Quitting Smoking...

I'm not a smoker. As I was curious, I searched through the posts to see if there was anything about using homeopathy to help people stop smoking. There was nothing posted. Has anyone had experience with this?

Smokers will only quit when they are ready to do so!!! Caladium 12c sucked before smoking a cigarette makes it taste disgusting!!

Two friends of mine quit smoking by using Tabacum 30C. Took a tsp of the aqueous dilution when they craved a cigarette

It's always best to go with the constitutional. I've seen it work repeatedly.

There are ways to make the experience of smoking less pleasurable, like using Caladium, but constitutional treatment can also help. A patient of mine suddenly announced that he wanted to stop entirely, even though he wasn't smoking that frequently any longer. A single dose of Ignatia was, for him, like pulling a switch: it totally killed any desire to light up.
Peace,
Dale

Here's a copy of JW's quit smoking recipe:

"Take small bottle (like small water or soda bottle)
Fill 3/4 with water
Light favorite cigarette
Inhale
Exhale INTO THE BOTTLE
Repeat until cigarette is finished
Shake bottle well
Pour out 9/10th of the bottle
Re-fill
Shake well
Repeat the pour and re-fill five more times
You now have a bottle of 5X (roughly) tobacco smoke
SIP whenever you want to light up
--------------
His comments:

I've used this a few times and it works well.

Best to also have constitutional treatment too."

Atb,

Just one more piece to this,.
As someone said, if they do not want to quit they will not take the remedy.

I ask my patients to take a few weeks of prep time before quitting smoking"

1) week one - smoke all you want to, but write down all the times you have a cigarette.

2) week two and three - smoke all you want to, but do NOT smoke a cigarette at any of the times on your list. This helps to break the conditioned response of when someone smokes.

3) week four, etc - have a dose of the remedy when you have a strong craving for a cigarette.

Good Luck, it does work but it is awfully hard to keep people off cigarettes.

Who said, "Quitting smoking is easy, I do it all the time." (anonymous?)

This is what I give to my patients who want to give up smoking
TRYING TO GIVE UP SMOKING
Try Tabacum Fumar
Take a small bottle (like small water or soda bottle)

Fill ¾ with rain or filtered water

Light your favourite cigarette

Inhale

Exhale INTO THE BOTTLE

Repeat until the cigarette is finished

Shake the bottle really well

Pour out 9/10ths of the contents of the bottle

Re-fill

Shake well

Repeat the pour out 9/10ths and refill. 5 more times.

You now have a bottle of 6X (roughly) tobacco smoke.
SIP on bottle whenever you want to light up.
(from Eizayaga via Julian Winston – Minutus Homoeopathic online group. minutus@yahoogroups.com 20/9/04)
Also remember when you are craving a cigarette

Take 5-10 deep long slow breaths through pursed lips

Even out your fingers up to your lips when you do it

Craving will often pass by time you’ve finished the breaths

As you begin to crave a cigarette you begin to breathe more and more shallowly and when one lights a cigarette up that first drag is often really big

and even though it has smoke with it – it is often the first decent breathe you have had for a while – so do the same just minus the cigarette
Keep your hands occupied – this is one aspect of smoking that is hard to deal with as you are used to having something in your hands - Chupa chup (lolly-pop) plastic sticks are good for this - small and unobtrusive hollow therefore can be sucked through, chewed on, played with etc and fit in a pocket.
Remember don’t be too hard on yourself.

It virtually always takes more than one try to give up.

Just give up again and don’t berate yourself.

Remember nicotine is one of the hardest drugs to give up and every minute, hour or day that you make it through without reverting is worth congratulating yourself for.
Put aside the money you would have spent on cigarettes in cash somewhere you can see it – then treat yourself to something special paid for by the money that you have saved by giving up smoking and tell yourself aloud

“I have/am doing this because I gave up smoking”

and pat yourself on the back
GOOD LUCK
