Quitting Smoking Methods. There are almost as many methods of how to quit smoking as there are people who actually want to quit. Once you add up the number of people who want the smoker to quit - read: every non-smoking relative, lover, or present co-worker who treat the smell of smoke the way ancient Israelites treated lepers - the number reaches ridiculous proportions. Consequently most of the methods used to get smokers on the path towards a smoke-free life are essentially useless. People are looking for many methods or the easiest way to quit smoking. The thing is, there is no smoking gun. One of the things that is asked often is how to quit smoking with hypnosis. That is a great question, and it has alot to do with the power of suggestion. You can learn how if you put in the effort.
