There is something called the stop smoking shot, but some of the best techniques are the oldest.

Drink more water, detoxify, try to find something to replace your smoking habit with. Suck on cinnamon sticks instead of smoking cigarettes, get creative with this. Chew sugar-free gum or nicotine gum. Keep your mouth busy, smoking seems to be based in part on some kind of oral fixation. Eat healthy food, and avoid alcohol if alcohol causes nicotine cravings. The same goes for coffee, temporarily anyway.

Try avoiding plant foods from the nightshade family. These are all close relatives of tobacco and may interfere with detox. Tomatoes, eggplants, potatoes, and bell peppers are all nightshades which contain traces of nicotine in them naturally. Avoiding them may help control cravings since even a tiny amount of nicotine may set off cravings for more nicotine.

If you are under a lot of stress, try to find healthier ways of controlling or eliminating the stress from your life. Smoking and stress are often very interrelated. Try yoga or meditation, or breathing exercises.

Try the herb plantago(plantain) - it seems to help cause smoking aversion in many people. Do not confuse them with the banana like plantains, they have no relation to them. Plantago can grow almost anywhere, even in parks or on the street near you but be careful if you want to harvest, since there is the risk of germs or chemical contamination due to lead or other toxins. Of course it is possible to buy it too. Many smokers claim plantains caused them to hate smoking and helped them quit for good.

Write down all the reasons you want to quit smoking, and then write all the reasons you want to continue smoking. Compare the lists. Keep a journal and pay attention to what causes you to smoke more and what helps you smoke less. Stay focused on your goal.

Try aversion therapy. Look at images of the diseased, blackened lungs of smokers, look at photos of people dying from lung cancer in hospitals. Take note of how smokers live shorter lives than non-smokers, are less attractive to others, and have higher rates of cancer, heart disease and respiratory diseases.

I hope you quit and I hope this helps!

The stop smoking laser is just a good a tool as any  to help you kick the habit.  Why should you?

Its not just the nicotine you have to worry about. Its also the other 50+ chemicals they out in cigarettes.

We have been used to having body sensations which we translate as ‘my body needs something, which we have attempted to satisfy by having a cigarette.

When we try to stop smoking, we still get these ‘my body needs something’ sensations, and we still feel that we want a cigarette. We have to train our body to be more selective. When we feel we need something, we have to work out what it is that we actually need.

A glass of water is an excellent substitute if nothing else comes to mind, as it helps with the clearance of the toxic substances in our body. Another good substitute is a bag of salted peanuts, used in combination with the water.

Another thing to do is to find an activity which occupies the mind or body. Go swimming - nobody wants to smoke while they are swimming. Slowly, as our body adjusts and translates the ‘want something’ feelings into something other than cigarettes, then the feelings begin to go away. We know its not a cigarette that the body really needs, because as soon as we’ve had one we still have the feeling, and want another!

A common concern when one is trying to stop smoking cigarettes is weight gain.  Most people are aware that cigarettes are an appetite suppressant.  There is also some research indicating that they speed up the metabolic process a bit, so perhaps these fears have a bit of a foundation.

However, when you consider how much more active you’ll be after quitting, you’ll probably naturally be able to burn the extra calories.  Also, with the extra money you’ll have when not purchasing expensive cigarettes, you can indulge in a healthy diet to help you keep from consuming the extra calories in fast food and other inexpensive fatty selections.
