Deprogramming Is Harder Than Quitting Heroin

The things you were taught before you could even question them run deeper than most people realize. Your diet. Your relationships. Your faith. Your fears. Going against ingrained programming doesn't just feel uncomfortable — it can feel like withdrawal. Paul, Claudia, and Dee break down why change is so hard, why people self-medicate to avoid facing it, and what it actually takes to build something new in its place. Including why 21 days was never the real number.Takeaways:Ingrained programming operates from the subconscious — you don't even notice it's controlling you until you try to change itPeople self-medicate to cope with programming they no longer resonate with but aren't ready to releaseYou can't just remove something — you need something to replace it with or the void winsThe real habit formation window is 66 days minimum, not 21Take change slow — cold turkey works for very few people and can actually be dangerousLinks referenced in this episode:iamastrologyreadings.comCompanies mentioned in this episode:IamastrologyreadingsPayPalVenmoCash AppSupport the mythic classroom: https://i-am-astrology-readings.captivate.fm/supportBook a Reading: https://i-am-astrology-readings.captivate.fm/book-reading#astrologyrideoftheday
