The most effective way I've found to overcome habitual desires/cravings is contemplating impermanence (anicca). Throughout the day, if you see everything, including the body and thoughts, as fleeting and not good enough (compared to eternal spiritual things), everything in the world loses its appeal.

The condition of an expanding and technologically progressive system of mass-production is universal craving. Advertising is the organized effort to extend and intensify craving...
-- Aldous Huxley (The Perennial Philosophy)

Le craving, ce n’est pas “juste une envie de boire”.
C’est ce moment où ton cerveau te pousse vers l’alcool,
même quand une partie de toi veut sincèrement arrêter.
Mais la réalité est souvent bien plus complexe.
Si tu traverses ça en silence :
tu n’es pas seul.

une promesse que l’on ne peut pas tenir ,
ne serait qu’un vœux qu’on veut réaliser ,
c’est pourquoi l’on fait vœux de chasteté ,
ou encore que l’on fait vœux de pauvreté ,
car on sait bien qu’on risque de le trahir ,
car contre notre nature on ne peut lutter ,
ainsi c’est comme un dépendant repenti ,
qui, contre son vice luttera, toute sa vie ,
