How to Accelerate Your Brain's Healing?

Exercise.

This is such a serious life hack and it's benefits are practically endless.

I'm sure you don't need to be told about the benefits of exercise, but I will mention the 2 main reasons why exercise helps overcome porn addiction.

Exercise is the best way to increase Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) which is the thing in your brain that accelerates brain rewiring.

That's our goal here. We want to rewire your brain and exercise speeds up that process.

That's why exercise is crucial to speeding up porn-addiction recovery.

Exercising floods your brain with endorphins and healthy dopamine.

The difference here is that you have earned your dopamine vs. watching porn to get instant gratification and cheap dopamine.

Healthy dopamine makes you feel good and makes you want to do more of "the thing" that gave you healthy dopamine...

...but it doesn't have the same addiction cycle that cheap dopamine (like porn) does.

Exercising trains you to work for your dopamine and enjoy it as well.
