Quit-smoking-hypnosis-cd

I love watching television. If I can ever use a television program or a movie as an example, I jump at the chance! On a particular episode of That 70s Show, one of the teens was accused of buying marijuana. In an effort to stop him or any of the other teens he hung out with from smoking, one of the fathers gets an idea to put up a smoke detector in their hangout his downstairs basement. Contrary to popular belief, smoking does not set off smoke alarms. (Unless you are in a bingo hall man, those people can puff!)

However, there are cigarette smoking alarms now manufactured to detect unwanted smoking. The larger companies that have installed cigarette smoke detectors have ranged from hotels (just let them catch you smoking in a non-smoking room!) to public schools (Sorry no more smoking in the bathroom stalls). Whether or not this type of a smoke detector is actually a feasible expense, depends upon what it is used for. It seems that this is more of an infringement upon another persons right, as well as a cheap, easy, and actually legitimate method for hotels to make money.

Say, for example, that you are a smoker. There are no more smoking rooms available at a hotel you are meant to stay at, in order to attend a wedding. Once inside the room, you put all of your clothes away, use the bathroom, call a few friends in town, and have a seat on the bed to wait for a return call. You pop on the television, sit back against the bed headrest, and light up a cigarette. A couple of minutes later, the smoke detector go off. You call the front desk, and they tell you that hotel security is linked to the alarms, and cannot be reset until the fire department gets there. Once the fire department issues that is was a false alarm, the detector is reset, and you receive a phone call from the hotel owners.

To your surprise (and anger), the owners want YOU to pay the fire department bill (for smoking in a non-smoking room), as well as a deionization treatment for the room. The deionization cleans the air in the room, and thereby removes the smoke smell. It leaves a bit of a smell like an electrical charge. This entire episode may seem out of the ordinary, but as a previous night shift desk clerk of a highly recognized hotel chain it has happened!

Well, if there is one thing to make you think about quitting, it could be the idea that a $275 bill could be waiting for you right around the corner ($225 for the false alarm and $50 to deionize the room). In addition, not only do you have yourself to blame, but also you will have had all of this drama for about twenty-five cents -- the cost of a single cigarette. Was it worth it?

So now you're a little more educated. You know the benefits of quitting smoking. But knowing the benefits of quitting smoking is rarely enough to get people to quit. They need help. If you're looking to quit smoking and you're actually looking for a way to do it ON THE FIRST TRY, then CLICK HERE to Learn The Step-By-Step System that led over 95% of smokers to quit on their very first try!

This is the time of year when we make New Years resolutions. One of the most common New Years resolutions is to quit smoking. It is important to understand why you are addicted before you start any program. Understanding how nicotine affects the body is the fist step in quitting smoking. The second step is picking the right program for you to help you achieve your goal of becoming a non-smoker.

Nicotine is a type of chemical called an alkaloid. Many plants containing alkaloids are poisonous and produce a bitter taste when eaten. Nicotine is found in cigarettes, but it has other uses as well. Weed killers and insecticides also contain nicotine. Nicotine is extremely potent. A person would die if the nicotine found in 2.5 cigarettes were directly injected into a persons bloodstream.

Nicotine enters the bloodstream through the lungs. It quickly reaches the brain, where it affects certain chemicals that change the way you feel. Eventually the brain becomes dependent on nicotine to control these chemicals that make you feel normal.

Nicotine is more addictive than heroine is. As smokers become addicted to nicotine, they will develop a tolerance to nicotine- meaning that they need to smoke more cigarettes in order to feel the same effects they did when they first started.

Nicotine can have different effects on people. Some say nicotine relaxes them when they are upset. Others say that it energizes them and raises alertness when they are tired. The affects vary according to each person and how much they have inhaled. Nicotine also causes the heart to beat faster, veins to constrict, blood pressure to rise, and the adrenal glands to pump out adrenaline that raises the metabolism and suppresses hunger.

Nicotine interferes with the transmission of information between the nerve cells. It also affects sections of the brain that regulate pleasurable feelings, called reward circuits. The neurotransmitter dopamine is one chemical affected by smoking; nicotine raises the level of dopamine in the brains reward circuits, causing the smoker to experience pleasure. Other chemicals impacted by nicotine are serotonin, which controls mood, norepinephrine, which affects arousal and appetite, and beta- endorphin, which reduces anxiety.

Remember that every year the tobacco companies pour millions of dollars into research to keep you addicted! The time is right to stop smoking and get healthy. For more information on quitting smoking you can go to my website at http://www.healthsolutionsandyou.com
