There’s a psychological technique where you imagine facing a situation and responding in the desired way in the imagination . “someone trying to stop procrastinating imagines starting their work when they feel like avoiding it”. If this is used to help sins or bad desires , is it shirk or bid‘ah

Ustadh AbdulAziz al-Haqqan

It is neither, it is just true means that are taken to stop procrastination and bad habits.
