You can be as positive as you like in your goal to stop smoking for good. But a positive can-do attitude alone will not give you the success that you seek. And we all know people who were totally determined to stop smoking and soon fell off the wagon again. So you may well ask what else it takes to quit.
Stopping smoking is not as simple as deciding to change your habits. Nicotine is one of the most addictive substances known to mankind. Some would say that it is more addictive than heroin. There are very good reasons for this. Nicotine is a drug that you can take and still function. As a matter of fact, until you figure out a good strategy of quitting, you can probably function even better on cigarettes. Whilst smoking, you can more easily concentrate on your work or study, you can be calm when you need calming and stimulated when you need stimulating, you can control your eating, you can relax and be sociable on social occasions, you can enjoy an alcoholic drink and remain in control, you can sleep more easily and awaken more cheerfully; no wonder so many people smoke! Smoking works, that is why you do it. However, now you have reached the stage where smoking is no longer a solution for you. Smoking has now become a problem.
So how do you prepare to stop smoking? With an open mind and a willing heart. Let me illustrate. An open mind does not mean saying that you want to quit smoking. An open mind involves acceptance that there are emotional reasons why a smoker smokes. A willing heart means the willingness to let go of these negative emotions that are holding you back.
There is a new technique called EFT which has the power to completely free you from these negative emotions. Once these are totally released from your system, you will have no desire to smoke whatsoever. But this presents some smokers with a challenge. When doing EFT, we sometimes, and only fleetingly, briefly feel an emotion as it finds its way out of our body. We may temporarily get tears or sadness, for example. And smoking is an addiction. And an addiction is a way of avoiding feeling uncomfortable emotions. So the first thing you need to prepare for is facing up to some discomfort. If you do choose to use EFT for quitting, this discomfort is very minimal.
As you may already know, if you want to accomplish something, you need to think it first. Our thoughts become our reality. So to prepare for quitting smoking, you need to stop thinking like an addict and start thinking like a non-addict. When you start thinking like a non-addict, you will start behaving like a non-addict and naturally become a non-addict. A non-addict will admit to negative emotions and find a way to get rid of them. Choose to be ready to let go. That is all the preparation you need. Really want it from the bottom of your heart. You can be pleasantly surprised how good you can feel as a true non-smoker.
More more people are becoming free from addiction each day with EFT. You can learn EFT free online and do the tapping yourself. You can purchase a script, subscription or book for more specific guidance. Or you can engage the services of an experienced practitioner.
So now you know how you can quit and how to prepare for quitting. The next step is to choose which EFT option is best for you. Enjoy becoming a non-smoker!
