1-2-free Stop Smoking system now totally free!

That's right, nothing to pay, no obligation, no detail capture, just freedom from the habit you may have grown to hate.  After years of trial and error it seems that people who want to quit and are willing to pay for this huge wish, are usually more successful after they do. However I have come to the decision that the information  that so many smokers who are desperate to quit require is becoming addled by the amount of gimmicks and pharmaceutical clap trap on the web.  So at the risk of slightly reducing the effectiveness of the system, as opposed to a paid for process,  you may have it absolutely free. All you need to do is leave me a contact email address. (I suggest you open a separate email account in Hotmail or similar, specifically for this purpose to avoid spam later on. You can then just delete the account once you have the system ). I will then give you details of the sky drive where it is available. 

Check out some of my bloggs to give yourself a bit of a head start. you have nothing to lose , only the Fags! 

P.S If the cogs move in the brain test diagram, you have the type of brain that can give up habits  ridiculously  easy using 1-2-free.

P.P.s All 1-2-free links on this blogg are now broken so the system is only available via our skydrive. 

Its all here still.

This blog is now primarily being used for research into smoking cessation by individuals and organisations. I rarely add further info unless something ground breaking comes up, as of yet all you need to quit is here, so go for it and have a party!

Most of the information on this blog has been tested 'in the field' so to speak, by myself and other smoking cessation specialists on real clients so I can therefore verify its usefulness.

There is a free NLP technique in the 'Habit buster' blogg and also links in the blog prior to this to a full free hypnosis /NLP smoking cessation system which is available to download from a skydrive site.

If you really want to quit without chemicals, please don't hesitate. It really is free, as you will be!

much love,

Nigel Bird.

Quit for Free on me.

It's 2010 and this is the first time I've been back here for a while. As the purpose of this blog is to help people become non smokers , I have to put out a few more snippets of information that will help them achieve this goal. Firstly however I need to reiterate that if you really want to become a non smoker then all the information you need can be found on these blogs. I have not been able to supply a downloadable stop smoking session on these pages, but I'm working on that now. The the best way for you to receive this download at present is to contact me via email at nigelbird5@hotmail.co.uk I will then send you a link to my skydrive at microsoft where I will authorise you to download the MP3. I will also send you my E book as an pdf . Then all you really need to do is read the book then listen to the cd. You'll be jumping for joy at being a non smoker. That's it... simple. Why am I giving this stuff away? Well, I just want to, there's no hitch, it really is free, so what have you got to lose, except that old Habit !

Look forward....

Still here if needed

Have been away for some time and neglecting the blogg. However Through all my experience of dealing with smokers and helping them to quit I am pretty sure that the information you need to quit can be found amoung the various postings on this blogg. There has to my knowledge been no more discoveries in the last year aimed at helping a person to quit. Therefor for me to continue adding more posts will only serve to fill the blogg with more stories about quitting and make finding the information you need more lengthy.

Essentially you need to check out the nicotine addiction sections then devise a way to deal with your habits craving manifestations. Its all here if you care enough to look for it and seriously want to quit. I will always be available to comment however should you need any help. If you care enough to search you'll always find light at the end of the path even if it seems a bit cold on the way!

Happy new year!

How long did the resolutions last?

Happy new year and I hope this year brings all you hope it will.

By now a large proportion of smokers who made that new years resolution to quit will be back on the evil weed. It's the same every year. There is however a big glimmer of hope for those who failed but really want to quit. You see quitting is only as hard as you make it yourself. There is a big percentage, around 45% who find quitting very easy and never go back to cigarettes ever again. Smokers 'trying' to quit however rarely hear about these. And why should they, there is no money to be made out of them, but they are there all the same. You probably know someone in this category. The overwhelming consensus amongst the general public is that it's hard to quit. They even tell you that in all those hideous nicotine patch ads and NHS information broadcasts. Why is this the case? Well there is still money to be made out of the poor smoker even when he decides to quit, if he believes it is hard to do. i.e he'll need some kind of 'help'!

Just remember this, around 45% of smokers who quit, find it easy. If you really believe this and it is a fact, then you too will find it easy. A simple formulae in therapy states, expectation+belief=your experience. Don't be fooled by the drug companies or the nationalised health services they serve! Pick a time when you want to quit, find an alternative coping strategy to help with stress utilise some form of habit breaking technology (my habit buster on the left will do) and you can quit easily.

Resolution Madness

THE HARDEST TIME TO QUIT!

It’s that time of the year again when many smokers who want to give up smoking choose to do the deed and banish the evil weed. We ask, is this the best time to do it?
Statistically 50% of New Year’s resolutions have been broken by the end of the first week. There is some very sound reasoning why this is the case and particularly with smoking. According to government figures only around 7% of smokers who rely on willpower will succeed in quitting on the first attempt. New Year’s Day is perceived by many to be a time to make a fresh start or turn over a new leaf, but in actual fact it’s quite probably the hardest time to quit smoking.

