Best Way to Stop Smoking
When you smoke a cigarette, you take yourself back to the same condition you were in before you started smoking! What are the effects of this? How do we understand this? What are the causes? First, do you agree with what I’ve said above? Maybe you don’t and I politely ask you to reread what is written.
Most smokers believe they gain something when they smoke. They believe that by smoking they get something extra that non-smokers don’t have. As a smoker, you have the feeling of certainty when you smoke, a feeling of power in a difficult situation, a friend in a difficult moment, a relief when stressed. All feelings we believe that we have and non-smokers don’t have.
I can still vividly remember making a trip through the USA with my parents. I was 21 that summer and in those days it was a big deal for a family from Belgium to go on vacation to the USA. The whole family was looking forward to it; I would finally visit my dream country! We were going to the areas I wanted to see the most. We were going to go to the West Coast. California, Arizona, Nevada, the Grand Canyon, Yellowstone Park and Marlboro Country–Monument Valley.
My room at home was already filled with every possible poster about Marlboro Country, so I could imagine how the countryside looked. When I looked at the pictures of the cowboys and the horses, I could feel the breeze and the sound of the birds in the sky.
Then I was actually standing in Monument Valley! So I lit a cigarette with my Zippo and took a deep pull. What a feeling. I felt I was in control of the whole world. I was calm, relaxed and enjoying the wonderful view over Monument Valley. And I was thankful that I could share this moment with a cigarette in my mouth. Without this cigarette, the experience wouldn’t have been as nice, at least that’s what I thought then and there.
It’s the balloon feeling that gives us this impression. When the balloon is inflated, we feel great, when the balloon is empty, we feel like we are missing something, we feel hungry and we feel the same as when we are in love. We have butterflies in our stomach. Remember this feeling for later on because we will come back to this when we speak about withdrawal pains.
See you soon,
