Hi,

 

I have found that homeopathic tobacco : tobacum 30c or 200c, once a week for a

while helps avoid the weight gain as your body adjust to not having

nicotine. It is also important to ask yourself: what is smoking doing for me,

and try to full that need in a more self promoting manner. 40 days

of Kirtan Kriya will usually adjust your psyche once you have quit so you won't

want to start again - as long as you do the other two things as

well.

 

Hope this helps.

Dear Anne Marie,

Putting on weight and being a good example for your students are the least

of your worries...You need to come to grips with what smoking is really

doing to you. Go to a cancer ward in a hospital, or a hospice and talk with

the people there...get in tune with what your body is telling you...

Kundalini Yoga will help a great deal, I'm sure, but until you really get

what your doing to yourself straight in your mind, you will have a hard time

with this one...

Take the longest deepest breath you can...and when you finish that one, take

another. Don't quit until you have quit!

I'm an ex smoker of 15 years and it was really a hard thing to do, but it's

much harder to keep smoking when you finally get what your doing to

yourself. I wish you all the best and hope this helps you.

Many Blessings,

Bob

Thanks for the perverbial warning, Bob. I should know better. I've tried

all the aids at one time or another to no avail. It's something within me

that has to click in to shed the dreadful habit. It so contradicts

everything that I am or what I would perceive myself to want to be. I'll

keep up with praticing KY. I've been told I will get there....guaranteed!=)

Sat Nam,

Di

With all due respect Di, I want to tell you that in my experience continuing

to smoke anything is only going to prolong your symptoms...ie the urge to

smoke. In some respects I think that the nicotine patches are a better

alternative because they don't reinforce the smoking habits, and that is a

huge part of the addiction. I really don't like the patches either though,

because they are delivering nicotine to your system, and that's the other

half of the problem. That doesn't mean that either system won't work for

you...I just wanted to point out the pit-falls. Best of luck.

Sat Nam,

Bob
