This piece is all about my adventures in giving up smoking using the "Easy Way to Quit Smoking" method by Allen Carr.
I've been a non-smoker for three years now and I truthfully feel just like I have kicked the habit once and for all.
But it was not necessarily like this...
For several years I was a secret smoker and did not tell my folks about my habit.
I told myself that if they did not know it is a positive because then I would smoke less, but to be truthful i think i was just teasing myself.
The truth is that I felt sorry and cunning ... And also had tons of anxiety that they would find out my secret.
So for a year I tried an entire range of quit smoking methods including....
Patches - 1 month fail
Laser therapy - didn't even stop
Cold turkey - 2 day fail
I am so puny ;- )
Nothing appeared to work until my best friend got me the Allen Carr book for a birthday gift.
The important thing about Allen carr is that he used to be a chain smoker and then one day he gave up using hypnosis.
But he wasn't prepared to except that the hypnosis was magic, so he probably did an entire load of research and discovered the reasons that hypnosis can sometimes make giving up so easy.
Let me ask you a question...
Has there ever been a time in the time when you went for 3 or four hours without a smoke, and didn't even think about it. ?
Me too ;- )
What Allen did was discover how this works step-by-step, and how you can lengthen this relaxed feeling to make handing over a piece of cake.
His method is easy and it essentially goes like so :
1. Make a final, 100% decision to give up.
2. Be content that you don't have smoke anymore.
I know this sounds like a joke but there are some key ideas you want to learn before you can actually feel confident with what I just related.
Well I'm no exspert but for what it's worth, I think I was able to give up so simply because I first made the firm a hundred percent call never to smoke again, and then had the hypnosis course to help with the cravings.
If you are actually bored with smoking I believe this stuff might work for you too.
