How to Quit Smoking in One Easy Step

October 21st, 2008 · Healthy Body

By a 30+ year smoker

Step 1 Make the Decision to Stop Smoking

If you do this 1 thing, your transition to a human being that has more control of their mind, smells 1000 times better, feels better and even starts to look better; will be a walk in the park. Everything after this decision will be easily accomplished. I Promise.

Just for entertainment purposes I decided to monitor, analyze and record all the sensations, bodily reactions and thoughts as I transitioned into a Non Smoker.

Before I start with my story, I would like to make a couple of points about smoking and it’s true hold on you.

1st Yes there is a reaction from the body if you quit smoking. This is technically called a “Withdrawal of an Addiction” However, regardless of what the scientist say or promote this reaction is not very strong, as a matter of fact it is extremely weak.

That which is not weak is the power of the subconscious mind and it’s ability to resist change.

You have been going through all the motions of smoking so long, your mind has created an easy program which performs each action without any thought or effort. Completely automatic.

Left on it’s own, our subconscious mind will always revert to these default programs. One tingle in the brain from low nicotine and the program is set into motion.

The hand reaches to the pocket, grasps the pack, does that little flair of a flip you practiced when you thought smoking was cool, insert the cig into the lip (of course hanging just right with plenty of movement control of the cig (yeah, you know what I mean)), reaches for the lighter again bringing that practiced flair to lighting the fire which allows you to inhale the wonderful…

Breath of Toxic Crap

That taste like -

Well taste Terrible

This program of the mind is the reason most find it hard to quit, not the nicotine.


All it Takes is your Decision

If you wish to enrich the nicotine supplement crowd for developing a disgusting tasting gum then be my guest but please realize, its the rest of their system that will possibly help you. I will tell you that, after many tries with them, I finally came up with my own method that worked great.

The nicotine withdrawal is a piece of cake – Yes you heard right, that jittery anxiety that you felt every time you try to quit is not the nicotine or I should say is not just the nicotine.

That is the power of your subconscious mind amplifying the weak nicotine withdrawal.

Your subconscious mind will control every aspect of your life if you let it and It seems to hate changing any of the programs it has created. As far as change is concerned, your subconscious mind is very lazy. Thankfully, if you tell it to change and are firm and persistent in training, it will change without harming you. Unfortunately it took me 30 years to realize this.

This point brings us back to the One Step that will make you a Non Smoker

The Decision to Stop Smoking or more Correct

The Decision to eliminate the current subconscious mind

program which keeps you smelling terrible.

(This is the real reason everyone wants you to quit)

Now on to My Story – I hope you find something that will help you.



January 9th 2008

I actually decided last night to stop smoking. I figured that It would be easier to begin with the added benefit of 8 hours less nicotine. We’ll see if that was a smart decision or not.

The only difference I can tell this time, is that I did not say or even think I was trying – In my effort to become a little more enlightened in my old age, I have learned that you can not fool your subconscious mind. Trying leaves way too much room for failure.

This time I made the decision – This leaves no room for doubt – It is actually amazing the amount of power a firm decision gives you.

So you’ll know, I have been awake this morning for about 1 hr. I have previously been working on not smoking first thing in the morning, so that has not been a big deal yet, although it is about that time.

Sitting here writing has seemed to help in making me forget wanting a smoke. This exercise might come back to haunt me in that I am deliberately trying to think about smoking. I am deliberately sitting here trying to describe any feeling in my body because I am no longer putting cigarette smoke into it.

The hardest thing I am going through is trying to figure out how to describe the feelings, yes I am starting to feel something.

Ok It feels like my brain is getting lighter with a slight tingling sensation. I keep getting those little thoughts pop into the head; either it’s time to light up or the more subtle action of automatically bringing the hand up to the pocket for the pack.

Not really unpleasant. I am sitting here just saying no to these thoughts and so far they just say ok and float away – like a puff of smoke .

Here it comes – the sensation of the brain feeling lighter and tingling is constant but there seems to be something making it pulse stronger. It is actually funny – I was sitting here trying not to think, allowing my body to relax and this pulse started to really grow. It started to feel like it was pumping up a thought – erg how to describe.

