Bye Bye Blues
These Stop Smoking Tips Will Help You to Say Good Bye to Cigarettes
Quitting smoking can be an uncomfortable experience because you are giving up something which you have done for a long time. So if you are reading this article with the intention to stop smoking then you may find these stop smoking tips very useful.
1. Grab your diary and pick a date in which you are going to stop smoking. Then tell at least three people that on this date you are going to be a non-smoker. Hold yourself accountable.
2. On a sheet of paper write down all of your reasons why you want to stop smoking. State these reasons in the positive, as your mind will always give you what you focus on. This is very similar to what would happen if I asked you not to start thinking of blue, by trying not to think about blue makes you think about it. For example:
Negative Reasons: “I don’t want my clothes smelling of cigarettes”. “I don’t want to get ill”.
Positive Reasons: “I want my clothes to smell clean and fresh”. “I want to stay healthy”.
3. Read through the positive reasons why you want to be a non-smoker daily and imagine having these benefits in you life now. This exercise will help you to do this.
Find a nice quiet place where you can relax, close your eyes and take a deep breath in. As you slowly exhale mentally say the word relax and imagine a wonderful wave of relaxation washing over your entire body. Repeat this process until you feel relaxed and then mentally say this suggestion to yourself;
“I am a non-smoker and I am going to remain a non-smoker for the rest of my life”
Once you have said the suggestion, imagine yourself in a situation feeling the benefits of this positive change. So if one of your reasons for stopping smoking is to save money you could imagine putting the money that you used to spend on cigarettes into a jar which is full.
Once you have played out this mental image inside your mind you would then repeat the suggestion to yourself again and create a new mental image. Once you have gone through all of your positive benefits you will then count upwards from 1 to 3 and open your eyes.
4. Don’t tell yourself that stopping smoking is tough because doing that only makes quitting much more difficult. One of the real keys to change is to focus on what it is you want. Stop telling yourself that stopping smoking is difficult and start telling yourself that stopping smoking is easy.
5. If the urge to smoke strikes, close your eyes, take a deep breath in and as you exhale imagine that urge leaving your body in a cloud of black smoke. Repeat this exercise until the urge as vanished and then use it as a when is required.
6. Purchase a stop smoking hypnosis CD and listen to it at least three times per week.

Crosby, Stills & Nash (1st Album, Expanded and Remastered) $6.17 As much as any record, CSN’s 1969 debut ushered in the early ’70s singer-songwriter boom. Yes, this was a group, but it was one made up of three coequal composer/vocalists, each with a heady resume–Crosby an ex- Byrd, Stills in Buffalo Springfield, and Nash a former member of the Hollies. Each supplied distinctive material and contributed to CSN’s trademark harmonies. The addition of Neil Young m… |

Mingus Ah Um $4.48 Mercurial bassist and bandleader Charles Mingus was signed to Columbia Records for the briefest of time during 1959. His Columbia recordings, however, remain some of the most inspired, mood-jumping jazz in history. The flowing sadness of “Goodbye Porkpie Hat” (unedited here for the first time on CD!) rings like a funeral chorus that pitches headlong into a celebration of Lester Young’s life and im… |
