Hi Future Non smoker
The list for things that cigarettes makes better does not exist. The list of things that aren’t affected by smoking is a very short one, and apart from the brief hit of dopamine you get from a smoke, I can’t actually think of anything else to add to that list.
Physical Cost
And even the feel good dopamine gets over shadowed by the stress hormones that follow. There is a simple way to understand how smoking makes everything physically worse. Inside every artery in your body is a lining called the endothelium?
Every time you smoke a cigarette it disrupts the endothelium for up to four hours. This means that important energy creating and anti-oxidant chemicals such as nitric oxide don’t get produced in the proper amounts.
So every artery covers 100% of blood flow delivering nutrients to every cell in your body, so simply put, the toxins from a cigarette go everywhere and affect everything.
Emotional Cost.
It’s hard to measure the emotional cost of smoking, but the simple bio-chemical fact is that every cigarette causes you to create the stress hormone cortisol. The right amount of cortisol gives you energy, but too much depletes your energy, causes physical pain and can contribute to anxiety and depression.
Cigarettes offer only brief period of relaxation before the stress kicks in. But even worse is that by hiding your stress behind cigarettes you don’t face your stress and it just builds up and makes you sick.
Financial Cost
Smoking makes your financial situation worse. I know that many clients tell me that the money doesn’t matter, but there are fooling themselves. After all who would honestly prefer to waste thousands of dollars every year on tobacco when that same money could be spent on anything else.
In fact you would be way better off just piling up thousands of dollars each year and setting it on fire. As long as you don’t stand close enough to inhale the fumes you would be way ahead compared to sucking in all of that toxic smoke.
Of course you could have a holiday, support your family or give it to charity. Anything but wasting it on cigarettes.
Social Cost
I wonder how many hours of family time you miss every year, how many times you have to leave a restaurant or social function to smoke. Only you would know how much smoking has cost you, do you really want that to continue.
So just book your advanced hypnosis session now and take back your life.