The thought “I want a smoke” “I want a smoke”– this feeling that Is really not a feeling, there is no pain or discomfort other than an insistent thought. I guess this is building of anxiety –

From previous tries at quitting, I always gave into this thought because I didn’t know to just say no. Upon further thought this is the subconscious mind taking over and saying “it is time to run program and I’m not going to do anything else till we do”.

Run program run program need smoke run program need smoke run program need smoke

Shut up — OK

That was easy. Should of done it sooner – now I know.

Can you tell there is a little battle going on in my head right now. A little tip – If you can quit when you have the ability to be alone and don’t have responsibilities to take care of; it is easier to keep your mind on this reprogramming. I am finding that It is not hard but it is constant.

The subconscious mind is a persistent little devil when it throws it’s tantrums.

This is actually a great insight – Tell your subconscious mind what to do and it obeys ( it might continue to try, but each time it obeys)– Don’t tell it what to do and it tells me what to do.

Very interesting – I always thought me and my mind were all one – together – inseparably – I finally see there is more to me than I realize.

All those times I thought, “Oh that’s just the way I am” or I can’t help it “that’s the way I am”

Those times were a crock – I am who I want to be. I can control every aspect of my life.

Oops that can be a double edge sword – No Excuses

Sorry for the rambling – Hey I’m going through an ordeal here. (-:

Back to the addiction sensations.

Deep thoughts keep the mind off smoking – makes the mind forget I guess – This supports my theory that It is not the nicotine that makes quitting hard.

2hrs

That sensation in the brain is getting stronger and the thoughts of wanting a smoke are more frequent. Deep breaths are helping.

  • An Inspiration – Deep breaths create that tingling sensation all over – This is the same sensation I get from a smoke. Which means that smoking is a rip off – That sensation that you always say you get from a smoke – all you gotta do is breathe deep. That calming of the nerves you always claim you get from a smoke – again just the deep breaths.


    If that Is not enough the deep breathing gives you many times stronger sensations without the pain in the arse things like shortness of breath.


    Conclusion Smoking is a Rip off – I want all my money back


    Let’s see that’s 10 years at a pack a day – average price for this decade say $2.90

    3650 packs at 2.90 = $10.585 ouch

    10 years at 2.40 =$$8760

    10 years at 1.75 =$6387.5

    That’s $25,732.50 All I can say is DAMN



That Backfired – Now I’m depressed and need a smoke.



Deep Breaths – That’s Pleasant



Release the past



Ok as long as I keep with the deep breaths when the ole subbie mind gets snippy – things are going smoothly. This is not that hard. All those high anxiety episodes I remember, are just not there. It is amazing the power of determination.

The biggest aggravation is that it just keeps popping up. I’m ready for you to learn already but I got patience and determination. The worst are the times I catch myself totally without thought getting ready to go get smokes. I know if there were any here, one would have been lit without my even knowing. Sneaky little devil that subconscious mind.

4hrs

I haven’t written anything in a while because there is nothing new to say. If I come up with any more deep inspiration I’ll come back but otherwise — same ole thing.

This is what they call mental addiction…

Being that I can analyze myself and gauge the exact degree of the symptoms

I say not much addiction to it – Just a stupid Habit I need to alter.

All I need to do to break the habit is to say no every time it tries to exert itself

Not That Hard

Besides with deep breaths…

Oh I didn’t describe the deep breaths did I..

Quick intake of as much air as you can – hold for the count of 3 – repeat 6 times.

Better than a smoke every time – There’s nothing to miss except the smell.

Amazing

As a matter of fact this is a great idea for everyone to do anytime they need a good buzz.

This whole thing is like training a puppy – you just have to keep at it till it learns. — hey that’s an idea, roll up a newspaper and whap myself on the nose if the urge gets too strong.

Yeehaaa

First strong physical reaction – Don’t know what it is but it felt like an energy beam just raced out of my eyes. No pain – Just a split second whooop.

That was almost fun – What’s going to happen next.

Haven’t mentioned yet, been drinking a lot of water. My throat is constantly dry – the water feels like it is washing away the accumulated gunk – leaves similar sensation to deep breathing.

Also been getting the munchies – glad I prepared with fruit and nuts.

If anyone decides to quit – make sure you stock up on healthy munchies. You don’t want to gain weight – And with fresh fruits, veggies and nuts you can eat all you like and only become healthier.

