This may sound like a miracle at first, but Pauline put in the work!

Thanks for watching! Comment below and let Pauline and I know what you took away from her journey that can help you quit smoking too.
Pauline is adorable, and a strong willed women! I agree that the biggest issue that drove me kooky was the mind games of smoking, constantly thinking " I want a cigarette, do I have enough cigarettes? Always being seen sitting outside by my neighbors smoking( hated that), the smell of the smoke on my clothes..it went on and on, drove me nuts..my mind is finally quite again😌 lol..until I heard you Nasia say to change the thought in my head to " I want air" instead of " I want a cigarette " , as a person who likes getting into fitness by biking, running, working out and hearing my breathing progressively getting labored ..I said that's it! I just want to breathe air, fresh air!! Now I think I inspired my close friend to quit too..I love my new me, thanks for all your help,im so glad I found you and your method😁
I'm also glad you found the CBQ method! Thank you for sharing your experience and what "clicked" for you 🙏🎉
Fantastic job Pauline! Thank you for inspiring us!
Thank you so much. At 85 I could relate to all that she shared and it helped my mind set.
Thanks Pauline...lots of tips and very inspiring to us all.
Nasia thank you for doing these videos. I found Paulines story very helpful and inspiring. ❤ I'm still working on the cbq program and I believe it's the best program anywhere!
🙏👏So happy to know you're enjoying the program and Pauline's story resonated. She's really amazing and so sweet ❤️
Thank you Nasia and Pauline - you are right the homework immediately started changing my mindset. Having to journal each cigarette is so important. It's what led to my first AHA moment.
Thank you both for sharing. Im in the program now. Doing the homework IS the key. Im unfortunately haveing trouble with that part with kids and work. I have to dedicate a certain time of day to do it. I love the course and Im always so happy to see people succeed.
Hi Rich, you can do this! Feel free to reach out to our support team at support@cbqmethod.com if you need help along the way. :)
Thanks. I think I will try crocheting and deep breaths
Great Mari! Let us know how it goes 👏
Been a month now im down to 2 cig a day. 5 hits at morning, 4 hits at 2 oclock and 5 hits at 9pm. If i can do this thru Christ who strengthens me, so can you! Its not that hard lol.

How much money it cost in indian rupees to buy a program
Hi Manish, please email our team at support@cbqmethod.com so they can help you :)
It’s priceless my friend!
Amazing lady
Can you please tell how can I stop for smoking for day or two at beggining, I want to stop very badly but after 3-5 hours I couldn't stop smoking.
Hello, the key is overcoming the mental addiction. Pauline is sharing many gems in this video that help you with that!
If you think about it, you don't smoke for 7-8 hours at night while you sleep. Why is it that when you're awake, you can stay away from smoking for only 3-5 hours? It's because your mind is awake. It's because of the mental addiction. Once you overcome the mental addiction, which is what the CBQ Method is designed to do, you will be able to stay smoke-free without using willpower, struggling, and counting the hours.
@@CBQMethod Thanks for response 🙏
@@politicalflashback.880 I tried for a week, everyday I'd smoke after 3-4 hours like you said, then I realized the reason, it was because there was nothing special about the quit day. so I made it special by saying to myself that I'll never turn of the logic switch again, never and I slept and started the day after and now I'm on day 10 and it's not bad as I thought it would be
What About Quitting Chewing Tobacco? Much Harder and been Trying to for the last 22 Years.
Hi, thanks for your comment. The CBQ method can help you quit chewing tobacco because quitting chewing tobacco follows the same principles as quitting cigarettes. Everything Nasia shares about tobacco applies to chewing tobacco too. The CBQ method works for smokers, vapers, and those who wish to stop using nicotine substitutes. 🙂
This video below will show you why your past quit attempts didn't last and what to do differently this time so you can succeed: ua-cam.com/video/z65h-yFQ-HA/v-deo.html
