Finding FREEDOM for LIFE!

If you want to change your life you must change your mind. The only way to change your mind is to reprogram it by blasting your brain with statements that will produce your desired behaviour.

The difference that a statement can make in the life of a man, woman, or child is nothing short of phenomenal.

 

Change your mind - change your life!

It only takes three days to overcome the physical part of tobacco addiction. The rest is in your head. Make no mistake the mental part of kicking any addiction including tobacco is not easy. Remember it takes time... It took time for you to become mentally dependant on tobacco, it will take time to become independent. You should know this -- affirmations are NOT the same as willpower.

Addiction to tobacco begins by choosing to use, recovery begins the same way -- choose to quit. Addicts must take responsibility for their recovery. Own it. Having a self-inflicted tobacco addiction does not absolve you of your behaviour.

 

The physical part of addiction recovery is not very important.What is important is dealing with the compulsion, the craving, that happens even when you know you're going to destroy yourself.

Can affirmations help? Yes, they can. Science is proving that when you change your mind, your brain physically changes too. The effects of long term tobacco abuse can be overcome.

To quit smoking is possible. It might not seem like it when you're craving, when you're at the bottom of the barrel, when you're at the end of your rope. Don't wait till your doctor announces the 'C' word to you. Start your quit smoking program. Do it now, do it today!

Nothing is forcing you to smoke. Your genes, your personality, your awful past, your family -- nothing. Abusing tobacco is voluntary, purposeful behavior.The only cause of your addiction -- both physical and mental is the thoughts that you habitually think that tell you in a thousand different ways 'Have a smoke'.

 

The need to smoke exists totally in your mind -- it is the result of your thoughts and nothing else. To quit smoking you absolutely must change your thoughts.

The fastest and most effective smoking cessation method to change your thoughts is by using affirmations. The result will be cessation from smoking without the need for pills, patches, or any other gimmick. Do you want relief from tobacco? Do you want your life back again? Include affirmations in your smoking cessation routine. Have you heard that saying, "Don't feed the Monster?" Well, I have a saying, too! Feed your FREEDOM LOVING Voice!