16 hrs

Well when the big energy burst happened I thought I was in for something. What a dud. Only happened the once and that lost it charm quickly. Oh back to just living. Sensations are about the same – still well within ability to handle. I’m going to bed

40 hrs

Day 2 was not much different. Nagging thoughts keep popping up but easily told to scram.

Day 5

Been same ole each day with a slight decrease in frequency.

Day 10

Still constant thoughts but much easier and quicker to delete. I am starting to smell – Uh I mean I am starting to be able to smell things more. And I’ve been told that I am starting to not smell as bad. He he

Day 30

I got this dog trained – Those pesky thoughts are mostly few and far between. There still is a challenge in those times of stress, anxiety and fatigue but mostly things are good.

Back to today Oct 21 2008

Been 10 months — Not really an issue but there are times – easily handled though.

Over all I can tell you that quitting is much easier than anticipated. There are trying times the first few days when you have to use your determination but it is not that hard.

The only step that is totally and completely required to make it this easy is that 1st One

Decide to STOP NOW

If you have times when you don’t think you can control that subconscious mind try this

Find an ashtray with a few butts in it. Sprinkle a little water on it and let it sit for 1 min.

Stick you nose within two inches and inhale. That is why you quit – You are ready to not smell like that all the time. Your clothes, you car, your hair and your breath.

That ought to cure anyone. This also works great for those wanting to make the decision but haven’t gotten the grumbas to do it yet.

I hope this helps.

West Nile Virus – The Alternative Solution

October 20th, 2008 · Healthy Body

How many are really effected



According to the CDC there were 3630 reported cases of West Nile Virus in the US for 2007. Of these, 1217 cases of West Nile encephalitis and West Nile meningitis were reported with 124 deaths.


The CDC’s primary advise for combating these numbers is to reduce mosquito bites first and then it goes on to advocate mosquito population control both on the individual level and governmental level. This is a common sense approach which will help but there seems to be two fundamental flaws in the overall outlook.

Deet’s Health Risks


The first flaw is the method of reducing the number of bites being promoted. That is the use of Deet repellents which they claim to be completely safe when used as directed.


The real truth is that few really know how to use it properly and there is the usual controversy on whether deet will cause long term health complications. It is known that deet enters the body thru the skin with larger amounts being ingested from longer exposure, when used with alcohol and when used in sunscreen combinations. A great site for more info is the Children’s Health Environmental Coalition Website.


Another factor in the large scale use of deet is the environmental impact which is becoming huge. Not only is deet toxic to some cold water fish it is also toxic to some fresh water zoo-plankton which is a major food source for other fish. It is also very slow to breakdown in the environment bringing a greater possibility of accumulating.


Chemical Risk to All verses Virus Risk to A Few


The second flaw with deet is that we are exposing large numbers of people and the environment to a chemical known to be harmful, to prevent a disease which only affects a very small percentage of the population. This is a common form of madness which seems to be prevalent in today’s society.


No where on the CDC website can it be found to say the best defense to this and every disease is to provide your body with a healthy immune system thus allowing it to heal itself.


This is especially true for the group with the highest risk of acquiring West Nile Virus. According to the CDC “most of the deaths due to WNV during 2002 were among people over 50 years old. Half of those deaths were among people over 77 years old”. It seems better to promote improving immune health of everyone especially the elderly than to promote coating ourselves with a toxic chemical.


The most important factor in providing healthier immune systems is to provide the body with all the live whole food nutrient compounds and probiotics it needs. Doing this along with eliminating as many of the thousands of other chemicals from contact and exercising is all that is usually needed for this healthier immune system.


For most people in today’s society the best place to get these live whole food nutrients and probiotics is with a natural product. This product should be processed by using the least amount of heat possible thereby maintaining the highest nutrient compounds. The best such live whole food nutrient product is “The Feast“. I like it so much I joined the company.


When we start to focus on being healthy, many of the diseases like West Nile Virus will lose it’s punch and the numbers of those affected will come down. This will have the added effect of having less chemicals being produced which were used for bite prevention and synthetic drug treatments.


Even though there is a better way to prevent West Nile Virus, there is still the pesky problem of mosquitoes and their little telltale itchy welts. They are still unpleasant and a desire to repel them is still strong. Thankfully there is good news here.


There are alternatives to deet that are effective but are required to be applied more often. The simple truth is we don’t have the right to harm the environment with harmful chemicals just to save some time applying more often.


