The theme of this lesson is how to cope with feelings of incompleteness and uncertainty. In obsessive-compulsive disorder and impulsivity, the most painful part is often not a specific thought or action, but rather the feeling of being pulled along by an automatic cycle: a thought arises, anxiety rises, the body tenses, the impulse drives action, rituals or impulsive behaviors bring temporary relief, followed by new worries. Over time, people mistakenly believe that only repetition, checking, confirming, avoiding, or immediate action can make them feel safe. However, this temporary relief can also reinforce false alarms in the brain, making the next anxiety come even faster. Today's exercise is not about confronting the symptoms head-on, nor is it about blaming yourself for not being able to control them; rather, it's about understanding the mechanism. Please focus your attention on a specific situation: what is the trigger, what sentences appear in your mind, where is your body most tense, what does the impulse demand of you, and what is the outcome you truly fear? Simply writing down this chain of events moves you from passive involvement to active observation. Next, please choose a small change. It could be delaying your check by thirty seconds, skipping one confirmation step, taking three deep breaths before the impulse, or rewriting "I must deal with it immediately" into "I can observe first." Change doesn't need to be drastic, but it must be tangible. Recovery from compulsions and impulses doesn't rely on a single, forceful breakthrough, but on numerous, safe practices. Every time you're willing to pause for an extra second, record your actions one more time, or choose a gentler response, you're helping your brain establish new pathways. If anxiety increases during practice, remind yourself: increased anxiety doesn't mean danger is imminent, a sense of incompleteness doesn't mean I must immediately remedy the situation, and strong impulses don't mean I must obey. You can bring yourself back to your breath, the soles of your feet, the palms of your hands, and your immediate environment. The direction of recovery isn't to become someone without thoughts, but to become someone who, even with thoughts, can slowly choose how to live.

2. Recipe and Method

Recipe (1–2 servings):

  • 40 g of oats
  • 220 ml of milk
  • 1 teaspoon of chia seeds
  • A few diced blueberries or apples
  • A small amount of honey (optional)

practice:

  1. Wash the main ingredients thoroughly. Grains, beans, or lotus seeds can be soaked in advance to make them softer.
  2. First, put the ingredients that need to be cooked for a long time into the pot, add enough water, bring to a boil over high heat, then turn to low heat and simmer.
  3. Depending on how quickly the ingredients cook, add vegetables, tofu, eggs, fish, or seasonings in that order, and simmer over low heat or stir gently.
  4. Once the ingredients are cooked until tender and the soup or porridge is lukewarm, add a small amount of salt, honey, or rock sugar to taste, avoiding making it too salty or sweet.
  5. After turning off the heat, let it sit for 2–3 minutes to allow the temperature to drop slightly before serving in a bowl to avoid stimulating eating.
  6. When eating, try to eat slowly, pausing for a moment with each bite to observe the aroma, temperature, taste, and your body's reaction.
  7. It can be served as breakfast, dinner, or a recovery meal after practice, with the focus on stability rather than complexity.

3. Small rituals for body and mind

Before preparing the ingredients, stop and take three slow breaths, reminding yourself: "This meal is not a task, but care."“

During the cooking process, try to keep your movements steady, don't rush to finish, and don't repeatedly check until you're exhausted. Just confirm the necessary steps.

When you take your first bite, you can tell yourself, "I allow myself to take it slow, and I allow today to be imperfect." Let eating become a process of practicing acceptance and stabilization.

4. Dietary Therapy Experience Record

  1. Record your emotional state before consuming the product, such as anxiety, irritability, fatigue, impulsiveness, repetitive thinking, or physical tension.
  2. Record any changes in stomach comfort, satiety, mood intensity, and urgency within 30–60 minutes after consumption.
  3. Observe whether you can reduce the need for repeated confirmation during the preparation and eating process, and bring your attention back to the taste, temperature and the current action.
