Could your mindset be holding you back on your porn recovery journey?

Here’s some food for thought.

Consider how life coaching has evolved into a massive billion dollar industry in the past five years.

Mindset and porn recovery

Mindset or “life coaches” enable athletes, entrepreneurs, creatives, and even cancer warriors to conquer their mindset challenges! Otherwise, a toxic mindset may hold them back from reaching their goals. 

“Mindset matters, so it is important to pay attention to your belief systems—where they come from, how valid they are, and how they impact your quality of life.”  Stanford.edu

Maybe you’ve tried to quit porn more times than you can count. Behind the scenes, we’ve heard you say: 

  • “I feel so trapped by porn.” 
  • “Porn is destroying my relationships and my time.” 
  • “The guilt and shame are eating me alive.”

You’re longing to do more. Be more. And live life to the fullest, totally free from porn. So how do you break free?

For many, the act of becoming accountable to someone else about their online activity is life-changing. However, a growing number of people have been hooked on porn since their early teens. Long term negative brain patterns often hijack their success in quitting porn.  

Rewire negative brain patterns

We want to help you quit porn permanently. Research shows that lasting change is possible by rewiring brain patterns affecting your mindset! 

So, we developed Ascend. It’s a 30-day online porn recovery program that takes about 30 minutes a day. We hired world-class experts in sexual health and personal growth, because having the proper knowledge is power! 

Ascend guides you step by step on a journey of self-discovery. You will gain tools to empower you in weak moments. You begin changing from the inside out. 

Truth be told, improving your mindset will help you face many different obstacles life throws your way. Quitting porn is no exception.

How to start improving your mindset during porn recovery

First, overcoming obstacles and challenges requires taking a long hard look at ourselves. Some questions you should be asking include:

  • Where am I headed on my porn recovery journey? 
  • What does life look like if I reach my goals? 
  • What is going well? 
  • Is anything holding me back?
  • How can I improve my chances of success?

However, it’s easy to get “stuck in the weeds” when seeking to answer these questions without some expert guidance.

That’s where our 30-day online porn recovery program, Ascend, shines. 

You’ll begin to identify your own negative mindset patterns, ask the right questions, and rewire your brain for success.

How it works: paradigm shift as a porn recovery tool

According to MerriamWebster.com, a paradigm shift is: An important change that happens when the usual way of thinking about or doing something is replaced by a new and different way.”  

Essentially, you’ll look at your porn recovery process with new eyes and new tools for change. By changing your focus, your perceptions change! 

“Our perception can be both empowering and limiting. It can lead us to opportunities or hold us back from achieving our goals.” ~ Itayi Garande, Paradigm Shift: Change Your Mindset and Live the Life of Your Dreams 

Ascend shows you the next logical step on your porn recovery journey 

Ascend will guide you through each new step in only 15 – 30 minutes daily.

While much of the program can be done by popping in your earbuds, you’ll want to set aside time to do the focused written work.

Writing down essential things is part of the brain rewiring process. 

Start by doing what’s necessary; then do what’s possible; and suddenly you’re doing the impossible.”– Francis of Assisi

Ascend enables you to focus on what is possible (instead of shame)

Often shame is at the core of our failures. That’s why overcoming shame is essential for progress! 

“Shame is a primary means to prevent us from using the gifts we have been given.” ~ Curt Thompson, MD, psychologist and author of The Soul of Shame

Instead, Ascend helps you focus on gaining clarity of purpose in your life. You begin flourishing as you adopt a growth mindset. Who do you wish to become? Why?


“Ascend helped me learn to control urges. It helped me learn to think differently…Ascend helped me make the shift to thinking about what I wanted to become instead.” ~ Sam S.
