Everyone knows that smoking is not a healthful lifestyle choice. Yet many of us continue to pursue this expensive and potentially fatal habit every day. Why is it that it is so difficult to quit smoking? Nicotine addiction is the most commonly used explanation for why so many of us are unable to give up the habit and quit smoking once and for all. While there is some truth to this, there is much more going on behind the scenes. It actually should not be difficult to quit smoking at all. Some health practitioners have developed a revolutionary new method that has the potential to help millions of smokers quit smoking once and for all.



Many smokers who have tried and failed repeatedly to quit smoking are finding that there are no shortage of chemicals and treatment programs that promise to assisting the smoker quit smoking. Many of these treatments serve as nicotine supplements to help the body wean itself off of that addictive substance. Examples of these nicotine replacement therapies include nicotine gum, nicotine patches, and nicotine inhalers. Since nicotine is in itself a harmful substance, some wonder whether the treatments are as bad as the disease. Additionally, nicotine replacement therapy is quite expensive (often more expensive than smoking) and the success rate of such therapy is under dispute. Many smokers, after failing to quit when using nicotine replacement therapy, decide that there is no other option, that they are simply too weak to ever quit smoking successfully.

What many of us do not realize is that nicotine addiction, while very real, is not the main reason why so many people find it difficult to quit smoking. The truth is much deeper than that. First, there are chemicals in cigarette smoke that are actually more addictive than nicotine and are the real reason why so many people have trouble when trying to quit smoking. Other reasons that it is difficult for many to quit smoking have to do with the fact that we have heard so often how hard quitting is that we have come to believe it. When we try to quit smoking, we often start out with a mindset that we are ultimately going to fail. This becomes a self fulfilling prophecy.

Natural health practitioner Rick Saruna has developed an advanced method that has helped many people quit smoking even if they had tried to quit and failed many times. It addresses the real reasons why we smoke, the mental attitudes that we have developed about smoking, and shows the smoker how to reprogram his or her thinking and make life style changes that make it a snap to quit smoking. If you think about it, our body does not want us to smoke. There is nothing wholesome about the habit. The mind has tricked the body into craving the cigarette. By reprogramming the mind, it is possible to halt craving completely without suffering withdrawals and without spending hundreds of dollars on pharmaceutical quit smoking remedies.
