methods to quit smoking cigarettes

Most smokers would love to easily quit smoking, actually studies have shown that more than 80% of smokers would quit if they knew of an easy way to quit smoking.

I have personally been checking out how much people are searching online for ways to quit smoking easily, and have come up with a good number of results, but this is not an article on keyword research or the like, so I will not bore you anymore than say it is rather high numbers, and around new year its actually doubling up every year.

Most materials you find online is based around why you should quit, and the benefits of quitting, and you really find a lot of great advice out there.

Every method will require some effort and willpower on your part, but the good news is there are ways that works, some better than others.

We are all different as individuals and not every method works for all people, so in order to find what works you may have to try several methods on your way to becoming a non-smoker.

As I have already mentioned there is a lot of material about why you should quit, but not much of it tells you how. Motivating you by just telling you that you are slowly killing yourself, doesn't really do the trick. Actually it just hammers through the message that you are killing yourself to your subconscious, and most people realise that what they "know" to be true, tends to be just that, TRUE

Instead of telling you how you harm yourself, you would be a lot better off if you were told how to actually quit. And I have researched a few ways that really works, and if you go to the recommended page below, you will be able to read my recommendations for ways to quit.

The programs that really work, are not really to be found for free online. unless you do a lot of research, and put the information from a lot of different sites together, plus adds some creative thinking, that way you might be able to come up with a working solution, but that is a lot of hard work, not to mention the testing afterwards.

If you ever do, please let me know via the contact page at my site, and will be happy to review it and give you my honest opinion about it.

If you are serious about becoming a non smoker, you have to adapt a different attitude towards smoking, You have to change the way you think about smoking, in order for you to effortlessly quit smoking. Becoming a "recreational" or "party" smoker will not work either, you have to decide to quit once and for all, or you will just keep the nicotine dependency you have gotten from smoking.

However I will tell you right here that getting rid of the nicotine cravings is relatively easy to do, the hard part of becoming a non-smokers is breaking the habit patterns, and start thinking and feeling differently about smoking. Do that, and you can easily become a former smoker, and stay that way for the rest of your life.

When quitting you should remember that you are not only fighting the nicotine addiction, but even worse, you are fighting your subconscious mind, and the power of habits.

Since the American Medical Association (AMA) approved the use of clinical hypnosis in the 1950's, hundreds of thousands of people have found hypnosis to be an effective way to stop smoking, lose weight, and otherwise improve their lives. For smoking cessation, many hypnotists now even offer a one-time, half-hour individualized session. Since most insurance typically does not cover for hypnosis, the fee-for-service for this half-hour session can be more affordable than other treatments. Although some people may benefit from group hypnosis, most appear to find individual sessions as preferable.

Each singular session often consists of a brief discussion of one's prior smoking behavior and common reasons why people might initially smoke; a discussion of the hypnotic process; reinforcement of one's conscious motivators for wanting to quit; and a simple hypnotic trance induction with a post-hypnotic suggestion for smoking cessation. Most are quite susceptible to hypnotic suggestion, if it's consistent with something desired.

It is not uncommon for many two-pack a day, twenty-plus years smokers to quit, after their first session. Subsequent to in-person treatment, following-up with a self-hypnosis audio program for smoking cessation is recommended. Reinforcing the hypnotic suggestions by listening to your self-hypnosis recording daily, for at least two weeks, should help to ensure a more positive treatment outcome.

Since 1992, according to New Scientist, it has been known that "Hypnosis is the most effective way of giving up smoking." Its quote was based upon a study cited within the Journal of Applied Psychology, earlier that same year.

There even exists evidence based clinical research that single-session hypnosis can be just as effective (if not more effective) than any other smoking cessation treatment program available. Although I often recommend combining hypnosis sessions with another treatment approach, which your family physician or pharmacist can recommend, it is not a necessity for efficacy

The best indicators of success, with this approach to quitting, are one's prior ability to have successfully quit for at least one month; and one's desire today to be smoke-free. Self-hypnosis audio recordings and smoking cessation readings appear to serve as a nice complement to the individualized session. The Internet provides an array of free quit smoking aides, including smoking cessation MP3 downloads!

This article describes how creating a goal or target can help you to succeed in life. I myself want to be successful in life and have read many books on the subject. One lesson and something all the successful people I have read about seem to do, is that they are always setting themselves goals for the future. Setting targets has among other things helped me to quit smoking cigarettes. I hope you enjoy reading my article.

One example I clearly remember from one such book, described a survey that had been carried out for schoolchildren who were in their final year of high school. One hundred people took part in the survey and they were asked to answer a number of questions. The main question the people who commissioned the survey were interested in was about where the children wanted to be in five years time and what they wanted to be doing, for example in their business life.

Not all children of this age are that mature and in the end there were only five answers which were taken as being a true goal for the future. Five years later these one hundred people were contacted again and were asked to fill in yet another survey. The results were quite staggering as the five children who had set a goal for the future had a higher combined net worth than the other ninety five added together. Money of course is not everything in life, however for me this showed, that is if you believe everything that you read, that you are more likely to be a success in life if you set yourself a goal.

I then looked at the aspects of my life with which I was not happy with. At that age, I smoked around fifteen cigarettes a day. This was something I quite enjoyed but which I knew was not healthy for me and something which also cost me a lot of money.

I set myself small targets, I would firstly reduce my intake to only ten a day and after two weeks reduce it down to five. I would then try to totally stop smoking after around a month.

This sounded so simple, however proved to be quite difficult. I was determined to stick to my goals and kept thinking of all of the benefits of quitting smoking. I am happy to say I was successful in my quest to stop smoking, even though it did take rather longer than one month.

I have since followed the same pattern in other areas of my life, to help me to lose weight for example. This attitude has helped me to no end and I will continue to set myself more goals in the future.
