The cause of a relapse is the same as the cause of any binge eating episode: an urge to binge.

[I]f my lower brain sends out an urge in the future, I will know exactly what to do: I will listen to it with detachment, and I won’t react emotionally to it or act on it.

All I had to do was listen with detachment until [my thoughts] fizzled out, which took only a matter of minutes.

To prevent relapse, all I have to do is never act on an urge to binge, ever.

My thoughts were not dangerous at all. I could easily choose to listen curiously but not react to or act on them.

My thoughts remained just that—thoughts—and they didn't affect what I chose to do.

Knowing that my thoughts were automatic allowed me to prevent the cascade of reactions in my body, stopped the wave from happening.
