Craving Management

Craving management involves recognizing and effectively handling urges to engage in certain behaviors or consume specific substances, often linked to habits or addiction. It includes techniques such as mindfulness to observe cravings without acting on them, distraction to shift focus, and developing healthy alternatives to replace the urge. The goal is to reduce the intensity and frequency of cravings over time, supporting individuals in making healthier choices and preventing relapse. This approach is often part of broader behavioral strategies used in addiction treatment, emphasizing awareness, self-control, and sustainable lifestyle changes.
