In today's episode, Sathiya explains the three dimensions of recovery – solo logic, trigger awareness, and origins. While the first two dimensions are useful, true long-term freedom will always take place in the third dimension. There are three great questions to ask yourself if you want to tap into the third dimension and experience healing. If you can, pull out your journal and work through these questions as you listen to the episode – it just may lead to your next breakthrough.

Today's episode explores a common issue many men face today – people pleasing. Ironically, people pleasing behavior is usually done to protect the relationship, when in reality, it causes long-term damage. If you cannot show up authentically in a relationship, it will suffer. This episode gives you the following four questions to ask yourself if you are struggling with people pleasing behavior of any kind, using a personal example from Sathiya's life to illustrate their application: 1) What am I afraid of? 2) What lie is driving my fear? 3) What is the truth? 4) What does it look like to act on the truth?

If you've ever engaged in pornography, you know that it can be a slippery slope. Thresholds for pleasure and content intensity can increase, leading us to places we never imagined were possible. It is important to know that for starters, you are not defined by what you watch, no matter how dark/intense it may be. There are neurological concepts at play that often drive us to these places, namely: 1) Novelty enhances pleasure 2) Neural associations form in moments of curiosity Today's episode deep dives into these two concepts, using personal stories and examples to illustrate the power they have in addiction.

A lot of the messaging in this podcast and DeepClean can come across as "anti-filter", when in reality, internet filters can have an essential place in the porn recovery process. The mistake men commonly make is relying exlusively on the filter – this can lead to disastrous outcomes. When a filter is supplementary to an inner transformation process (program, counseling, coaching, etc), it can be highly beneficial, provided it is used appropriately. Today's episode explains exactly how you can do that.

Generally speaking, people are quick to lump sexual interests, orientation and identity into one, when in reality these are three distinct subjects. Today's podcasts provides an overview of each concept while explaining how they can work separately and in conjunction with one another. A few important takeaways:  -Sexual interests are conditioned and changeable -Just because you watch same sex porn doesn't mean you are homosexual -Novelty and anxiety enhance pleasure - they do not necessarily indicate orientation Your Brain On Porn by Gary Wilson Be a part of our podcast interviews by becoming a DeepClean VIP Member Get your free copy of The Ultimate Recovery Guide For Porn Addiction (URG) at www.ultimaterecoveryguide.com

You can only truly remedy pain and discomfort by embracing them – both persist as long as they are ignored or simply tolerated. Today's episode uses personal examples to explain the power of surrender and its necessity for breakthrough and growth. While logic tells us to simply endure pain, exercise willpower, or devise tactics to make it through, embracing pain head on goes a much further way to bringing about the results we want in any area of our personal development.
