Stop Smoking Easily - No Longer a Frustrating Pipedream!
Written by V Pender on 11/17/2008Stop
smoking easily. Reality, or a contradiction in terms?
Despite the
vice-like addictive grip of the smoking habit, it is, nowadays, entirely possible to stop smoking easily, quickly and
permanently using nothing but the power of the mind.
“Smoking
Causes Lung Cancer, Heart Disease, Emphysema, and may complicate Pregnancy.”
“Smoking
can cause a slow and painful death.”
Despite
statutory warnings as dramatic as this in the US and the UK, there are still
plenty of us who just can’t seem to give up on the habit, no matter how hard we
try. Finding a way to stop smoking easily has, until recently, been about as
challenging and elusive as the search for the holy grail.
Smoking
always starts out as a curiosity quencher. After “trying it out” the first
time, the second and third times come quickly, heralding the start of a regular
routine that is very costly in more ways than one.
The
seriousness of the effects of smoking would, one could reason, be enough to see
people giving up in their droves. Everyone knows by now that smoking is clearly
linked to diseases like lung, mouth and throat cancer, heart disease and
premature tooth decay, to name but a few. Nonetheless, most of us who smoke continue
to persist with a habit that we tacitly acknowledge is an insidious killer, not
to mention unpleasant and potentially dangerous for those around us.
Why?
Whereas
getting into the routine is child’s play, getting out of it, or quitting
smoking, can be hellishly difficult and enormously stressful. Many people will
find that to stop smoking is every bit as tough as giving up any other form of
substance abuse such as alcohol, marijuana, prescription and other drugs.
To
complicate matters, withdrawal symptoms are common after quitting. Mood swings,
sleeplessness, cramping of the muscles, cravings and coughing are good
examples. These nasty effects are
often laid at the door of the substance called nicotine (or lack of it) that is
known to cause addiction. But the truth is that cigarettes have been found to
contain thousands of chemicals, many of which may be toxic and/or addictive.
And
to add a final insult to the injury, those who successfully stop smoking often
find themselves ballooning in weight as they distract themselves from their
erstwhile habit with frequent snacks and various other ‘munchies’. These extra
‘treats’ and the cost of the various pills, patches and gums that many use to
assist the process, often wipe out the financial gains from quitting.
But
in all the gloom, there is some great news for those of us – and our loved ones
– who long to ‘ditch the weed’. There are programs on the market today that can
help people to stop smoking easily and quickly, without the use of supplements
and nicotine replacement aids while sidestepping all the hated withdrawal
symptoms and avoiding weight gain. It sounds almost too good to be true but the
truth is that these programs have remarkably high success rates.
The
secret to success lies within each and every one of us. As it is proving to be
the case in so many areas of our lives nowadays, our very own personal belief
system and our frame of reference for what we think is possible and not
possible holds the key to making dramatic and lasting changes.
And,
slowly but steadily, smokers are coming to realize that the search for a magic
pill, patch or drug is not the answer. The only approach that really does bear
fruit in the honorable quest to stop smoking easily is (with a little help) to
look within.
One
of the programs that has taken this new approach to conquering smoking
addiction and has proven to be extremely reliable and successful
