@@qesther1241 I wrote down all the steps and created a theory of how life would be. Alot of notes. I'm gonna try it her way. It's very frustrating to want it and not be able to deliver. I dont understand myself because I've always gotten rid of things that offended me.
No passing of time not good enough. After 6 weeks and still getting bad days and I agree, i know that i have passed enough hurdles to go back. I will keep moving forward
I have been smoking cigars and hookah. It gets me out of the house, gives me my own time. I had a huge aha moment while reading about the barriers to quitting. I realized it fills an emotional need of not being lonely or bored, but when I reflected on that, it didn't add up. I think I've been lying to myself. I cannot wait to go to a hookah lounge or sit on my porch to light up... But once I do I feel like I am stuck there for the night and wasting it when I could be doing other things I care about or keep visualizing myself caring about. I love the idea of smoking, but I think I actually hate doing it. It takes away from my family time or time to explore my own passions. That is my aha moment to inspire me pushing for this to be a real quit. I'm gearing up and want to be proud of my self image because sitting in front of a hookah for 3, sometimes 6 hours, does not create any positive feelings in my life. I'm glad to be able to share this.
I'm like 30 days into the program. Still have cravings, but haven't given into them. I think I had a a-ha moment this AM. I was bending over putting my shoes on, and I noticed I wasn't short of breath like I used to be. Wow. The program is helping me. Thank you !!!!!!
I am trying to quit before I get ill. I am approaching 69 years old. I never smoked a lot but I smoked for a long time. I’m on countdown now to seven cigarettes a day, but I had aha moment as I took myself back to the first time I smoked a cigarette exactly how I felt, and then traveled all way back to where I am now. Imagined how many cigarettes I’ve smoked all that time .I continue watching her videos. She’s very smart and very effective.
I struggle with renewing my commitment to becoming a nonsmoker. An experience that has impacted me, however, is committing to not smoking in my house. After 3 weeks, the air was smoke free, and no ashes accumulated on the floor, which I had been slavishly bending over to clean up. That was very FREEING to my person. I also lost some of the guilt because my husband and others weren't inhaling my 2nd hand smoke. I need to build on this. The downside is that I end up chain-smoking outdoors, and therefore not allowing time to accomplish my indoor goals for my day.
Me too. It seemed like a panic button went off which caused me to chain smoke when i thought of altering or quitting it was tough. Im 43 days not smoking cigarettes. Alot of CHANGES!!!
I have been smoking (again) for the last three years. Before that, I hadn't smoked for 7-8 years. I have taken the first step tonight in quitting. I signed up for the webinar for the 4th. I can do this! I can do this! I WILL do this!!!❤❤
I'm not saying her technique doesn't work, I just didn't use it. I was forced to quit April 30th. I had been telling my husband that I was addicted and it was going to have to be a forced like kind of situation to make me quit. I've never had an addictive personality in all of my 38 years but I was really addicted this last time to cigarettes. I ended up in the ICU on April 30th and was in there for 9 days with a deep throat infection. I have been dealing with this since December 9th of last year and it just got worse about 2 weeks before I ended up in the ICU. It still hasn't resolved and I've been on my deathbed multiple times since. I'm a big girl I know I did it to myself but when people say how bad smoking is I always knew it but sometimes hearing it from individual people and their issues that they've dealt with because of it maybe/hopefully it can get through to somebody to quit before they end up in a life or death situation like I have.
Day 1 for me tomorrow. I hv tried to quit so many times using meds, hypnosis, patches and willpower that i've lost count. Im enjoying approaching it from a mindset angle.
My moment was remembering a feeling of accomplishment.. While preparing, by giving myself experiences of not smoking first thing thing in the morning, or not smoking after my typical triggers.. I remembered the experience of feeling accomplishment, how good it feels to complete something that was challenging. (something unrelated to smoking) When my quit date rolled around, whenever I find myself looking for cigarettes, I take myself back to that feeling of accomplishment. Compare that to the short term relief I will get from lighting up. It takes my focus straight to seeking that accomplishment rather than the short term relief and the anxiety literally floats away.. So far so good. My mind shift seems to be working. I am finding it easier than expected so far..
