectively track progress, but do it in a way that increases confidence, contributes to more honesty and openness in the relationship, and creates and mental space of openness and relaxation which actually promotes more growth.

Tune into this episode to understand the small tweak you can Implement today that can have an instant result and how you feel and in your progress.

The previous episode I referenced in this show about how to properly disclose a slip is episode number 87.
