There are many ways to say this, and I want to explicitly explain this, so people don’t get confused.

This can be said in many ways such as:

Allowing it without acting upon it
Let it be
Dismiss the urge
Accept it without acting on it
Live your life
Accept it but don’t act on it
Accept it without giving in
“Ignore” it
“Resist” it
Ride the wave
Surf the urge
Cope with the urge
Be with it.

These are pretty much the same, although I do recognize that there are different connotations and cognitive implications involved, although the behavioral implications are basically the same. On a neuroscientific level, as long as the psychological struggle is not exaggerated by an individual’s adoption of any particular strategy over another, then I would say they would all work basically the same way by breaking up stimulus from response. The differences in these phrases are subtle, such as “allowing” inviting a softening, which is why it is my phrase of choice.
