What are some of the key lessons, Makoto?

You mean to say this book makes a psychologically impact on mind to stop smoking..?

I am not a Representative of the book. I am not even going to apologize for the book. For the amount of money you spend on cigarettes, the book is a steal at regular price. But again, you might be able to get it second hand on amazon or some place. For the amount of money you will spend on patches, gums, crazy drugs that will make you sick to your stomach, and what not, the book is the first and best way you should go.

If it does not work for you, then there are other methods. Are you ready to quit, is what you should be asking yourself. Not if I am crazy or if the book is about mind control or some stupid thing like that.

The book explains what smoking really is. It gives you the truth about things. To better explain it, what you think you know about nicotine addiction, you do not. Just read the book what do you have to lose??? If you are already quit, or have stopped smoking, what does it matter. One more way for people to get clear of the nicotine addiction is not a bad thing people.

In the end, read the book or not. I do not care. But, if you ever do read the book, then you will feel exactly like I do. If you do not believe me, just go on facebook, punch in "allen carr" or "easy way" and see what comes up. Go from there.

If your really want to be free from cigarettes do not get fooled into thinking it is a hard and painful fight. How would anyone want to quit smoking if they knew they would have to suffer long and hard to give up something they think gives them pleasure. Think of it in reverse. Just think that cigarettes are not pleasurable, and it only takes a very short time to give them up . Lastly, it is easy to do.

Does a cigarette taste good??? Like candy? Coffee? Like a good steak?? Like a nice orange?? If you have too much candy,coffee,steak,oranges,does your tounge feel like a rat crawled in your mouth and died the next morning?? Again, does a cigarette taste good.

Read the book. You will be better off in many many ways. You can get in on the internet in many forms. But it only costs $10 so there is not excuse in not getting the book. But again if you can get it second hand, or for free. I do not care. Just get the book before you try any other method. If it does not work, fine. For you tinfoil cap people it will not make you sell your car and home and join a cult.

Fair enough. Thanks for the reference!

Still no replies from anyone who has read the book???

I did begin to read the book... but managed only several dozens of pages, unfortunatelly. Actually now I am trying to stop smoking, though have been doing it for 8 years already... I just need to stop due to some health problems.
As for the book, my frinds who read it really stopped smoking.. The main concept of the book is something like "smoke! while you read, smoke!". In some way it seems to be helpfull, will try

My advice to you is read the book, and do it quickly. Follow the rules. If that does not work, then try Chantix or whatever you want.

Your book is the best bet. Good luck to you in what ever you choose. The sooner the better. There will never be a perfect time to quit, until it is too late. Do it before it ever becomes too late. Ask yourself, what do you have to lose? And then ask yourself what do you have to gain? BTW, cigarettes do not taste good. Next time you have one, really ask yourself, do they taste good?? If they taste good, why did you get sick the first time you had a cigarette? Why not smoke 2 or 3 at one time if they taste that good.

Again good luck. Just change your mindset a bit and you can kick those things easy enough.

Hi,

I just read the Easyway to Stop Smoking. I think it is genius. There is one part I do not agree with. The bit about the physical withdrawals being insignificant. When I tried to quit cold turkey several years ago I became very ill for several days. Coughing, headache, nausea, sore throat, flu like symptoms so I do NOT believe the physical withdrawal is nothing. I was wearing the patch when I read it and still am. I started the patch because I had to have my wisdom teeth out and couldn't smoke as they were healing. Being on the patch wasn't so bad and I didn't find myself in agony even though I was not smoking. I did some google searches online about quitting smoking and noticed this book mentioned many times.

After reading this book I am not worried about the psychological effects of not smoking. But I am NOT sold on the idea that the physical withdrawal symptoms ar hardly noticeable. NOT my experience.

Those are my thoughts on the book.

Thanks for your reply.

For me the physical withdrawal was not much at all. Actually nothing, but we are all made differently. But just the same, to go through flu like symptoms to feel how great I do not that I do not smoke would be worth it.

Especially if you consider that cancer and the pain that causes is far worse than flu like symptoms.

BTW, you know the patch is breaking one of the rules of the book. But, good luck. Remember to read the book or parts of the book from time to time for a while.

If it all falls apart, pick up the book again in 6 months time, after thinking about where you went wrong, and try again. To be honest, it took me two real attempts at reading the book. The first one appeared to work on the surface, but actually my thinking was wrong.

The second time I read the book I knew where I went wrong, and I was able to be successful this time around.

Just remember no matter what you do, do not put another one of those dirty, freedom destroying, worrisome, cancer causing, expensive, smelly, disgusting things in your mouth again. There is nothing to be gained by smoking. Absolutely nothing, there are no benefits at all. So, just tell yourself, not another cigarette in your mouth ever again. No nicotene in your body ever again. You keep that in mind, and you will be safe forever.

Good luck.

i don't agree with the book that physical withdrawal is nothing i just don't. and rereading it is not going to change that.

but after reading the book i actually do want to quit smoking. i haven't felt that way for 7 years. and for me that's the most important thing.

i don't think that not following one of the "instructions" is going to make me fail.

no one can make me fail but me.

No matter what, I hope you are able to make the break. Good luck.
