A research-based approach to dealing with cravings by letting them go past rather than trying to “turn them off” – either by an act of will or by giving in to them. Basically, it’s about creating a space between the thought/feeling and the action, and being OK with pausing in that space. 

This is very similar to the “welcoming practice” that I’ve used to deal with powerful feelings.
