Cold Turkey Course: Quit any Digital Addiction

Build a digital environment that protects your focus

Cold Turkey is one of the strongest blocking tools available for Windows and macOS. This course shows you how to use it properly — from your first block to a setup that is much harder to bypass when temptation hits.

Use it to reduce distractions, protect important work sessions, and make unwanted digital habits harder to access.

You can adapt the same system to habits involving social media, gaming, adult content, gambling, streaming, news, endless scrolling, or any website or application you want to control more intentionally.

During the course, you will:

• 💻 Install and configure Cold Turkey without overcomplicating the setup.
• 🚫 Create your first blocks for distracting websites and applications.
• 📋 Build practical block lists and schedules around your own goals, routines, and high-risk moments.
• 🛡️ Make your blocks harder to bypass so changing your mind in a weak moment is no longer effortless.
• ⚙️ Use advanced Cold Turkey features such as locked blocks, timers, allowances, and other protection options.
• 🧠 Turn Cold Turkey into a long-term system instead of relying on willpower every time a distraction appears.

This course is suitable for complete beginners as well as people who already use Cold Turkey but want a stronger and more intentional setup.

You do not need to block everything or turn your computer into a prison. The goal is to create enough protection around the habits that repeatedly steal your attention, while keeping access to the tools you genuinely need.

What can you use it for?

Cold Turkey can help you create stronger boundaries around:

• Social media
• Adult content
• Gaming
• Streaming
• Gambling and trading platforms
• News and endless feeds
• Email and messaging
• Distracting websites and applications

Who is this course for?

This course is for anyone who knows what they want to stop opening, but keeps finding themselves back there anyway.

It can be especially useful if you regularly disable softer blockers, ignore browser extensions, postpone important work, or find that a moment of temptation is enough to undo the limits you set earlier.

What you should have by the end

By the end of the course, you should have a working Cold Turkey setup built around your own digital habits — with clear blocks, schedules, and protection strategies that make distraction significantly harder to act on.

The goal is simple: less time fighting temptation, and more attention available for what you actually chose to do.
