5 Stars This Book Probably Saved My Life
I’ve read both Allen Carr’s books on quitting smoking – today I’m a confirmed non-smoker! His approach to “reprogramming” all those lies about smoking really worked – I just simply don’t want or need to smoke anymore! Simply amazing book! It should be mandatory reading in high schools/colleges/hospitals, etc – anywhere there are still people smoking!

3 Stars Books are great but you have to Want to Quit
I gave this book to my girlfriend in the hopes she would stop smoking! She has reduced the amount of “breaks” throughout the day but is still smoking. Books can only do so much. If you have the right frame of mind this book can provide support. Good Luck to anyone trying to quit!

2 Stars Not what I expected
As a supplement to Alan Carr’s oringinal easyway book, the little book of quitting is cool. But alone, this book is not really all that motivational. I read the Easyway and this book twice, and I’m still smoking like a chimney. Don’t waste your money, just go buy some patches.

5 Stars Great Little Companion Book
Bought this with “The Easy Way to Stop Smoking” – it’s a great little companion book that highlights the main points of The Easy Way.

5 Stars Good Tool
I quit after reading this book. It really doesn’t tell you anything you don’t already know, but seeing it all condensed into one place, page after page, drove it all home for me, anyway.

5 Stars pseudo cigarette pack
Very handy and convenient little book full of a lot of USEFUL information. I like how it narrowed down what kind of smoker I was. That’s important since the quitting steps differ between the various types. Although, great… You still have to WANT to quit for it to work.

5 Stars I read a lot of books – this was one of them.
When I was trying to give up smoking I read a lot of books. this was one of them. this was one of the beter ones. The one that did it for me though was The Voice of Tobacco. Good book, great idea, stopped me and made me laugh as well.

5 Stars It worked!
I smoked 2-3 packs a day of menthols and tried the pills and hypnosis but neither worked. Read this book in less then 2 hours and haven’t smoked since! That was over 7 years now and saved thousands of dollars not to mention smelling like a dirty ashtray. Please try this book before you blow money on useless treatments like I did. Good luck!

5 Stars HELPS YOU QUIT ANYTHING
I used this book years ago to quit smoking (successfully now, for 20+ years). Besides the very good advice about how to quit smoking, I especially like the pages in the back where you list your reasons for quitting. You can use this technique for quitting anything, so this book is very handy as a diet book if you want to lose weight. Just keep going back to your list of reasons for losing weight, e.g. health, blood pressure, get into small size jeans, etc. , and you will find it easier to modify your behaviour. The book is small enough to carry in your pocket, like a pack of cigs. Keep re-reading page 109, and your list of reasons, and it will help you quit any bad habits you truly want to change.

5 Stars EXCELLENT BOOK to help stop smoking!!!
I usually don’t write reviews for anything—, but I just have to tell you that George Wissing’s Book ” Stop Smoking For the Last Time ” is packed with some dynamite information– for those of you who are looking to stop smoking.

Folks, this is good stuff! If you really DESIRE to stop smoking, I highly recommend this book.

I’ve smoked for about 40 years averaging 2-3 packs a day. In the past, I have tried practically all the different gimmicks (patches, the gum, hypnosis, Chantix, the cold turkey approach or rather “the old willpower method”). Nothing worked.

Wissing’s approach is quite unique, a truly revitalizing & inspirational method. Your answers to YOUR particular smoking problem can be found within the pages of this book.

I read the book last night and this morning, I decided I didn’t want to smoke anymore. Yes, just like that! No magic, there is some work involved– but if you have the right frame of mind— this can SEEM like magic. No kidding!

5 Stars Must Have If You Want To Quit
This book is a must have if you’re sincere about quitting smoking. I spent a long time trying to quit unsuccessfully. George’s book gave me an in depth understanding of the roadblocks I had created for myself. George’s book then armed me with the mental tools I needed to overcome my habit. I did the online session (1/2 hour) and have not smoked since! My withdrawl symptoms were minimal. Thanks George!

