Hi Lonely travellerBad habits, still, but more so in the past, is my problem, rather than cravings.
DEpression and anxieties have prevailed and the best lesson I ever learned was to work on giving up the blame game.
By attempting to look at, organize and rearrange unproductive thinking patterns (cognative therapy) has helped.
I imagine there is a Buddhist name for this, I do not know it. Also I use acronyms to help with negative inner chatter.
As for cakes as a rotting mouldy mess, I would be worried the vizualization would put me off them permanently.