Spending a little more time is such a little thing to help your health and the environment plusmany of the alternative repellents have ingredients which will sooth and help heal the bites from the squitters which do get in. Look for certified organic bug sprays and use all you need. Another added benefit will be the smell, you won’t be so slow to get out and enjoy the outdoors. Being outside and being active will also help keep you stronger and healthier so get out there and enjoy.

E. Coli – Salmonella – Are you Next?

September 14th, 2008 · Healthy Body, Uri International

 Food borne illness of the Month.

 

All through time humans have been faced with outbreaks of illnesses caused by food borne bacteria. In early civilizations it was believed to be the work of gods, demons or other supernatural beings. As knowledge evolved the real culprits were discovered and the search for ways of eliminating the little buggers has continued to progress.

 

This search for new and better ways to kill these bacteria is the total focus currently being promoted by both the mainstream conventional health care industry and government bodies such as our US CDC or Center for Disease Control.

 

The most recent weapon brought to the arsenal has been the approval of the use of Irradiation for our foods, which is very controversial. The “anti crowd” seems to think there will be long term health effects when this method becomes a standard. The “for crowd” uses the argument that there is not enough evidence of these health concerns or that “in the amounts being used the risks are acceptable.”

 

Either one of the “for” arguments are a little scary if proven wrong, meaning that a lot of people will have had their health negatively affected. This can be especially ironic in that everyone becomes exposed to the risks so that a very small segment might be less susceptible to the original bacteria.

 

This seems to be the same with irradiation and all of the synthetic chemical methods used as antibacterials, both on our food and in our lives in general. We are not only killing those few harmful bacteria, we are also wiping out all of the beneficial ones which we must have to survive. Not to mention the fact that many of these beneficial bacteria are our first and strongest defense for the harmful variety in the first place.

 

This knowledge is not new nor is it alternative thinking, so it is a puzzle why this “wipe out the bugs” mentality reigns supreme. This is an answer I do not have, but what I have found is that there is something better and more effective in preventing these food borne illnesses.

 

You have to keep it a secret though. So don’t tell anyone because if you do, everyone will want to do it and stay healthy…

 

There are several things which you must do to make sure you or your family are not the ones who become ill from food borne bugs..

 

1st – Cleanliness.

 

There is big difference between cleanliness and chemical sterilization which is actually an oxymoron. While you can kill most living organisms on any surface with chemical cleaners you are leaving behind chemical residues which most often can cause long term problems worse than the bacteria. While technically sterile these chemical residues are still a threat to your health.

 

Warm water, an organic soap and a little good ole elbow grease will wash away a large portion of any bacteria which are present. This will keep bacterial colonies from becoming too strong and allow your body to handle them with relative ease as long as the next steps are taken. We have learned that there is a need to keep ourselves and our homes clean and free of clutter especially of the organic type (such as garbage, food scraps etc.). As stated this will keep the harmful organism from gaining enough strength to overcome our defenses. As far as cleanliness this is all that is required. Sterilization is not a good idea especially if the process leaves chemical residues.

 

2nd – Provide your body with adequate nutritional compounds-

 

A quick question can easily show the shear power of this little step….

 

Have you ever had a doctor not say that diet is important to help you overcome any health issue? Every doctor’s visit, every health pamphlet, every nutritionist and every government health publication mentions diet as an important factor in regaining or maintaining your health.

 

So why don’t we listen?

 

We all know this, so get with it and live it.

 

The simple fact of nutrition is that you need a majority of your diet to be fruits, vegetables, nuts, sprouts and legumes. And as much as possible should be eaten raw. Raw is the natural way our bodies recognize foods and are able to utilize their nutritional compounds most efficiently. Besides a whole lot of the most nutritious foods are really delicious when eaten raw. Reprogram your brain to think of fresh raw fruits and veggies with every meal and when you want a snack.

 

And these raw foods should be raised organically not only for better nutritional content but also to eliminate so many of the chemicals present in conventional food. This is discussed more here.

 

Even though we know that we should be eating a healthy diet many of us are not. With our fast paced lives it is difficult to take the time and effort to find and prepare high quality produce. So many times we resort to those quick processed products they call food.