5 Stars A must-read for even the non-smoker
I just finished reading George Wissing’s new book, Stop Smoking for the Last Time. WOW! What a breath of fresh air. As a physician and surgeon, I had never heard of anything like this before. It truly shed new light on a common problem that I as a doctor have to deal with on a daily basis. I’m not a smoker, but reading this book gave me so much insight into the mind of the smoker, and even more reason to be kind, patient, and understanding of their true “addiction”, which Mr. Wissing states is not due to nicotine. He makes some convincing arguments that it’s not so much a chemical dependency that’s keeping you addicted, but more of an emotional one that leads to a Pavlovian “habit.” His concept of smoking as a form of deep breathing and meditation was what really gave me an “ah-ha” moment for me.

Even if you don’t smoke, or if you have other “habits” such as an eating problem, this book’s basic concepts can be applied to almost any of life’s problem areas. I’ve already started implementing some of his recommendations into my life, and I’m already beginning to feel better.

People often say, “I am not ready to quit smoking.” This book gives you a step by step plan that will show you how to get ready to quit. Quitting smoking is like going into battle. With this plan in place you will be ready to win!

You will learn how to develop your will power and tap into an incredible source of “Self-Power.” This plan shows you exactly what to do.

It is textbook format with ten brainstorming exercises you must do. People who smoke are often on “auto-pilot-thinking.” This plan interupts the “auto-pilot” and shows you how to re-write the script.

It is true, you do not have to want to quit smoking but you do have to want to change something about how you make decisions. It is not complicated. As a matter of fact it is all very easy. By doing the exercises and following through with the plan you will “see” exactly what is holding you on to cigarettes. When you “see” what is keeping you addicted it becomes a whole lot easier to let go.

This book will show you how to eliminate 75% of the nicotine fits if not more.

When you are all done the “work” you will have made a one of a kind, custom made tool that will tell you what to think, when to think it, what to do and when. How to act and how not to act. You will use this tool when you open your “Last Pack.”

This method tells why I do not recommend “Cold Turkey.” You will know when the best time to quit is and how to use your last pack.

I often hear people say, “I have tried everything.” My response is, “Have you looked in the mirror?”

The answers lie inside you, not in the drugstore. This book is about finding your inner strength. You can quit smoking! It is not impossible!

Some of the exercises can help you change other areas of your life you are not completely satisfied with.

My plan and method is about transforming your mind into one that will make empowering decisions. You will be empowered!

This is a serious subject with a twist of humor. I am sure you will enjoy it!

Do not be afraid of trying to quit smoking. Be afraid of what will happen if you do not! Be free! Go for it!

5 Stars How To Quit Smoking Even If You Don’t Want To
I bought this book years ago and enjoyed the sensible, easy-to-follow approach. I successfully quit smoking. I have since purchased it as a gift for friends several times.

5 Stars It Helped A Lot.
I almost hate to review this book because it will publicly link my name with smoking. It is worth it, though, because this review may help someone else to ditch cigarettes. I thought I needed all the help I could get to stop smoking. I liked the approach this author has and I still refer to this book. It has a no nonsense approach that appealed to me and works well into the process of stopping smoking. I recommend this book to anyone who is considering breaking their smoking habit.

1 Star Too many errors
This book needs some serious editing. I couldn’t get past the numerous grammatical errors in the introduction and first chapter to finish the book. I don’t expect perfection, but there were numerous cases where the author didn’t know the difference between different forms of words (”they’re”, “there”, and “their”, for example) and repeated the same mistake over and over.

A new edition of the revolutionary bestseller, with four million copies in print. Allen Carr’s innovative Easyway method—which he discovered after his own 100-cigarette-a-day habit nearly drove him to despair—has helped millions kick smoking without feeling anxious and deprived. That’s because he helps smokers discover the psychological reasons behind their dependency, explains in detail how to handle the withdrawal symptoms, shows them how to avoid situations when temptation might become too strong, and enables them to stay smoke-free. Carr discusses such issues as nicotine addiction; the social “brainwashing” that encourages smoking; the false belief that a cigarette relieves stress; the role boredom plays in sabotaging efforts to stop; and the main reasons for failure. With this proven program, smokers will be throwing away their packs for good.

