You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance. ~ Psalms 32:7 (NIV)
Take inventory of your body parts, from head to toe, and ask the question: "Is this body part being used to do something unrighteous?” Here's the trick: do not skip the private parts because chances are, those are the parts that are most compromised.
