Urge Surfing FAQs
What is Urge Surfing?
- Adopting an open and curious attitude toward the urge
- Visualizing the urge as a wave that rises in intensity, peaks, and crashes
- "Riding out" the craving or impulse, rather than fighting it (fighting them only feeds them!)
- Paying attention to and making note of physical sensations in your body, and how they change over time
- Engaging in careful and controlled breathing
- Remaining curious and present during your practice
When should I practice Urge Surfing?
You can practice urge surfing any time you feel a craving coming on. Urge surfing is a good activity for those experiencing an urge to indulge in a food that is rewarding to them but who wish to "ride out" the urge.
Why should I practice Urge Surfing (rather than resisting or distracting)?
Urges, by definition, are temporary and borne out of habit. They will only strengthen or recur if you feed them.
How can I practice Urge Surfing?
If you're in a pinch and don’t have time to listen to our guided audio sessions, start with the steps outlined below. Be sure you are surfing only one urge at a time!
-
Close your eyes: if possible, in order to limit distractions -
Watch the breath: breathe normally, without alteration; "watch" as your chest rises and falls; as thoughts surface, gently refocus your attention on the breath -
Focus on the body: where do you feel the urge? What does it feel like? Try to describe it (e.g., tightness, burning, softness). Does it change with the breath? -
Picture the urge as a wave: is it strong and unpredictable? Is it slow and steady? Watch it as it peaks, crests, and subsides -
Practice viewing the urge non-judgmentally: it is only a sensation, after all! -
Be patient; praise yourself for trying!: self-regulation strengthens willpower; the more you practice, the more skilled you will become, and the easier it will be!
