CAUTION: Do not believe Anything without Testing.
Have you thought Why do you want to do Brahmacharya or Nofap?
Write Down your reasons in the Comments.
But Why do I want to do it?
I want to conserve my energy. I feel more energized and focused. I want to achieve more, more success, more happiness, more good work, more hard work, etc.
But in any case, I want to grow and break my limits.
So, this shows that Our nature is such that we want to break old records and create new ones and then again break them to create more new records. So, it is Infinite but the Problem arises when we want to achieve or break those limits through our mind and body which leads to stress and tension.
To achieve that Infinite power one thing we have to realize is that we are Not Our Body and Mind. We are not what we see ourselves in our mirror and What we think about ourselves. It is just unreal so, we have to identify ourselves with the real divine power.
Now, Please Let’s find below Some tips and tricks to avoid masturbation-
1. While in Washroom-
Take bath as fast as much possible. Do not stay in the Bathroom for a longer time.
After taking bath do not rub yourself hard with a towel as it can create sensations.
Do not use very hot water, use only normal-temperature water.
Do not touch unnecessarily intimate parts
2. Food and Sleeping
Food Should be non-stimulating or non-irritant.
Avoid spicy and oily food, tea, or coffee as they are stimulants, etc.
Do not drink very hot milk at night and take it in moderation.
Excess Sleeping without utilizing your energies in positive work is also a reason to masturbate.
3. Excercise and Sports
Releases Endorphins(also Known as “Feel Good” Hormones). These are the same Chemicals released when masturbation is done.
4. Always wear your underwear to avoid sensations on your intimate parts.
5. Connect On Social Media-
Seek the company of people who are working on this similar cause and understand how they are helping people, also you may do your Contribution in any form.
Avoid Following any Sexually arousing or Pornography related Content.
6. Use wallpapers that inspire you to not masturbate like Swami Vivekananda Quotes, and other Yogis etc. Also, read about them and other Inspiring Personalities who have done Positive contributions to society.
7. Avoid Excess Free- Time
The mind wonders about Negative Thoughts if given unnecessary free time.
Use Mantra recitation in your mind while sitting free.
8. Acknowledge Shameful feelings about Masturbation
In society talking about masturbation is Taboo. So, getting the right guidance becomes impossible.
Look for practical ways of how masturbation affects you. Why do you want to conserve Sexual energy? And look for your own practical experience.
9. Set Small Goals
Take up Small Goals to avoid masturbation like aiming for some hours, days, months, and then years. This way it will not look like a huge mountain that is impossible to climb.
10. Avoid Your Triggers
Avoid Sexually stimulating content
Avoid Friends who talk about sexual content most of the time
Treat any ‘Girl’ as your ‘Sister’ and any ‘Woman’ as your ‘Mother’
Avoid Using a Mobile phone most of the time
11. Chemistry of Masturbation
Masturbation helps us to feel good, no doubt in that because it releases Feel Good Chemicals or Hormones. These are Serotonin(positive mood), Dopamine(Rewarding hormone), Endorphins(Stress releasing), Oxytocin(Love hormone), and Testosterone(Increases Stamina and Strength).
So, after releasing feel-good hormones through masturbation we feel more relaxed, happy, focused, and concentrated. But remember we are using our vital energies for this purpose. So, we have alternatives to masturbation where we can get the same effect and more sustainable. Because this effect is very short- time and temporary. So, let's look for things in the long- term and how they will benefit us.
Things we can do to release the same good hormones are Watching good movies, Reading an inspiring book, Working for a Cause in an NGO or yourself(if you want to help me you can do that too), pursuing a Hobby, Playing Sports and doing exercise, studying your favorite subject etc.
Yes, you have the freedom to masturbate or not. It’s an individual Choice. I would say experience yourself these things. Then only believe in it.
Please share these things with your friends or any 10 people random on Instagram who is on the Nofap journey.