 

Because of the low nutritional quality of so much of our foods we are simply not getting enough of those critical nutrients. On top of this so many of the chemicals in our food and in everything we come in contact with all day, every day are destroying those beneficial bacterial colonies we so desperately need to keep us safe.

 

Unless our diet is full of fresh foods and we eliminate as many harmful chemicals in our lives, we need to supplement both natural whole food nutrition and probiotics (or beneficial bacteria). These supplements should not be chemically produced or isolated in any way. They should be produced from whole foods with all the nutrient compounds intact. The best available is “The Feast” by Uri International.

 

3rd – Reduce the chemical madness. It is amazing just how much and how many chemicals come into contact with our bodies. There is no time of the day when this contact is not taking place even when you are sleeping. Most standard mattresses and bedding will off gas chemicals for years and if you use regular laundry detergent you add more chemicals each time you wash.

 

Other sources of chemicals are municipal water systems, processed foods, conventional produce, cleaning supplies, food storage containers and all your personal care products (shampoo, lotions, make-up, etc.).

 

When you see the enormity of the amounts of chemicals we are in contact with, the mantra of “It is safe at theses low doses” kind of loses it believability. Each one is taxing your immune system just a little bit and when all of these little bits add up we get a major health crisis.

 

It is critical to cut down your exposure to as many of these as possible and thankfully there are companies willing to learn how to produce our products more naturally.

 

4th – Enjoy a healthier life

 

That’s it – That’s all it takes to protect yourself and your family from all those bugs out there wanting to make you sick. You have provided your body all the nutrients it needs and you have eliminated as much day to day stress on your immune system freeing it to keep you safe from the bigger hazards of life, so that you can enjoy life.

The Great Synthetic Vitamin Hoax

June 14th, 2008 · Healthy Body, Uri International

From the Real Nutrition News Special 2008 Vol1

Synthetic Vitamin HoaxBecause it’s hard to eat 5 to 9 servings of fruits and vegetables every day, many people think they can get vitamins, minerals and antioxidants they need from isolated synthetic supplements.

And Americans are buying synthetic supplements in droves — to the tune of $20 billion a year.

But don’t be fooled!

Research shows that synthetic vitamins are 50-70% less biologically active than natural vitamins. (1)

The fact is, there are literally thousands of naturally occurring nutrients in fresh fruits, vegetables, berries, greens, seeds, nuts and sprouts that you simply cannot get from synthetic, isolated vitamin supplements.

Synthetic, isolated vitamins and inorganic mineral supplements don’t even come close to giving you the REAL whole food-based nutrition you can get in The Feast™

The Origin of The Feast

June 10th, 2008 · Healthy Body, Uri International

From Real Nutrition News Special 2008 Issue Vol 1

by David Uri Lebaron, Pioneer and innovator of live, whole food based nutrition.

“Introducing the breakthrough technology
that locks in the REAL nutritional value of
fresh organic fruits and vegetables—guaranteed!”

The origin of The Feast™ begins back in the late 1970’s when my family began a small herb harvesting business in the southwestern desert regions of the United States.

When I was seven years old, I began helping in the family business by harvesting wild herbs…and at that time, my lifelong interest in nutrition was sparked.

The business flourished, and soon we were providing wildcrafted herb powders to some of the biggest nutritional companies in America.

In the mid 1980’s, we began looking for a superior way to preserve the nutritional integrity of whole foods in order to provide a much higher form of quality nutrients than found in typical nutritional supplements.

During this time, we began developing a proprietary process for drying live whole foods and fresh raw juices into powder. We began with cereal grasses and herbs.

We discovered that the best way to preserve the nutritional integrity of these grasses and herbs was to dry them using low heat and quickly turn them into powder in seconds at very low temperatures.

As our processing technology evolved and continually improved, we then turned to processing organic and naturally grown fruits and vegetables.

I knew that if I could make this drying process work for fresh, organic produce, I would be on to something big. The quality of the nutrient dense products resulting from our proprietary process was far superior to anything produced by other nutritional supplement processing techniques. We realized that our proprietary process could revolutionize how we take, absorb and benefit from vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and phytonutrients naturally found abundantly in organic produce.

It took years for me to perfect it, but now I’m exited to tell you all about…

…the proprietary InstaFresh™ Drying Process.

Here’s the new secret behind REAL whole food based nutrition.

