Let your urge to skin pick pass naturally with urge surfing.

Developed in 1985, urge surfing is a low-risk mindfulness skill that helps you ride out anxious urges until they pass like a wave.

  • Start by noticing that moment of discomfort — maybe it’s tension, anxiety, or the itch to pick, scroll, or eat. That’s the wave starting to rise.

  • Don’t push it away and let the sensation grow. Breathe into it. Stay present and observe without judgment.

  • Every urge rises and falls. Ride it out like a wave. YKeep tapping or fidgeting for 2–4 minutes—let the urge rise and fall like a wave without acting on it. This is urge surfing.
