Do you get urges to eat certain foods?
Do you think such urges can be controlled?
Do you think ‘going cold turkey’ is best?
Or, is it perhaps something more like this …

However, restructuring the flow of the river, while much harder work to do, can transform intense pressure into manageable, even gentle flow.
