    weight lifting
    self improvement

    ignore below:
    avoid social media
    avoid sexual thoughts.

    Don't forget reading.

    From what I've read about monk-mode, it seems to me that pretty much everyone has their own take on what it entails anyway.

    The problem for me is when i don't do anything i tend to think about sexual stuff. The main issue is trying to focus on something different, if you think that YOU ARE NOT GONNA WATCH PORN, you are still thinking about Porn in a sense which i hate!

    Well, i think it's natural to think about a girl you like, not in a Porny way though!
     
  7. Donwload duolingo and use it daily ;)

    I'm practicing Paschimottanasana now as well. It's recommended for nofap. Some guy from chinese forums recommends doing http://ancientorientalhealth.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/8-section2.jpg exercise/posture 7 until the legs are sore. More specifically the kidney meridian: http://wellbrocks.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/kidney.jpg . I think I sometimes feel a ligament that runs along this meridian as I piss on my toes. Doing so it's supposed to strengthen the kidneys and you can see it takes a much harder job to do it. In fact right after pmo I may piss on my toes but I need to finish normally standing or even bending legs slightly to push the last bit of urine as the kidneys have been weakened drastically.
    So touching legs position maybe start with 20 a day or so. The chinese guy, 6 years long strike and going, does it 500 times a day, hes built for it.

    Also do horse stance. Especially when the legs start to vibrate in horse stance is where the beauty is at! Thats when impurities are cleaned. I strongly vouch for this one. A good programme is 3 horse stances a day until failure. Although this becomes impractical when you reach 10minutes plus. Because until 'failure' simply requires to lay down afterwards, for at least the same time, thats already 20minutes+

    Read a book called power of concentration by q dumont. It has some body control exercises in it. The art of manliness done an article on those exercises as well. It starts with training to sit down in a chair without fidgeting at all. This is achieved through relaxation rather than tension! <- critical point. As you continue through the exercises you will be able to not swallow or even tense the eyeballs eventually. Even to maintain breathing to a minimum ... in case international criminals catch you in their base and put you in a airtight room and you have little oxygen to survive on until back up arrives.

    If you want to take it further. You do anapanasati meditation right? Just watching the breath. Do tratak as well for 10 minutes every day or less ; preferably not right before breath meditation.

    I would say I'm in "Monk mode" but I have seen *some* P (GIFs and memes, stuff like that) since starting. The thing I realize I'm not doing is stuff like reading/studying/meditating because I either have too much on or I forget to look it up.

    I always use P when I MO. My streak is 107 days right now, and it had been pretty easy at first and then I hit a flatline last Wednesday and have almost relapsed everyday since. I finally had sex with a girl on New Years, which was a great success because I wasn't able to get hard with a girl due to PIED for a very long times (9 or so years). After I had sex my mind went straight to thinking about sex.

    Man that's tough, i'm still a virgin plus im religious in a sense. But try to find a girl you love and start a relationship i don't think it's healthy to just look for sex. That can tempt you very easily.

    If you want to quit that bad sometimes you have to outsmart the addiction, remove internet from phone and computer. Ive heard about these "apps" that block porn. The addicted user immediately uninstalls it and boom a porn website. If you cant live without internet, and you need to send school papers and what not. Go to the library and use their internet there. If you still get on porn on that computer then you need to see a psychiatrist. Outsmart this addiction my friend, it all depends on how far youre willing to go.

    you need social habits too. All your stuff is inner habits. I just did 90 days monk mode, but had sex with wife 4 times. It works very well and fast.

    You are not allowed to have sex-O in monk mode. we have to keep those legit desires to null or low as possible. We have to focus on:
    meditate-yoga
    weight lifting
    self improvement
    reading
    studying
    more good things.
