One of many 5-star Testamonials:
“I bought this book with the intentions of giving up smoking as my new years resolution. I received this book in the mail on Dec. 23. I had 2 cigarettes left so I figured “why not quit tonight”. I had 1 last cigarette than laid down in bed an read a little of the book, when it came time to listen to the cd I turned off the lights put on my headphones and just relaxed. I woke up the next morning feeling great. I knew I had 1 cigarette left in the pack, I broke it up and threw it out. I haven’t smoked since!!!! A few times I had slight urges (nothing compared to the times I tried to quit before) I did the breathing excercises as instructed in the book and they really work. I’ve been smoking for 12 years, the past 6 years I’ve been smoking a pack per day. I’ve tried many times to quit before with no luck. I strongly urge anyone looking to quit smoking to buy this book.”

The Easy Way to Stop Smoking – A Book by Allen Carr
October 20th, 2007
After numerous attempts to quit his 100 cigarette a day habit, Allen Carr came up with a plan to quit smoking that finally worked for him. He wrote this book based on his plan. The book became a best seller and has sold millions world-wide.
I did not use his plan to quit smoking. I purchased this book out of curiosity five months after I smoked my last cigarette. I found the book to be very reinforcing to my resolve not to smoke. Carr discusses everything about the nicotine addiction – triggers, social pressure, smoking and boredom, etc. He gives practical solutions to overcoming these situations along with great analogies about the misconceptions of nicotine addiction.
One analogy I particularly liked was that of wearing shoes that are too tight all evening. By the end of the night, your feet are killing you.
You are so relieved to take off those shoes and your feet feel so good. However, if you had not put those shoes on in the first place, you would not have sore feet. In the same manner, smoking does not relax or calm you down – smoking merely relieves the situation that smoking created in the first place – the need for nicotine.
I can’t tell you that Allen Carr has discovered an “easy” way to give up nicotine. I personally don’t think there is an easy way. I think there are lots of ways that will work, but they all take personal effort . I think what Allen Carr has done is write an extremely readable, well written book chock full of ideas to help you in your mental efforts to quit smoking. If you buy this book thinking he is going to give you an easy out from addiction, I think you will be disappointed. If you buy this book, however, to use as an additional tool in your efforts at smoke cessation, I think you find it to be valuable.