5 Stars fast
Received the book very quickly and it was in good condition. Well worth the price and worked its magic in under a week. Haven’t smoked in two months and found it wasn’t difficult to do at all!! I can now say I am a non-smoker!!!

5 Stars Wow, it works!
I’ve now given this book to eight of my friends who smoke. Five of them have quit for good. One is reading the book as I write this. This is a no-nonsense, non-scare tactic way to quit if you really want to quit. He really breaks your addiction down simply and and effectively. If you truly want to quit (a lot of smokers say they do, but they don’t, actually) this book should do the trick.

5 Stars Three Days Shy of Eight Months

My most recent purchase of this book was actually for my brother. I, however, read it over eight months ago and quit smoking cold turkey on January 14th, 2009 after being a smoker for 16 years.

It really was the easy way to quit smoking and I can happily say that I’m a non-smoker for good now.

Currently, I recommend this book to all of my smoking friends who mention wanting to quit. It’s the best way I’ve seen thus far.

5 Stars It helps BIG TIME!!!
I heard about this book in an online forum weeks ago and found it recently in a book store. In conjuction with a medication to quit smoking this book has helped tremendously! The way Allen Carr exposes the illusions of smoking is amazing. I now see smoking in a way that I never would have realized without the book. If you want to quit smoking, I HIGHLY recommend this book. It has helped me…

1 Star If you’re desperate to spend your cig money on something…
Ok, so you’re going to quit smoking…. CONGRATS!!!! WOOHOO!!! GOOD FOR YOU!!!!!

So you can’t think of a reason to quit? What are ya deaf, blind, dumb, and living on a deserted island?

Search the Internet, learn about tobacco related illness and ask any ex-smoker what’s wrong with smoking…voila…you now have a TON MORE than this book is going to offer you.

However, if you need a small paperback pocketbook that simply lists items such as “Your mama is going to be so pleased with you” and “Less risk of illness” then go ahead and spend your money on this book.

The book is worth FAR MORE than a pack of cigarettes so if it comes down to smokes or this book..then buy the book.

3 Stars Well…..okay
It delivered what it said it would – 1,440 reasons to quit. Not all of them inspired though … It’s a small book too – the type is also small. I didn’t think it was worth the money spent. You could find more inspiration online or from sections of more meaty books like Complete Idiots Guide to Quitting. After getting through the first few pages I was like “Dang! – I could do a more imaginative job myself” (and I’m a crummy writer) But hey, if you want to send a message to a smoking friend …. this is a positive and non-confrontational way to do it….would make a good stocking stuffer too (it’s that small…)

5 Stars 3 years in April
As a nurse, I had tried many methods to quit. While reading this book, I put a checkmark next to the reasons that I could relate to. I then typed all of those reasons over, “brainwashing” myself to some degree. For example, the next time I thought I deserved a cigarette to celebrate I remembered a reason… there are other ways to reward yourself besides putting your mouth on a tailpipe. It is so true, I went to Starbucks and still saved money!!!

Please give this book a try.

5 Stars SMOKERS AND EX-SMOKERS MUST BUY THIS BOOK
This book got me to quit. I’ve tried quitting a hundred times. I smoked for 24 years since I was 14 years old and have never gone more than 2 months without a cigarette until now. I’ve been quit for 3 months as of today and I’m nowhere close to going back; I’m done with this disgusting habit. I’ve used a million different strategies to quit and I always went back to smoking…until I bought this book. Whenever I tried to quit before I would have a reason to quit that I thought would work. For example, I would quit because of my health, or my tennis game, or my love life. Whatever. Eventually, when faced with enormous cravings, these excuses didn’t hold up to the power of nicotine. What this book does is give you 1440 reasons to quit, not just one or two reasons. Now, when I get a really bad craving where I think I’m going to bust, I just pick up 1440 Reasons To Quit Smoking and I realize what a dangerous and stupid habit it is. Now, if I was to ever decide to smoke again, it would just be suicide pure and simple. Also, go to quitnet.net, the best website in the world if you want to stop smoking.

