    I'm creating this thread because during the last 90 days I picked up new habits: talking cold showers, practising meditation etc. Those habits are now part of my daily routine, part of my life and I'm thinking I wish someone had told me about these years ago. In this thread I'd like people to share new habits that they've picked up during nofap. I wouldn't want to miss out on anything else, you see! :)

    Cool thread idea. My new habit is to do a clearing meditation every morning and evening along with my usual Tai Chi practise (Tai Chi has proved such a blessing for me). I learnt the new meditation recently from a Buddhist lady and it involves focusing on No Fear, Generosity, Stability, Single -pointed concentration and 'All is well' . I've not been doing it long but the effects feel quite instantaneous, which I hope will help me to stick to it as to be honest I've not been very consistent about sitting meditation up till now, I find I keep up movement meditations more regularly, but feel determined to be disciplined about this new one.

    It's an excellent idea and I think this should be integral to recovery from any addiction. Building habits, defining our identity, making progress in life, that's where fulfilment comes from. It was precisely because we didn't have that fulfilment that we fell into addiction in the first place.

    Furthermore, it is crucial that these habits and rituals have progress. I see people starting a habit, and saying they'll do it for a year (or any fixed amount of time). That defeats its purpose. Once that activity has consolidated itself as a ritual in our lives, we must define that as a baseline. RAISE THE STANDARD. Keep improving. Consistency followed by progress. That sounds like a beautiful life to me.

    This applies to any activity we undertake in life.

    That's my philosophy.

    DS.
