Season 1 Episode 238 Published 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Description

Can your brain recover after years of pornography addiction? Even after quitting porn, cravings, low motivation, and old reward patterns can remain because your brain has spent years strengthening them.

Still having porn cravings after quitting? Find out what those cravings may reveal about your recovery with the FREE Miswired Desire Quiz.

Cognitive neuroscientist Dr. Trish Leigh explains what happens in the brain during porn addiction recovery and how neuroplasticity can strengthen healthier pathways over time.

Brain rewiring involves retraining how your reward system responds to dopamine, cravings, motivation, and real-life rewards. Dr. Leigh also explores what QEEG brain mapping may reveal about brain activity during porn recovery.
