As part of our guest blogging sessions for 2015, we invited Helen Basinger, the author of ‘Quit Smoking Now and Forever, Conquering the Nicotine Demon‘ to offer her pointers on how to beat addiction in 2015. Here she is and a big thank you to Helen for being the first guest blogger! If you would like to submit an article to the Clinic’s website please add a comment below, thanks.

Happy New Year and thanks to Dr Ashley and the Clinic for the opportunity to write a little blog. I know you may not smoke yourself but hopefully the following article can help people you love. Certainly, if quitting smoking is always your New Year’s resolution then you need to read on.
I am a hypnosis, Tapping and smoking cessation expert who has helped hundreds of people quit, and sadly it’s not as easy as just saying, “I’m quitting.” Just hoping all will be well on the morning of January 1st is not going to be enough. Did it work, or are you still smoking? You need a plan. A really good plan.
Cigarette manufacturers have added almost 600 things to tobacco to keep you addicted. Not the least of which is ammonia which means you are literally freebasing nicotine like crack! As this nicotine wears off it makes you feel nervous and miserable and having another cigarette then seems like the only solution.
It’s not though. There are many things you can do; from hypnosis to yogic breathing, herbs, patches, vitamins, homeopathic medicine and of course acupuncture.
If you really want to be smoke free in 2015 you may like to buy my book “Quit Smoking Now and Forever! – Releasing the nicotine demon”. Not just a book, it also gives you access to a hypnosis session online, 3 Tapping session videos and 7 powerful audio visualizations. This all combines to support you in really quitting. It’s worth a look if you really want to quit.

The clinic of alternative medicine also offers acupuncture for quitting smoking and I am sure Dr Ashley will be very willing to help!
Best wishes for 2015.
Helen
