Many people who smoke cigarettes do not believe they are actually addicted and the reality is that they are. Use these tips to break the habit and addiction of smoking cigarettes.
If you smoke a pack a day or less; pick a day, wrap your head around the process of quitting and your commitment to quit and then just do it on that day.
If you smoke more than a pack a day, it is very helpful, even safer, to taper down to under a pack before you actually quit.
If you have other addictions it becomes a little bit more complicated. Addictions such as alcohol, cocaine, meth, quit those other addictions first. Most people don't like hearing that, but the problem is these other addictions can often create triggers to smoke cigarettes, so you can end up going back and forth if you don't quit these other addictions first..
Your body is already expert at making you a non-smoker. The body detoxes you of nicotine in as little as 48 hours. So your body has been trying to make you a non-smoker between every cigarette you have ever smoked.
It is the habit that is the bigger hook for most people. This, of course, combines with nicotine as the addictive process, which then perpetuates the cycle. Hypnosis and self-hypnosis work in the same area of the brain where habits reside. The subconscious is the domain of hypnosis and the domain of habit in the brain and the body.This is why hypnosis works to stop smoking the easiest way.
After you quit smoking, the good news is that within ten to fifteen years your chance of chronic illness from smoking reverts back to as if you never smoked.
You can shorten that time period considerably by becoming proactive in your recovery.
This is more noticeable in the first few days after you quit. Within two to three days your risk of heart attack or stroke drops tremendously. Your blood pressure drops, your breath smells better, your skin smells better, numerous other positive benefits happen within a very short period of time. And of course, within two to three days all the nicotine leaves your system.
So the next question becomes: "how do you become proactive in your recovery?" It is good to quit smoking but in my view it is only going half way. The other half is becoming active in detoxifying and helping your cardiovascular and respiratory system recover. How you do this is by very deliberately detoxing after you quit: drink lots of water, get lots of exercise, sweat, do a liver cleanse, do a cellular cleanse. Lose weight because toxins are stored in the fatty tissue of your body. Replenish your body nutritionally with a whole host of minerals and vitamins. Get on a good, solid, super nutritional diet. Eat the right foods and this will help shorten that recovery time considerably.
Shoot for, let's say, five to seven years for a full recovery, depending on how long you smoked and how much you smoked. The best way is to begin nowEUR¦ and you can do it!
