Everyone knows about the risks and diseases associated with smoking, of which there are many, including: lung cancer, cardiovascular disease, emphysema, a shorter life expectancy and increased risk of heart attacks and stroke, to name a few. Smoking also claims around 114,000 lives in the UK each year (netdoctor.co.uk, February 2005), equivalent to over 300 deaths a day. For many people, smoking is seen as an addiction that they just can't overcome, and for this reason and many others, the decision to quit is far from a casual one.Stop Smoking For Dummies is the easiest way to stop smoking - and stay stopped! This handy, pocket-sized guide offers you a straightforward, practical plan to help you stop smoking, and walks you through every stage of the quitting process - from stubbing out your last cigarette, to finding a support group and avoiding relapse. Stop Smoking For Dummies also features information on hypnotherapy, cognitive behavioural therapy and neuro-linguistic programming, so you can stay motivated and feel confident that you're getting the best support possible. Author Biography: Sally Lewis is a health and lifestyle consultant. Dr David Brizer has been treating and writing about smoking for over 20 years.
