Natural Remedies to Stop Smoking

There are many ways that people attempt to stop smoking cigarettes. Some of these methods involve harsh pharmaceuticals that can have profound side effects. Other methods involve weening the smoker off of nicotine slowly, via a gradual decreased dose. Still, there are other methods that people use successfully every day to quit this terrible habit that are 100% natural and have no side effects.

Hypnosis
That's right, hypnosis! For those who are open minded enough to allow themselves to be hypnotized, this may be something to try considering it's rate of success. However, this therapy often requires repeated visits to a licensed hypnotist which can quickly become quite costly.

Acupuncture
The idea here is to concentrate on key pressure points and other specific areas all across the body and penetrate them with special hair thin needles. Again, this kind of therapy requires multiple visits which can really rack up the bill.

Lobelia
This is a special herb derived from a certain species of flowering plant called Lobelia that helps quitters deal with the inevitable withdrawal symptoms they'll experience when giving up cigarettes. It's chemical makeup naturally eases tension and anxiety.

Books
Sounds funny, I know, but there are books out there that have successfully helped millions of people all around the world quit smoking. Many of these books are written in a specific way that actually attempts to "brainwash" the reader into giving up cigarettes as they progress through each chapter. Many people find themselves giving these books a try as a last resort and are often surprised by the results!
