The 'HALT' method changed everything for me

My therapist taught me the HALT method — before reaching for a drink, ask yourself: Am I **H**ungry, **A**ngry, **L**onely, or **T**ired? 9 times out of 10, my cravings were actually one of these. Once I started addressing the real need (eating a snack, calling a friend, taking a nap), the craving passed. Combined with the ResetPoint trigger logging, I can now see the pattern clearly. Most of my "cravings" were actually just hunger or exhaustion.

My trigger map data confirmed this exactly. 80% of my cravings were when I was tired or hungry. Mind blown.

HALT is brilliant. I'd add 'B' for Bored — BHALT. Boredom is my #1 trigger and it took me weeks to figure that out.
