Why Smoking doesn't cure the craving for smoking

Are you ready to Quit Smoking Melbourne?

Have you noticed that cravings just come and go?

It's like not eating for 2 days. You notice that you get hungry around meal times, but then the hunger goes away, even though you're not eating for 2 days.

Why does the hunger go away?

It's because hunger isn't caused by not eating, it's caused by eating habitually around the same time every day.

The same is true of smoking. If you feel a craving, then it'll go away in a few minutes. It doesn't matter if you smoke or not, the craving will go away. but if you smoke, then the craving will come back again tomorrow and the next day.

Why our attitude towards Vaping makes it more dangerous than cigarettes.

Because it's early days in research, very few research publications have come out about the dangers of vaping. Is it time for you to Quit Smoking Melbourne?

This means that people still think that vaping is safe.

We're only just now getting signs up that say "no vaping" inside, as vapers haven't caught up with public expectations yet.

When a person walks outside along a strip of shops, they have the right not to have smoke blown in their face. Often smokers would rudely blow a smoke cloud around unsuspecting pedestrians.

Unfortunately, some vapers are yet to understand or respect the lungs of other pedestrians, and some still blow vaping clouds into people's breathing space.

Is it time to let it go?

Why is Smoking Addictive?

If you wan to Quit Smoking Melbourne, first it's important to know what causes smoking to be so addictive.

Smoking is unlike any other poison / drug as it has no positive effects in the short term.

While the ritual of having a break and breathing can be beneficial, even without smoking...

The poisons from the cigarette do nothing to help people in the short term, and also nothing positive in the long term.

A drug is usually used to achieve an emotional outcome, from cocaine, marijuana, coffee or alcohol.

Each of these drugs can create an effect that people often see as desirable.

However, the poisons in cigarettes don't help people in any way.

It's all about the habit and the emotional needs being met through the ritual of actually doing the break, doing the breathing and taking the time to re-energise.

Do you want to Quit Smoking Melbourne?

It's easier than you think.

Are you breaking up your day, your routine?

Is vaping healthy? Better or Worse than smoking?

People seem to vape inside, outside and everywhere.

We're in a point in history where, not only do people think that vaping is not unhealthy,

but they think that vaping inside is still acceptable.

When clients who want to Quit Smoking Melbourne ask me about Vaping, I tell them this.

The habit of vaping is the same habit of smoking. This means that they haven't cured their habit at all, and it's just as easy to go from smoking to vaping as it is to go from vaping to smoking.

Another answer I like to give is, breathing that stuff in isn't going to add to their health.

We're only just now gaining data and studies about the long term harm of vaping.

If you want to Quit Smoking Melbourne for life, then you really don't want to swap one bad habit for another.

What harm an 1 smoke cause? Quit Smoking Hypnotherapy

If you've ever Quit Smoking Melbourne, and maybe a year later, maybe over seas or on a fishing trip wondered what harm 1 smoke can cause. Then you should know that people who smoke 1 will smoke 2 and then 3 cigarettes and keep going until they become a full time smoker again.

14 Years Smoke Free - Quit Smoking Melbourne

When I first started smoking, it was because I wanted to fit in with my friends.

I never thought that I would eventually smoke for 10 years. When I wanted to Quit Smoking Melbourne, I just told myself that I would quit soon.

1 cigarette would lead to another and 10 years past fairly quickly.
I would wake up coughing, longing to be healthier like my more athletic friends, but couldn't figure out how to Quit Smoking Melbourne.

Eventually after studying clinical hypnotherapy, I have now gone 14 years smoke free. I learned that the chemical addiction isn't a drug, it's a poison. And the emotional needs that smoking was helping me with wasn't actually helping.

How to Quit Smoking Melbourne Hypnotherapy

Have you heard myths about smoking?

A friend may tell you to use patches to Quit Smoking Melbourne to help you out with the physical cravings.
Well, think about it like you'd think about coffee. If you'd gone from 8 coffees per day down to 1 coffee per day, would you use a caffeine patch to make up the difference?

You don't need patches. You just need to give your body time to clear out the poisons.

Have you heard people say, "I've smoked for too long", it's too hard to Quit Smoking Melbourne now.

But if that were true, then it's like saying that you're too old to learn at all.

Imagine if you moved house and said, "I'm too old to learn new streets. When I go to the shops, I have to drive to my old house, and then to the shops because I'm too old to learn."
Does that sound a bit weird?

Of course it does.

Or maybe you've heard people say, "I enjoy it too much to quit", even though their doctor has told them to Quit Smoking Melbourne due to their lung condition?

How many things do you enjoy in life?

Maybe 10, 20 or 100?

What if you loved 10 activities and 9 of them are healthy?

But one of them is poison.

Can't you just focus on the 9 things that you love to do that aren't poison?

What are you trying to achieve anyway?
You're trying to achieve happiness right?

So just do healthy things that make you happy.

You can Quit Smoking Melbourne if you want to.
It just takes the decision to do so.
