111:How Nervous System Regulation Helps You Make Better Choices When Addiction Urges Hit
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Better decisions don’t start with willpower. They start with a regulated nervous system.
Most addiction urges are not moral failures—they are your nervous system trying to regulate discomfort.
When you regulate your nervous system, you create space between the urge and the action.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Addiction urges are often your nervous system trying to regulate discomfort
- Regulation creates space between urge and action
- A regulated nervous system helps you make disciplined decisions