5 Stars I really got a kick out of this book.
This book is funny. I got started on it and found it very amusing and could hardly put in down.

The decision to quit smoking is far from a casual one. Quitting smoking involves your complete commitment; it must become your number-one priority. Mustering all the support you can get, you need to decide to turn up the flame on your survival instincts, your belief in a healthy future, and your will power and faith that you can and will quit.

The sooner you stop smoking, the better your chances of avoiding some of the unwelcome consequences of smoking. You body and brain begin to recover almost immediately. Cigarette cravings aside, your body wants to stop smoking, and the moment you cut loose the smokes, your respiratory system begins to clear itself out. Here are just a few of the benefits you can reap from kicking the habit:

• A longer life with a lower risk of cancer and other deadly diseases
• No more sore throats, congested lungs, and persistent cough
• The ability to exercise and “get back into shape”
• Kissable breath and clothes that don’t smell like you just came home from a bar
• Being able to really taste good food
• Pleasing your family and friends and no more being the outcast

Like all smokers, you’ve probably tried to quit a half dozen times, only to relapse. Perhaps you’d given up all hope of being able to quit, but now you’re getting pressure from others, such as family members, to end your smoking career completely. But how do you take those first steps? And how do you follow through with your commitment to quit smoking? Quitting Smoking For Dummies can help.

Quitting Smoking For Dummies takes a total approach to help you quit smoking

Our highly successful Stop Smoking Hypnosis Program consists of three stop smoking CDs.
Stop Smoking Hypnosis Motivation, guides you through a series of relaxation techniques and suggestions, which will decrease your desire and increase your motivation to quit smoking – simply by listening to this relaxing hypnosis CD as you drift to sleep.
At the end of this first week, you will listen to The Stop Smoking Hypnosis Session. This hypnosis session will gently guide you into a very deep state of relaxation. Once in this relaxed state, you are given a series of powerful suggestions that will permanently free you from any desire to smoke! You will only need to listen to this hypnosis session once, as you will be a Non-Smoker at the end of this session!
After becoming a Non-Smoker, you will begin listening to Forever Smoke Free! This hypnosis session will further reinforce and strengthen your commitment to remain permanently smoke free!
Why is “Forever Smoke Free!” so effective?
By creating direct access to the most powerful part of the mind, the subconscious, you can teach your subconscious mind to automatically act in the ways that best suit your goals, rather than relying on poor habits that you’ve built up over the years.
When you align what you consciously desire with your subconscious motivations…stopping smoking has never been easier!
Can everyone be hypnotized?
Yes. Have you ever been driving a familiar route home and suddenly arrived at your destination without remembering the last few minutes of the drive? This is one example of our subconscious mind taking over the routine details of life. Our subconscious mind handles most of our day to day activities. That is the subconscious mind’s job – to handle the details of life, while our conscious mind handles the more important needs.
Most clients are amazed at how quickly they accomplish their desired results. Unlike traditional therapies, Hypnotherapy is able to help you reach your goals without going through years of self-exploration.
When You Are Ready!
Reach your goals faster than ever! You can and will make permanent, positive changes in your personal and professional life. Beverly Hills Hypnosis offers an effective, relaxing, drug-free choice for change.

User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Amazingly effective
I was a deeply sceptical user but I did what the cd’s told me to do and amazingly I gave up my pack a day habit. I listened to cd1 a week before my quit date. The day before my quit date I was still sceptical but woke up the next day and had NO urge to smoke. Didn’t even need the nicotine patches. This is a truly remarkable technique to give up smoking.

2 Stars Should have come with a manual.
The documentation for these CD’s is totally inadequate.

I found myself not wanting to smoke….true enough. But I couldn’t figure out if I was listening to the right CD or not (there were 3). I stopped using the program after the first disc because I didn’t know what to do next or when.

The voice of the author is a little strange.

I will be looking for another CD kit from another author. This CD kit has promise if the author would use this feedback.

5 Stars This system works
I have tried many times to quit smoking and never managed more than 1 day. I used this system and am now into my second week, smoke free. After more than 20 years as a smoker, I believe I have the support I needed to quit for good. If you follow the system as instructed and just relax then it will work!

