No Willpower Depletion
Small daily reductions don't trigger the stress response that cold turkey does. Your brain adapts gradually.
Sustainable Habits
Habits formed slowly are more likely to stick. Quick fixes lead to quick relapses.
Dopamine Recalibration
Your brain's reward system needs time to adjust to lower stimulation levels.
Relapse-Friendly
If you slip up, you haven't lost everything. Just continue from where you were.