Thank you for that advice. I went two weeks them backsliding. I might try that. I've been writing down alot so thank you for the inspiration. I hope I can do this. I really want to know what's it's like to live smoke free. I've smoked since I was nine. Started with prince Albert in a can. Lol.i hope I can end this nasty habit soon. I hate bad smells
Thank you for this example...its really helpful. I'm wondering if you can give an example of that feeling of accomplishment from your life? What kinds of accomplishments do you think of?
I am smoke free for 8 days after 17 years of nonstop smoking, i am 35 now. Watched many of your videos, and have to say it really helps. Thank you! You are very gifted psychologist, charismatic, beautiful energy comes out of you. ❤ Bless you! 😘
I usually try to associate a feeling with smoking. Probably a feeling of content and happiness. I tried changing the activity with a similar feeling. I'm still struggling but feel that I am getting better at quitting.
It’s hard to make quitting smoking when you have a lot of stress in your life that has gotten more stressful as the years have gone by! How can you quit smoking when every year for years have gotten worse with all the stress of everything I have to handle in our lives?
I have made a secret thing to help me in my realization of what an awful smelling thing cigarettes are. I used a pair of wool gloves to go outside and smoke. THEY SMELL AWFUL! Smelling them helped me realize the awful smell! Hope it will help someone!
I know after watching this video that i will be a non smoker. I understand so much more about triggers and owning it. My quit date is getting closer and my desire to smoke is lessening each day.
I love your voice and speaking about ideas of quitting smoking thanks a lot I am daily watching urs videos and I will changing my self slowly thanks a lot God bless u ❤❤❤
Hi I really like your videos. I've failed to stop smoking many times. And I want to try again. It's more then 30 years that I'm a smoker. My question is: tomorrow that I've decided to stop smoking, should I through away my pack of cigarette (I vape) or still keep them with me? Thank you. With your method I feel very positive.
Or i spent 3 days in hospital after a stress induced heart attack March 2024... didn't miss smoking at all. Fast forward to now and back to smoking almost as much as I was before the heart attack. It built up slowly. First couple of weeks out of the hospital I was only smoking 5 cigarettes per day down from 30 cigarettes a day. After that it was 10 a day for a while then 15 and so on. I need to stop for so many reasons but when I try I get all these thoughts why I really don't have to like so and so smokes and is fine etc. It's hard. Heidi
So... all my positive thoughts about smoking are fake, its just my beliefs and perception etc and all my negative thoughts/beliefs about quitting are fake as well, i think its my aha moment right now😮
I quit smoking 17 years ago. But I developed a nicotine gum/mint habit. I had the "mind shift" she is talking about when I completely quit drinking alcohol 15 months ago. Because I have had that experience and can be tenacious if I want to achieve something, I know that I can quit the nicotine gum. I have some and I will be cutting down and will never again purchase any when it is gone. I'm thinking that will be in 2-3 weeks. I'm gonna follow this method - having the realization throughout the day that I didn't jump to gum/mint when I needed energy. I also do not plan to replace it with something else - such as Doublemint gum and lifesavers. These can become a habit as well. Also, I think I am developing a rash/sensitivity to nicotine gum. All the more reason to let it go!
Great Channel, glad i found you. I found using empowering questions to change my State from Tony Robbins a while back and decided to try it with smoking. I've definitely cut back so far and we'll see how far i get!
Welcome! I love the empowering questions by Tony Robbins. Shifting our mind and focus by using good questions is in alignment with the CBQ Method and what it teaches.
I'm sad to say that I used to quit smoking twelve to eight years ago. 10 months twice during the 4 year fugue. I thought of it as poison during that time. Now I can't remember how I thought that way.
