date on the progress your body is making. When tempted to give in, the email will give you reasons to stay strong.
Hypnotherapy
Although smokers are physically addicted to nicotine, they also make psychological associations. Subconsciously the smoker depends on smoking as a habit.
Hypnotherapy tries to alter this.
Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT)
NRT eases the withdrawal symptoms and has clinically proven to be twice as effective as going cold turkey. This way smokers get the chance to get used to not smoking and the dose is gradually reduced. Again there are many forms and it’s a matter of choosing the right one for you. You can go with
nicotine patches which are discrete and easy to use or
gum which allows you to control your nicotine dose. The strongest form of NRT is
nasal spray. This is a small bottle of nicotine solution which is sprayed directly into the nose. Other forms of NRT are the microtab, Lozenge and the inhalator.
Conclusion
Cold turkey is the method that is used by the largest amount of people. Although efficient, NRT has proven itself twice as effective. Other methods such as
acupuncture and hypnotherapy haven’t proven their effectiveness. Remember that the method that works for someone else isn’t necessarily the one for you. Make your own choice. It might take some perseverance but try sticking to it.
