You Are Not Addicted, You Are Dysregulated

The Nervous System Behind Every Craving

160 Seiten, Taschenbuch

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Your phone is not the problem.

Neither is sugar, the scrolling, or your apparent lack of willpower. What actually broke is quieter and far more fixable: a nervous system trained, day after day, to treat stillness as a threat.

This is not another dopamine detox book asking you to give things up and white-knuckle your way through. It's a manual for the system underneath the craving, built on two things that rarely get put in the same room: modern neuroscience and the yogic tradition's much older map of breath, attention, and desire.

Inside, you'll find:

- Why "just use more willpower" was never going to work, and what a dysregulated nervous system is actually asking for- Five breath-based practices, fully explained for complete beginners, that retrain the reward system from the inside out- A ground-level tour through the places seeking actually shows up: sleep, eating, digital life, work, pleasure, and the quiet compulsion to check for social proof- The real difference between genuine desire and compulsive seeking, and why collapsing the two keeps you stuck in the loop>This book will not ask you to quit your phone, your job, or your life. It asks you to understand the mechanism clearly enough that the reaching itself starts to loosen on its own.

If you've already tried the 30-day detox, the app blockers, and sheer willpower, and you're still reaching for something before you've even decided to, this is the book that explains why, and gives you an actual, practical alternative.
