MINIMISE YOUR TIME WITH PORN

While there’s nothing wrong with watching porn, why not try to use it a little less? Start by watching porn as you usually would. As soon as you start to build arousal, push the porn away from you or turn it off, and play around with your arousal. Does it continue to build? Perhaps it might dissipate? Think about how you feel. If you need to bring the porn back to build arousal up again that’s OK, too. Try to push it away for a longer amount of time the next time and be conscious of how your pleasure feels, and how your body feels. Keep trying to spend less and less time with the porn and enjoy more and more minutes involved in only your own pleasure to have a more embodied experience.

Should I be masturbating more than I am now? What are the best ways to masturbate? Let’s break it down.
