Aversion therapy is just another way of deciding that you do not want something for yourself. You have created the maggot-filled glass and have chosen to reject it. You could have done the same thing with the glass of wine if you first realize that it is your own creation, which you are free to accept or reject, based on whether the wine serves you or not.

This is different from "resisting", in the sense that with resisting, you are trying to resist a desire for wine. In doing so, you are guaranteeing that the desire will always be there.
