My mother has been a smoker for many years now...?

Question:

She has tried to quit over and over again and nothing works. She does not like to take different types of medicines and things of that nature. I was wondering if anyone knew any kind of alternative ways to kick the habit. I really want her to quit.

Answers:
Yes--I had a boyfriend who smoked 30 years; I was allergic to cigarette smoke, and he decuided to quit for smoking for me. He was successful.

I gave him herbpharm's avena licorice compound. This apparently gave him the boost he needed to add to willpower.

http://www.gaines.com/store/SmokingCessation.html or other websites or health food stores sell it. It has an orange-yellowish label.

He had no cravings for 5 days. As a former smoker who quit cold turkey 30 years ago last month (I forgot that until you brought it up), I know having no cravings is not typical.

It is the lobelia in the formula that truly helps. The website below also attest to this and mentions Dr. schulze (along with other suggestions and talks of lobelia--just one of many sites)

See Schulze's index (stop smoking) for Dr. Schulze's suggestions of formulas to stop smoking and his website for buying lobelia, and his other recommendations.
http://herbdoc.com/p64.asp

Dr, Schulze (1-800-herbdoc) has the best tinctures on the market 99.9% organic/wildcrafted which are 8 times higher in psytochemicals which cure and prevent diseases and he doesn't schimp on the herbs..

if I was doing only two things--I would use the herbpharm avena-licorice and schultze's lobelia as well if you can afford it..herbpharm is also one of the best companies--

try this first if only using one thing over the lobelia as the avena-licorice also contains lobelia.

Lobelia is an amazing herb and the only herb Dr. hristopher (the father of odern herbology and Schulze teacher did an entire chapter of in his book (the school of natural healig)...he calls it the thinking herb.

Also go to the library or health food store and look at the suggestions Linda Rector Page gives in her book "healthy healing"---one of the best health books ever.

She will be so happy when she quits and save so much money and drastically improve her health so tell her to keep trying...

Good luck!

Hypnosis has helped many people. I've heard of acupuncture helping as well.

Good luck.

take her cigarettes and throw them away... you have to be aggressive. make her feel guilty about what she's doing. tell her she's being selfish if she continues to hurt herself... ask her to do it for you... take her cigarettes away and stomp them.