Hi I'm new here and your videos makes sense, but what I'd like to know is a what stage is classed as a none smoke? I'm going to buy two writing books one for stopping smoking and one for not eating junk food as I'm a bad chocoholic, with cakes, biscuits, crisps, jaffa cakes are so norty as well, also every time I make a cup of tea I will smoke two cigs, as cigs and tea go together, like the lady said in your video she spent too much time smoking and drinking cupas, and that's not the best thing really, iv tryed so many times and as soon as I'm stressed I fail, I what to do this for myself but also I don't want to tel family or friends, I want to write about my journey my ups and downs along the way I'm not sure when it will happen I don't want to plan it as its never work before, so one day I will just start it out of the blue but I will have my writing books ready for that day, thank you for your videos they are going to be a great help along the way.
Hi Eddie, we're here to help, and we've had many members who quit smoking after 52, 55 and even 61 years of smoking, so you can do it too! cbqmethod.com/success-stories/ If you complete each quit smoking stage before moving to the next one you will succeed. There's no way to not succeed when you 1) make a committed decision 2) change your mindset around smoking 3) break your habit and smoke your last cigarette so you then 4) condition the change you made. Try to make sure you have completed a stage before moving forward. For example, if you still think of smoking as something you miss, then the mindset has not changed. If you need more help, request the CBQ starter guide at startcbq.com
We can do this Eddie. I smoked about 45 years. Im 43 days not smoking. The lozenge helps with really bad urges...free. While i work on chaging my old thought patterns. Im trying too buddy
I struggling to quit I say I'm going to cut down or stop but then get anxious I suffer mental health problems ptsd, major depression and anxiety and bipolar I really want to quit but I'm scared and anxious
I fell off the wagon today after 10 days being a non smoker. Sometimes I feel I'm never going to make it to the other side.. maybe I'm just destined to choke myself to death
Nobody is destined for this. All smokers were born non-smoker and that is our natural state. We are destined to be smoke-free. Falling off the wagon only means something didn't work out and needs more of your attention. I don't know how you quit but the 2 big reasons for relapse are 1) quitting smoking while still mentally addicted 2) lack of preparation
i disagree so much.. time is everything.. as soon as that intense anxiety goes away and will power starts to magically come back i can finally start to live again and look after myself.. after that first week you dont even crave smoking at all, time is literally everything when quitting so im extremely bothered you would say time doesnt change you or make it easier.. i understand that youve probably forgotten.. if youve ever even been addicted yourself.. cause it sure doesnt sound like you have the slightest idea what you are talking about.. perhaps the best time to give quitting advice would be just after youve done it yourself cause you soon forget what it was like and end up giving the wrong advice and saying detrimental things like you have at the start of this video, you need to delete this video seriously because so many people who havent made it through quitting before will hear this and lose all hope and think they are just going to be depressed and anxious and have no will power to change themselves forever.. when in reality aftr just 3 days of not smoking you can expect to start to feel some massive changes in your mental health and cravings and ability and will power to cope and live.. i suppose you make a lot of money off people trying to quit and thats why you are trying to prevent them from thinking they can do it without buying your apparently expensive program.. im beyond disgusted. delete your channel seriously you should be so ashamed of yourself.
Hi is this sem free? I completely understand if it’s not I know and can see she is amazing and obviously helps millions stop smoking. The government don’t want you to quit this is why they give out free nicotine patches that’s nicotine to stop nicotine daft when u think about it. Another amazing man is Allan carr he get into this in more detail and when you think about the corruption in the tobacco industry and gov it’s unbelievable, anyway keep up the good work davos your an amazing beautiful lady 😊
Thanks for watching! 🙌What was the moment you knew you’d stop smoking? Let me know in the comments? 👇
I haven't found it. I relapsed
Me too

I see two faces and a vase. And the vase is depressing me.
