Yes, I agree it's about balance. Generally I look at what I need to do to reduce my suffering in relation to a problematic behavior and take that action. I was just asking because in applying AVRT to other problem behaviors, a big plan might look a little different. I won't read the other book either, I was just curious as to what Addictive Voice Recognition Training would look like when applied in other situations.

As far as the shoes...if they are cute and on sale, the amount of dopamine released automatically doubles LOL
