There are suggestions that stop/ reduce masturbation but we never hear how to stop or reduce masturbation. As I understand, controlling breath allows you to control your mind and mind controls your body. The best way appear to be to do abdominal breathing.(not chest breathing) This is natural breathing- infant breaths abdomenally  . In abdominal breathing abdomen swell out while inhaling and It deeps down while exhaling. If one does this type of breathing for 10 minutes twice a day, he develops control over his body and mind. For details on Google abdominal breathing.

You're masturbating sounds fine to me. As long as you are doing it for enjoyment, it doesn't hurt the skin of your penis or when you ***, then it is perfectly normal. Some people feel the need to masturbate more than others, and trust me, some people do it heck of a lot more than you do. If you're still worried, you can talk to your parents or even your doctor if you want, never be embarrassed, it's there job to help you :)

You're fine. You just want to not do so much in a week before you build a habit of doing it 2-3 times a day. Also, make sure you masturbating correctly.
