Stop Smoking: How to Quit Smoking

[sheri bates]

So you want to quit smoking, do you?
It has been estimated that the average smoker has wasted over $400,000
in tobacco purchases and medical expenses by the age of 35.
So imagine what you could do if you did stop smoking!
How do you quit?
My name is Spencer and I am a nutritional wellness coach,
glyconutrients educator, and Christian minister. Allow me to help you
find an affordable and effective way to quit smoking that has worked
for many others.
First, you have to decide "WHY" you want to quit.
Make a list of the reasons WHY you want to stop. To stop smoking is
one of THE MOST healthy lifestyle changes that you can ever do. But
changing a habit takes determination. And changing an addictive habit
takes serious determination. It takes willpower. You have to put your
mind to it and do it. If you are one of those people that says, "I can
quit any time I want to", but you go right back to smoking a year
later, then you have not fully quit. Don't feel discouraged. You just
need to make this time your last time, for good.
You do not have to pay lots of money for hypnosis or for acupuncture
or even some expensive nicotine patch. Just let your friends know that
you are now serious about kicking the habit of smoking. Talk to a
couple of friends every day while you are in the process of quitting.
Now Where do You Get Started? Get started on a free program. I will
help you with that.
U.S. Surgeon General has reported that "nicotine is just as addictive
as heroin and Cocaine."
So you will want to take this seriously, because it is NOT going to
get any easier to quit if you procrastinate this.
One of the first people that I helped to quit smoking, always said
that she really wanted to quit smoking. But when I asked her, she
would say that she wanted to start her program once she had finished
her current new pack of cigarettes. I asked her how much the pack cost
her, and then offered to give her that amount of money to buy the pack
from her. I bought her cigarette pack from her, and then I crushed the
pack into pieces over the trash can.
Even if you do not care about your health, others do, and by you
smoking, there is a danger of second hand smoke for others. And the
worse part of it is that those that look up to you, may soon be
copying your dirty habit. I have worked with lots of people who I have
helped to stop smoking, who had been smoking for many years. It is not
easy, but I know that it is possible.
Getting Started:
You will want to remove all the things from your surroundings that
make you crave tobacco. This means that you will need to get rid of
the smells from your car, your clothes, your carpet and entire home.
That could mean throwing some things away, having the carpet cleaning
man come over, and taking a trip to the laundry mat in order to use
their industrial size washing machines. You may also need to stay away
from your favorite porch chair for a while, if that is where you do
most of your smoking.
Two really effective tips that many people overlook:
- Get rid of all of your ash trays.
- Stay away from the places where you normally buy your tobacco
products.
"Those once smoking a pack or more a day, who have given up smoking
for at least one year, have a death rate less than half that of those
who have continued smoking." - American Cancer Society
Some people like to get candies to put into their mouth, for whenever
they feel the urge to smoke. Sugar free is best. It is recommended
that you use cinnamon flavor, since that helps control the urge.
Before you start, get some cinnamon flavored candies and cinnamon
flavored mouth wash. Orange juice, or even better, grapefruit juice,
has shown to be especially helpful, due to the high vitamin C content.
Have the juice available in your refrigerator and wherever you go. Get
some healthy munchies. For example, maybe put a bag of those mini
carrots in your refrigerator.
Stay away from high fat foods, coffee, and alcohol, while you are
trying to quit. By doing this, you will be fighting some of the
natural triggers that have stopped you from quitting smoking in the
past.
A free program that has been used by over 20 million people, is called
the Five-Day Plan to Quit Smoking, put together by two Christians in
1964. And it is still being used today! The plan has been recognized
by the World Health Organization, the American Cancer Society, the
American Lung Association, and the American Heart Association. This
plan was put together by J.Wayne McFarland, M.D. and Elman J.
Folkenberg. There are some places that will charge you to do this
plan, with personal assistance, but you can download a find a free
copy on the internet and do it on your own at no cost too.
The plan takes you through a five day long, step-by-step program to
easily change your daily habits and achieve your goals to quit
smoking. Through psychological motivations and physical changes (such
as slight dietary modifications), the Five-Day Plan works to break
your nicotine cravings and smoking routine.
Cleanse Your System
Before you start with any program or plan, you will want to cleanse
your system. With the thousands of toxic chemicals that have been
dumped into your body from tobacco use, you will want to cleanse your
body from the buildup of toxins. This should result in a stronger
immune system and an energy boost. Here is a suggested supplement
formula for you to get started with, as soon as possible:
- Gastro-Intestinal Cleanse Supplement (to cleanse the toxins from
your body)
- High Quality Vitamin/Mineral Supplement (do not overlook this
overall health decision)
- Fiber Supplement (to go along with your daily fruits and vegetables)
- High Quality Antioxidant Supplement (to combat the years of cellular
damage from smoking)
- Cellular Communication Enhancement Supplement (to improve the immune
system and energy level)
I can help you to get all of these supplements easily, or you can get
them elsewhere. Just make sure that you research to make sure that you
are getting the best supplements at the best
value.
