Thirty Days Later – 36% Have Abandoned Their New Years Resolution by Barbara Mascio

A low-level laser treatment, which removes the physical cravings, along with the support of a licensed addiction counselor is now available in Ohio.

The program even addresses weight gain. You can quit smoking without gaining weight and without the physical withdrawal symptoms! See http://www.seniorsapprove.com/stopsmokingnow Or contact Advanced Laser Solutions in Garfield Hts Ohio at 216-663-7360.

QCO conducted an independent survey of clients that have used the services at Advanced Laser Solutions. Contact Quality Care Options at 877-620-6448 to learn about the success rate of this treatment.

Here are some helpful hints for long-term success with your resolution:

• Visualizing yourself smoke-free makes a self-fulfilling prophecy. A helpful book is ‘The Power of Visualization’, by Lee Pulos.

• Realize that some people do not want you to quit because it emphasizes their behavior and puts pressure on them to quit. Avoid them temporarily.

• Making positive statements to yourself is helpful. For instance, "I am enjoying being able to breathe better," "I am free of the desire to smoke," and "I am relaxed and calm."

• Stress is a trigger to smoking. Learn new ways to deal with stress.

• Smokers who embrace a regular exercise program have about twice the success rate of non-exercisers. The higher the level of activity, the higher the success rate.

The Ohio Quit Line (800) 934-4840) will offer you additional resources and assistance. See http://www.standohio.org