By the last week in December the days are at their shortest and cases of Seasonally affected Disorder (SAD) are coming to a peak and the cold is starting to bite. Christmas is a welcome fillip to the gloom with celebrations and indulgence being the order of the day. However as the year draws to a close, the festivities are over the decorations come down and the unwelcome credit card statement drops on the door mat, merriment can in some turn into less uplifting mood states. Add that to the still long dark nights at the coldest time of the year, it’s a recipe for a dose misery or worse a bout of depression. This is the time of the year when any coping strategies (tobacco, alcohol etc) would be most needed by those who have adopted these behaviours. Hardly the best time to consider quitting! However as stopping smoking is almost certainly the single best thing a smoker can do for their health, stopping at any time is most certainly a positive step. I recommend that should you decide that this is the time when you’re going to quit smoking then you really need the best advice about the easiest way to go about it. One thing is for sure if you rely on willpower alone then unless you now how to use it effectively, statistically there is around a 93% failure rate. In my book and CD I show you how to use your willpower effectively which alone can increase your willpower up to five times. This even without any other intervention would give you a statistical chance of success of around 35%, nearly double the success rate of the NHS stop smoking service!
You need not only get the best advice about how to use your willpower but also new coping strategies which can be installed using effective hypnotic intervention and NLP.( the change technique that is used by mind game TV personalities. These techniques are highly effective and work) All this gives you a far higher chance of success.

To get a copy of my Book and CD, leave your details in my secure comments section and I'll attach them in an email to you. Your details will not be on view as my comments section is regulated . If you really want to quit smoking now, do yourself a favour and make it easy on yourself, use an effective method!

Have a very happy new year....

Nigel.

You are being conned by cigerette producers

Are you addicted to nicotine?

Most smokers believe that they are and if you are one of these then let me ask you another question. If you were not addicted to nicotine would it be easy for you to stop? The belief that nicotine is a very addictive chemical is a common one and fuelled partly by the government and partly by the tobacco manufacturers. I believe they want you to think this. I totally disagree with this notion! Before you say ‘well I am addicted and you can say what you like’ just listen to my reasoning. In America a few years ago a Large Law firm commissioned a study to find out whether nicotine was an addictive chemical. They were taking a large cigarette producer to court on behalf of clients with tobacco related diseases They commissioned the leading experts in the field of chemical addictions and these experts produced a 600-page report. None of them said categorically that nicotine was an addictive chemical! Kind of interesting eh? As a therapist I look at people from a behavioural point of view, so if I want to find out if something is addictive I compare it with a proven addiction. So let’s take heroin, (generally accepted as a strongly addictive chemical) as an example. An average Heroine Addict suffers terrible physical withdrawal symptoms, (sweats, shakes, heart palpitations, vomiting, nausea, hallucinations and more). Now when was the last time you stopped smoking and suffered such horrible physical symptoms? You might get grumpy and lose your temper more easily you might even over eat but you don’t get such horrible symptoms. Also your average heroine addict cannot make it through the night without their body waking them up for more heroine. The only heroine addicts that get full nights sleep are also alcoholics (because the Alcohol numbs their brain). The only trouble being that when they get up in the morning they have to take all of the Heroine that they would have taken during the night just to get out of bed! Now When was the last time that you had to smoke all the cigarettes that you would have smoked if you were awake all night? It never happens. You might wake up and smoke one or two but you don’t have to smoke all those that you would have smoked if you were awake. So why do you only want a cigarette when you’re awake? Because if you were an addict that means your body requires the chemical, so why does it only want it when you’re awake?

Now here’s the low-down, the proof that what I’m saying is true. Have you ever tried to stop using Nicotine replacement therapy or NRT? (Patches Gums lozenges) These all contain huge amounts of Nicotine. The average regular strength cigarette contains around 1 milligram of Nicotine, (low tar and ultra lights even less), you can check if you like by looking at the box. Nicotine replacement treatments vary in the quantity of nicotine they supply your body with and contain up to114 milligrams! Now That is a massive dose, that's more nicotine than 2o boxes cigarettes! And you use the same amount every day. For at least six weeks! That’s 210 boxes of twenty. Now if nicotine was such an addictive chemical why don’t you get addicted to patches, I've never seen a private patient asking for help getting off patches. Call me cynical but where do you think the patch manufacturers get their nicotine? Do you think it could be the tobacco manufacturers?

Now One of the ‘traditional’ ways the experts get a heroine addict off the heroine is to give them a replacement drug called methadone (very similar to heroine in nature). This is more safely available at special clinics set up for the purpose. The idea being to gradually wean the addict off this replacement. These same experts are saying ‘one of the ways were going to get you off the cigarettes is to give you a patch that contains more nicotine than you’ve ever had in your entire life’! That’s like saying to a heroine addict ‘have some more heroine’. That really is crazy. And why are there no clinics to wean you of the patches? And what’s even crazier is that the government has been funding nicotine replacement therapy with millions of pounds every year! Now here’s the thing, according to the governments own statistics, if you’re trying to give up smoking using willpower alone then around 6% of those trying will succeed. Of the people trying to stop using the nicotine gums then around 10% of those trying will succeed. Of the people trying to stop using nicotine patches then around 16% of those trying will succeed. What that really means is that at least 84% of people trying to stop smoking using Nicotine replacement DON’T SUCCEED! Which means it doesn’t work! Because it’s not a nicotine addiction! The people who managed to stop using NRT (16%) only did so because they were convinced that it works, it became a self fulfilling prophecy, commonly known as the placebo effect. This is an effect caused by the belief that something is going to work irrespective of the actual content. So basically if you really think something will work then it will !
