Modern and Creative Stop Smoking Tips and Advice

Expert Author Sergey V Pavlov

If you're one of the people who've already tried the different stop smoking tips posted all over the internet, but none of these seemed to work, desperation is definitely one of those feelings that you're having right now. If you'd notice, most of the tips listed on the internet are for people who've never tried quitting before. All over again, you'll see different writers giving the "basic" advice and tips that you can see basically everywhere.

But the sad part about this is, most smokers are already aware on what these methods are. Probably, a huge percentage has tried doing several stop smoking tips but for some reasons, these didn't work for them. For example the most common quit smoking advice is to use nicotine patches and gums, however they supply your body with the content that makes smoking even more addictive. This is one of the reasons why nicotine gums and patches never work - instead of keeping you away from the addictive content; these products just supply your body with this stuff.

But today, there are more creative ways on how you can quit smoking, and listed below are some:

  • Take advantage of technology. Instead of keeping your goals to yourself, it is best that you create and write a blog to keep track of your daily progress; this also avoids the issue of being shamed in public. If other people know what you're doing, then you would be pressured to maintain and achieve your goals. If possible, write everything that you've been going through and the difficulties that you're having in your blog. E-mail your family and friends and ask them to have your blog page bookmarked, and let them eventually visit it from time to time. Ask them to leave their comments. This is one of the best ways to gain their moral and emotional support that you need. Preferably, write at least three to four times per day - you can always talk about your cravings, and even the different things that you have encountered, as well as the things that you did to deal with it. This way, you'll be afraid of experiencing "public shame" and you have different people at your back, as they observe you every day as you take the challenge of quitting smoking.

  • Another brandAmong the different stop smoking tips available, you might think that this is a crazy idea, but it would help if you smoke a different cigarette brand. These things may result to negative effects as well, but you might just lose your cravings if you smoke a different brand which has a taste that you don't like.

  • Hypnotherapy. Some people think that hypnosis is only for people who want to lose weight, or for those people who have fears that they need to overcome. This is something that is not mentioned in different stop smoking tips - but, hypnosis is effective and surprisingly, people who've tried this method had reported the positive effects that hypnotherapy brought them.

  • Homeopathy. In all the stop smoking cases it is better to use the natural remedies to relief a wider variety of symptoms (like insomnia, weight gain, cough) and nicotine craving. One of the easiest way is to have sublingual spray.

You don't have to always go for the traditional stop smoking tips that are widely spread everywhere. There are better alternatives, although some people think that these alternatives are a bit odd, these are proven to be more effective than the traditional tips found online.