2 Stars irritating voice
The actual hypnosis part was surprisingly effective for me, but the second time I listened, the author’s somewhat nasal voice and vocal affectations began to really irritate me. His voice is just too distracting.

1 Star Forever Smoke Free
Forever Smoke Free! Stop Smoking Hypnosis (3 CD Set) [Box set] Absolute waste of my money. Save your money and try something else. These C.D.’s had no effect on my smoking what so ever. You’ll be better off wishing on a star………………………

5 Stars IT WAS AMAZING!
I AM 37 YEARS OLD AND I STARTED SMOKING 26 YEARS AGO (YES WHEN I WAS 11) I HAVE BEEN SMOKING AT LEAST 2 PACKS A DAY FOR THE PAST 16 YEARS.I HAVE NEVER NOT ONE TIME HONESTLY TRIED TO STOP SMOKING. I READ THE FIRST 47 PAGES OF THIS BOOK AND ACTUALLY PAID ATTENTION TO WHAT SHE WAS SAYING. THEN IT WAS TIME FOR ME TO LISTEN TO THE CD. I WAITED 2 DAYS BEFORE I LISTENED TO THE CD. I WAS SCARED TO STOP SMOKING. I KNEW I WOULD MISS IT AND REALLY DIDN’T THINK I WOULD BE ABLE TO QUIT. WELL, IT HAS NOW BEEN 3 DAYS AND I HAVE NOT HAD ONE CIGARETTE. THE THOUGHT HAS CROSSED MY MIND A TIME OR TWO, BUT NOTHING BAD ENOUGH TO MAKE ME GO BACK TO SMOKING. IT DOESN’T EVEN BOTHER ME TO BE AROUND PEOPLE WHO ARE SMOKING. I CAN’T BELIEVE IT BUT THE SMOKE ACTUALLY STUNK TO ME I THOUGHT I WOULD ENJOY THE SMELL, SINCE I HADN’T HAD A CIGARETTE.I HAVE OFFERED EVERYONE I KNOW THATSMOKES THE USE OF MY BOOK AND CD IF THEY WANT IT. IT WAS WELL WORTH WHATEVER I PAID FOR IT.

1 Star Not impressed
This book and CD had no effect what so ever, other than perhaps to get me more determined to find something that really works.

5 Stars stop smoking in one hour
hi,

for me this book did the trick, within that hour or two had a craving for a cigarette and tried to smoke it and could not inhale and it felt like i was dying, but you really want to do it, speaking from a person who smoke for 30 years 1 to 2 packs per day i have not touch a butt for 2 1/2 months and everybody around smokes and it doesnt bother me and it is true…. mind over matter….. i dont mind not haven it and it does not matter to me….. i can smell, i can walk without out of breathe,

it great not having that nasty butts

5 Stars amazing
I have been smoking a pack a day since 1985. I have tried everything to quit, patches, gum, lozenges, and I even went to a hypnotist.

I have no idea what it is about this cd but it worked. I read the book first then listened to the cd before I went to bed. I woke up the next morning with out any desire to smoke. I still had the habit of smoking. After I would eat I would think “I need a cigarette” but then the thought of it made me sick. In fact the smell makes me want to vomit. Even just thinking about smoking makes me cringe. I am finally a non-smoker. I finally have my life back and I don’t stink anymore.

I am loaning and purchasing this for all my smoking friends. Never have I had such great results from hynosis for anything.

5 Stars I forgot I had ever been a smoker !
I have tried to quit in the past but felt not so convinced about it, I felt miserable anytime I had a smoker near by. With this method, the first week was tough but respiratory exercise and this sort of irrational belief that something changed in me helped me. Now I enjoy inhaling with deep breaths. No exhauted lungs by smoke and toxic chemicals. It is 10 times as good as a cigarette ! I am full of energy, no soar throat when I wake up or worst desatrous headache after late nights if I drink a bit. I quit smoking and I know it is for good, when I am seing a smoker, i feel sad for him.
