Secrets
and Solutions for Quitting Smoking
There
is a secret to quitting smoking.
Almost all smokers have
tried many times to quit,
and usually they are not surprised to find that it takes more than
conscious desire and willpower to quit once and for all. And most
smokers know that patches and gum are not the solution to quitting
smoking.
Don't fight fire with gasoline!
You don't fight fire with gasoline, and you don't quit smoking with
nicotine. Patches, gum and other "nicotine replacement" products have
failure rates of 80 - 90 percent. That's why the manufacturers
of these products must state that
a behavior modification
program is essential for successfully quitting smoking.
The truth about drugs
It seems that the drug companies are always promising some new "miracle" drug that
will be the "silver bullet" that cures
smoking. What they don't tell you is that most drugs work no
better than a placebo, and some drug therapies have side effects that
are so harmful they have to be discontinued.
Forget Hypnosis
Hypnosis for quitting smoking has the
same rate of failure as
patches or gum - 80 to 90 percent. The reason hypnosis fails so
often is that hypnosis tends to encourage an
attitude of passivity in which the hypnotist is supposed to magically
cure you of your desire to smoke. That just isn't realistic.
The Real Power
To quit smoking for good you need something
stronger than
hypnosis, something more powerful than drugs. The secret
to quitting smoking permanently is that you already have the
power!
Step-by-step
In order to quit smoking permanently you must change the
unconscious patterns that control your smoking behavior. You
need a step-by-step system that gives you
the power to change, the
power to overcome the subconscious programming that has kept you
chained to the cigarette habit.
Creating mental maps
The Quitting In Time system gives you four essential techniques
for changing unconscious patterns: symbols, affirmations,
visualization and repetition. By using these four "tools" you
gain access to the powerful resources of the subconscious mind by
creating mental maps from where you are to where you want to go. (see L.A. Weekly review)
The Quitting In Time audio CD provides a fifth tool, Dichotic Listening.

Dichotic Listening
Dichotic listening is a process in which two
different audio messages are presented, one for each ear. Using
headphones these two messages are played simultaneously.
Not hypnosis, not subliminal
Since the conscious mind cannot focus on two different messages at
the same time, it has to suspend its ability to filter incoming
information. The messages are then able to
bypass conscious
resistance and enter directly into the unconscious.
This process
is not hypnosis and not subliminal.
Positive Messages
The messages that are used are in the form of positive affirmations
taken from the book Quitting In Time. Some examples are:
"Quitting smoking is easier than I thought", "I am stronger every time
I say no to cigarettes", "it's never too late to quit smoking".
The conscious mind tends to be critical of these messages and inhibits
them from being accepted and acted upon by the subconscious.
With dichotic listening this conscious resistance is bypassed and
the
resources of the subconscious are available for change.
That's what behavior modification is all about.
Touchdown!
Imagine a football team with only one defender (conscious mind)
that is playing a team with two receivers. The defender cannot cover
two receivers at the same time. He is confused. He doesn't know
what to do. The receiver scores. Touchdown!
Technically Speaking
In technical terms this technique is described as "overloading
cognitive processes to depotentiate conscious mind-sets and facilitate
new learning." In other words, the message goes into the
unconscious mind instead of going
"in-one-ear-and-out-the-other."
This is precisely why other "self-improvement" products are not
effective, they go "in-one-ear-and-out-the-other" and are soon
forgotten. The Quitting In Time audio program is unique because
it is the only smoking cessation program that uses dichotic
listening.
The time is now
There has never been a better time to quit smoking than right now.
The Quitting In Time system uses proven methods, is easy to
understand and use and costs less than a carton of cigarettes.
By placing your order today you are taking
the important first step to
creating a new life free from the curse of cigarette addiction.
