In my days of worse cigarette smoking (not even thinking on quitting to smoke). I have once collected cigarette packs of a Marlboro, they have these limited edition of design for their packs, the design was cool and macho. I don't remember what year was that ( I still have them kept in my drawer ), I bet they got a good sale and profit for that and additional death rate!.
I also once saw an AD on a cigarette pack which is anti-smoking AD. It is not a regular all text warning AD (that is almost invisible to read) but a huge horrible image of a smoking related disease, it is really creepy! Since it is an imported pack, I think that some countries has a regulation on cigarette packages. I personally think this works! Philippines don't have this kind of awareness, Hell! even a seven year old kid can buy a cigarette these days.
Searching the web, I viewed some of these type of cigarette packages. some are funny but majority of it is really gruesome! All are image of cigarette related disease to the max! I think it depends on the implementing country on how gruesome it can be. I've posted some on my last post, I'll be posting other images after I have them collected. It will really make you wanna Quit Smoking!

Heart of a cigarette
Quitting or stop of cigarette smoking really do well once your in a brink of dying. the worst case is that smoking is the the reason. there are many side effects, except for the relaxation purpose, may this relax us more (LOL!)
Popular knowledge amongst us is that cigarette smoking affects the heart. To make it more clear the medical term used in any heart problem is cardiovascular disease. Cardiovascular disease is defined as diseases and injuries of the heart (any), the blood vessels of the heart, and the system of blood vessels (veins and arteries) throughout the body and within the brain.
The major factor on cardio diseases is that the supply of nutrients and oxygen is being limited or block, for a cigarette smoker, oxygen which is necessary in the circulation is being replace by carbon dioxide and other gases in every cigarette smoke inhalation. We don't need to be a doctor to visualize this, but once it lacks supply of oxygen our heart will then have produce oxygen to compensate the loss, resulting to a faster heart rate.
Also nicotine and other chemicals tends to deposit on the blood vessel and arteries which limits the supply of blood to the heart and a possible clogging. We all know the result of this, a stroke or heart attack.
how's that for a motivation!
One thing is sure and that is cigarette smoking is a risk factor in having a cardiovascular disease. We love our heart so lets Quit Smoking Cigarettes, it has a far greater benefit to all. KILL SMOKING!

Opinions against quit smoking by hypnosis
Smoking is one of the worst habits one may have, being addicted to nicotine is pretty much similar to being addicted to cocaine or heroine. Though many medical and scientific associations have underlined the similitudes between tobacco and cocaine no decisive steps have been made. There are many people eager to try such special methods especially if they are easy to implement. Alternative therapy has come up with quit smoking by hypnosis solutions. To quit smoking by hypnosis is a recent technique very contested by scientists as most doctors and scientists don't accept the idea of influencing the subconscious. Though quit smoking by hypnosis solutions are controversial there are some people that say they feel better, so based on their declarations this new quit smoking by hypnosis treatment gains more and more favorable opinions.
If you run a simple search you will find a multitude of quit smoking by hypnosis solutions over the Internet. Such quit smoking by hypnosis treatments contain a simple mp3 file that must be recorded on a CD or DVD and played several times. There are many people that buy them and say they feel better. However, at the exact opposite pole, there ore others who say they'd rather go to an exorcist than turn to quit smoking by hypnosis. The products are advertised as the extraordinary quit smoking by hypnosis mp3s. Maybe you've seen some shows where people get hypnotized and bark like a dog or any other animal. Those things are real, so be careful to what you listen, I have nothing against those who appeal to such drastic solutions I just say that they don't know to what they expose themselves.
Those who turn to quit smoking by hypnosis usually have tried other untested methods like yoga or any other alternative therapies, it is true that there is a small percentage of people that have an inclination to mysticism but before contacting some therapists that use quit smoking by hypnosis techniques try to find out the side effects of such a quit smoking by hypnosis treatment. The truth that any medic or scientist can confirm is that we know little or nothing at all about mysticism and what it involves.

However, if you come to work with a true professional, quit smoking by hypnosis may work as it is said to eliminate the desire to smoke from the most inner levels of the subconscious.

Quit smoking - Hypnosis?
Its not a secret that smoking is one of the biggest problems that troubles our modern society as millions people die every year from a smoking caused illness. Free stop smoking hypnosis is one of the most modern methods to fight nicotine. The cause of smoking is different for each individual as there is a variety of emotional and psychological factors involved. A personal problem can make one start smoking just like a very stressful life style. The free stop smoking hypnosis helps you from inside your own mind. If the smoking causes are within each individual doctors say that the cure is also there. So this is why any quit–smoking program comes with a lot of counseling for helping one overcome all the imminent difficulties. Some people are ready to try new free stop smoking hypnosis techniques and are pleased with the results. Let's see the pros and cons of free stop smoking hypnosis methods. This might be for you to quit smoking!
The problem with free stop smoking hypnosis treatments is that you don't really know what it really goes on during the procedure. Basically during free stop smoking hypnosis sessions the nicotine addiction should be eliminated from your subconscious. Maybe you've seen shows where a person is hypnotized and then makes some foolish things, all those happenings are real. About the method, yes, it can be useful, because the mind can simply be programmed to hate cigarettes but I wouldn't trust anyone to play with my mind. Theoretically free stop smoking hypnosis can be successfully applied to some patients and if you surf the Internet for opinions you will find a lot of happy stories as well as some complaints against this method. Presently a large number of free stop smoking hypnosis mp3s exist on various sites.
As I see it the only advantage to stop smoking hypnosis method over the classical treatments is that there are no side effects as those reported in the case of some nicotine-based substitutes. As a common disadvantage of the free stop smoking hypnosis mp3 files that can be found on the Internet is that you'll have to waste a lot of time listening to them. Usually about 6 hours of listening are needed every week so if you have this time to spend, the free stop smoking hypnosis might be the solution for you. However, it would be best to turn to a professional in the field, even if you have to pay for the procedure. Such organized non-free stop smoking hypnosis therapy shows results sooner than the free variants available on the Internet.
This might work for some, as long as this helps anyone who wants to quit smoking can give hypnosis a shot!
