I think awareness and mental toughness is really the only cure. TDM Brice you are right about sometimes being too close to the desire. I think awareness and mental toughness is really the only cure.

Taking each moment of desire to inspect it from all angles and from different perspectives really helps to take control. I also began running in the mornings. There is nothing more stimulating than exercise. Coffee to me is like any other vice, it’s hard to see clearly how it affects oneself while viewing it too close.

I shop at tea shops, mostly oriental stores have them. So I have more than 12 jars of varied green teas mixes labelled: jasmine, roasted rice, mint, rose, apple etc. First, with the varied types it allows me to choose according to my mood. So i can wake up in the morning and choose any of the varied kinds. Coffee branded this according to geographic regions.. Since switching nearly two years ago, then I have noticed the vices of coffee. Yesterday, by the way I drank one cup out of curiosity-- and I noticed the effects instantly. I knew before the consequence of the drink but I thought why not today? Effects: One tends to 'hype', you have energy and tend to over-excited or anxious and then when the coffee has diminished from your body-- your energy is low again. This is where the kick is-to go back again and again. Personally, I tend to be exhausted more when I drink coffee and you find yourself drinking less of water! The quick remedy is to detoxify by drinking lots of water that day you drink coffee. If you can't stand the taste of water, I have invited a simple way that I mix it with low sugar fruit juice concentrate and I usually drink a daily of 1.5 L mix! This mix does not have the corn syrup and has been diluted but it makes the water more palatable. Secondly, the best way to quit on coffee you need to know the reactions to your body-- you need to listen to your body and actions. That is the key- i agree meditation as a way to listen to your body is one way of understanding the effects of coffee. I honestly noticed my body reactions and I decided that I treat my body as a mass of living cells that are wanting the best in this world. So why should I damp it with short-term shots? I am better off drinking green tea for the long-term benefits of taking care of my living cells and listening to their needs. That is how I got out of this habit. When one visualizes the living cells in one's body either screaming when one drinks or tasting anything is not worth to one's body well being then that is one way to get of out of addictive habit! Imagine these billlion cells are living and they can be happy or sad and also have a voice. So when they say NO they say jointly !

I had quit caffeine entirely in the past for a period of about three months, but fell back into the habit for no good reason. It is time to cleanse again and stay off the caffeine for good. Of course, the more important thing to get rid of is the corn syrup that's in the soda and sweetened tea. It's fattening and horrible for you. I will most likely still drink unsweetened tea (hot or cold) every now and then for some flavor. In any case, great post. I have your eBook and like the idea of using meditation to help. I'm going to give it a try. I don’t drink coffee, but I do consume a good amount of soda and sweetened tea.
