Most Effective Tools To Quit Smoking

6:20 PM By No comments

Every year, as the calendar changes back to January, thousands, if not millions of people make the resolution to quit smoking. Often these same people make the same resolution every year, but then fall back into their same old destructive habits. Statistics show that most people who quit need more than one try to be successful. Perhaps these people should explore some of the products that are available to help them quit smoking successfully.
1. hypnosis

 Many people have had great success using hypnosis to stop smoking. This strategy is one treatment that can help you develop the strength to get rid of the nasty habit once and for all. Being hypnotized can, in theory, help you remove the need and desire to smoke, which can help you break the habit of picking up the cigarettes every time you feel you need one. However, this technique will not work for everybody, as everyone is not open to being hypnotized.


2. Cold Turkey
Perhaps the most common method of all is probably least expected - quitting outright. It's said that your mind takes an average of 7 tries before you can successfully quit smoking - but each time it learns and becomes better for the next. Quitting cold turkey means you smoke one day and put them down the next - forever. While it seems like that would take a lot of willpower, it can actually be easier in some ways. For one, you are not extending the addiction cycle for weeks on end like with NRT. Also, you are not reinforcing your triggers by smoking at a reduced rate. That being said, however, it does take a lot of willpower all at once.
3. Natural Herbal Remedies
There are a multitude of natural herbs and plants which target your neuro-chemical system in a manner similar to prescription drugs or NRT, but without as many side effects. These include Lobelia, Passion Flower, Vitamin B12, 5-htp, Valerian, and many others. Many communities exist on the Internet (forums) in which you can find guidance from other people who are currently or have previously used these successfully. A word of caution - While they're almost always cheaper, sometimes herbs can be more dangerous than medication.
