Makes it "ridiculously easy" to become a non-smoker!,
By Cuddlecakes (Paris, Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews
Ce commentaire est de: Only Way To Stop Smoking Permanently (Paperback)
As a smoker for over 20 years, I never thought I could quit...I could not imagine not needing to smoke. Then my best friend quit and told me about this book she had read which "made it easy".So I got the book and now I too am a happy non-smoker! And it was EASY...no cravings, nothing! I never would have believed it could be so easy and painless. Not only do I feel better physically but my mental outlook has improved 100% too. Within minutes of having the last cigarette, I know that Mr. Carr's method was going to be successful because I had no urge to smoke! Not then and not now! My only suggestion for anyone who wants to use this book to quit is to set aside a couple of days without distractions to really focus on the contents (its alot of reading) and then quit. Carrs method requires you to be in a certain "headspace" and it just seems easier to get there by focusing completely on the book.(I started it on Friday night and quit on the following Sunday night.) I should add that I wasn't overly motivated to quit but after reading this book, I was able to stop cold turkey with NO PROBLEM (and I smoked over a pack a day!) I just wish I had read this book years ago! If you are a smoker, try this method, its easy, cheap (only the cost) of the book and most important, IT WORKS!

The Only Way to Quit!,

Ce commentaire est de: Only Way To Stop Smoking Permanently (Paperback)
I have been cig free for over 2 years now with no desire to ever have another cancer stick again. I read Allen's smaller stop smoking book initially and then read this edition and the rest is history. This book costs less than 2 packs of smokes. Open your mind and use the 3K a year you save for something beneficial.

No one can make you quit smoking; I was ready to quit, but having tried before, and failed - the last time 6 months after having quit, I needed an approach that dealt with why we smoke. This book helps you to quit if you are ready, mainly be focusing on the removal of the brainwashing we receive that we need to keep smoking to have a good life. The reason it is easy to quit is that the physical nicotine craving only lasts 3 days and is a short and easy thing to get through. It's the societal and psychological conditioning that we need to smoke, and that smoking gives us any benefit that keeps us hooked. Carr does a great job helping you to bring yourself to a place where you can deal with this aspect. You can quit easily if you have the right mindset to combat the psychological triggers and not see smoking as something you ever need to do again.Carr's key message that aided me in quitting was coming to grips with my smoking as a form of drug addiction, and seeing the smoke as no longer anything but a nicotine delivery system that gives nothing, and takes a lot. In particular, when I read the book I realized that I have never truly been able to relax since starting to smoke 9 years ago, and have been a slave for all that time. It has only been 3 days, but I truly feel free as long as I keep my mind right on this subject and keep redressing the feelings and desire to smoke with Carr's excellent and all to true points. If you want to quit, try the book. Carr encourages you to keep smoking all through it, so there is no fear in at least reading the thing. I think it is the only tool to actually help you get there, avoid the horrors of the willpower method and nicotine substitutes, and actually feel good about the decision (which we should). I have seen a review that says that the book didn't work for them, I would suggest reading the book again, or trying at another time when you are ready to quit, when you are actually open to the ideas in the book.
