Psychological Effects of Smoking - How can I Quit Smoking?
It is rare to come across a smoker
that doesn’t know the harmful effects smoking has on their
health. Just knowing that smoking is bad for you usually isn’t
enough to make you quit smoking. It may motivate you to want to
quit but in itself isn’t usually enough to make you quit.
Knowing the reasons to quit smoking and the various quit smoking
products on the market doesn’t always provide the means and
opportunity to finally quit smoking and remain smoke free.
There needs to be more and if you truly want to know how to quit
smoking you need to confront the lies that you have come to
believe over many years of smoking. So then how can I quit
smoking?
Think about it this way. Have you
ever been told that you can’t have something that you really
want? Sure you have, we all have. Being told that we can’t
have something makes us even want it more. This is similar to
what we experience when we are told we should or need to quit
smoking. We think we are missing out on something good. When
in fact it is just the opposite. As we begin to devalue smoking
and confront many of the misconceptions we have about smoking we
can then begin to quit smoking. The motivation to quit smoking
is already in you, now you need to focus on your desire to quit
smoking.
You must come to realize that just
because you stop smoking you won’t be missing out on anything.
Over the years you have developed psychological beliefs about
smoking that make you think smoking is your friend or beneficial
at times. If you want to quit smoking this is what you need to
undo to get started. Begin by preparing yourself by believing
that smoking is not your friend and there are several different
ways to get through life, happily, without smoking.
I remember before I quit smoking
that I struggled with this concept. I was fearful that by
giving up cigarettes I would be missing out on some of the good
things in life. I wanted to quit and at the same time, I
didn’t. I was completely brainwashed into believing that I
needed to smoke in order to be happy. It wasn’t until I came
across Peter Howell’s quit smoking program the “EasyQuit System”
that I was able to undo the beliefs that were keeping me a slave
to smoking. If you struggle with quitting smoking and the
psychological effects of smoking I would highly encourage you to
pick up Peter Howell’s book. Not only will it help you deal
with lies about smoking but it will provide you the means to
actually quit smoking. It did for me. Learn how to break the psychological desire to smoke and regain control over your life and health!
