Tip 8: Coping with Urges

Go to a quiet place and meditate.  One simple method might be to close your eyes and stare out into space, visualizing the urge as a concrete object (it doesn't matter what it is).  Concentrate on it for several minutes.  As you hold the object in your mind, visualize it breaking up into tiny pieces.  Your urge to gamble will disintegrate with it.