Where I live, I’m surrounded by some of the most fertile, mineral rich farmland in America.

Yet even for me, it’s a challenge to find the best organic and naturally grown fruits and vegetables:
The sweetest corn this side of heaven…lip-smacking tomatoes like your grandmother used to grow…the peaches that melt in your mouth…and green beans so fresh they pop when you snap them and taste even better than you remember.

If I have to work at consuming my 5-9 servings of organic or naturally grown fruits and vegetables each day–and enjoy all the extra benefits they give me–then I know it’s even harder for you!

But that’s what The Feast™ is all about!

Now, you can get the quality, quantity, variety, integrity and value of delicious organic and naturally grown fruits and vegetables from the purest sources possible–all without chopping, peeling, cooking or juicing or relying on yucky “green” drinks of fistfuls of pills.

The secret to The Feast™ is our proprietary InstaFresh™ Low-Temperature Drying Process, which:

  1. Takes newly harvested organic and naturally grown fruits, vegetables, greens, berries, nuts, seeds and sprouts…
  2. Makes them into whole food purees and freshly-pressed 34° F liquid juice…
  3. Turns that juice into a concentrated powder within 30 seconds with temperatures that average 65° F and never exceed 100° F (heat over 100° kills most nutrients and enzymes)…
  4. All in a timely manner to ensure REAL whole food nutrition.

It all starts with the Quality Of Ingredients.

The Feast™ provides you with a unique “certified organic” or naturally grown blend of fruits, vegetables, greens, berries, seeds, nuts and sprouts that are all free of chemical pesticides and other hazardous and toxic products.

Why is this important?

Because organic foods are more nutritious than conventional foods. In the biggest and most extensive scientific study done to date on organic foods, it was shown that organic potatoes, tomatoes, wheat, cabbage, onions and lettuce had between 20-40 percent more nutrients than non-organic foods. (15)

The Journal of Alternative and Complimentary Medicine reports that organic crops contain significantly more iron, vitamine C, magnesium and phosphorus and significantly less nitrates (a toxin) than conventional crops.(16)

In addition, www.organicconsumers.org reveals that organic foods have higher nutritional levels of health promoting antioxidants to keep you healthy.

The bottom line: The more organic fruits and vegetables you eat, the more nutrition you get. REAL whole food based nutrition.

Dangerous Ingredients secretly lurking in our foods

June 9th, 2008 · Healthy Body, Uri International

From Real Nutrition News Special 2008 Issue Vol 1

Here are examples of what is in our foods today–
unknown and unseen by the General Public…

  • Hormones, steroids, antibiotics found in animal products—
    Research shows these compounds can be absorbed by fruits and vegetables grown in soil treated with manure from animal fed antibiotics.
  • Toxins and pollutants from contaminated soil and water—
    These can stay in our environment years after they’ve been banned, such as DDT.
  • Pesticides, fertilizers and fumigants—
    These are unnatural compounds.
  • MSG (Monosodium Glutamate)—
    MSG is a neurotoxic flavor enhancer that’s hidden in many foods.
  • Partially Hydrogenated oil—
    Gives baked goods and snacks longer shelf life but contains high levels of trans fat.
  • High Fructose Corn Syrup—
    With a high glycemic index, it converts to fat more than any other sugar. Usually made with genetically modified corn and genetically modified enzymes.
  • Genes from bacteria, viruses, plants, animals and even humans inserted into plants like soybeans, corn, canola and cotton—
    Unlike traditional breeding, genetic engineering can create life forms that would normally never exist in nature.
  • Artificial Colors and Flavorings—
    Artificial colors are chemical compounds made mainly from coal-tar; artificial flavors are cheaply produced chemical mixtures that mimic natural flavors.
  • Artificial Sweeteners—
    Despite claims these are “safe” food additives, remember they are not natural. For example, aspartame is made up of three chemicals.
  • Benzoate Preservatives—
    These are phenolic compounds often added to food to preserve fats and prevent fats from becoming rancid; these preservatives produce low levels of hormones.

The result?

Food that’s been denatured, stripped of much of its nutritional value and integrity—

And food that could potentially cause health issues.

  • But with The Feast™ …
    You get REAL Nutrition.
    Pure, concentrated, unadulterated, Whole Live Food-based Nutrition.

The Feast - Safe Pure Real Nutrition
