I recommended this book to a patient over one year ago. He told his friend about it, a friend who had been smoking for over 30 years, and has not had a cigarette for over one year since. My patient is presently reading the book and is quitting this weekend. Thanks for the idea of the book!! (This patient was diagnosed 2 years ago with cancer of the tongue - a disease directly caused by smoking).
to drLove: Woohoo! God is in da house! One cool thing about signing up early as a Holonation is that we get pretty much whatever member name we want. e.g. God gets to be "God", rather than "God378". God378 just wouldn't have the same oomph.
to drLove: Hey drLove! What a wonderful beautiful person you are! And what an awesome website you have created! If I ever get sick, I'm coming to visit you! ;-)
To answer your question, the book helps smokers by challenging and giving readers the opportunity to change the beliefs that keep them smoking. For example, many smokers will say they smoke because it is relaxing, calms them down, or gives them something to do with their hands. These are all beliefs along the lines of "I smoke because..." When you can't fill in that blank anymore you simply stop easily and permanently.
I highly recommend this book to people who love someone who smokes. The author includes a chapter about how you can help loved ones to stop and it's also great to really understand why people smoke!
Love,
God
I LOVE testimonies that involve dramatic turn arounds. It reminds me that all things are possible. I'm just curious: from this book, is it changing beliefs that is the key for a person to stop smoking, or does the author give actual techniques that help?
I am so happy to hear that this has helped another person! Love, God

If God has signed up, Holonation is definately on the move!

Kinda makes me wish I was a smoker so I could read this book and turn my life around. :) Thanks for the great Testimony.
