From the Publisher

As a veteran hypnotist, Todd Goodwin has seen what works and what doesn't work. In "Break the Chains of Smoking," you won't read the same old story that is offered on medical websites or in smoking cessation support materials. Instead, you will discover powerful insights, both compelling and controversial, that are distilled from his years of direct work with clients and are supported by clinical research. Filled with unconventional wisdom, this clear and concise book strongly questions the outdated, biochemical view of nicotine addiction and smoking cessation that has largely failed smokers for decades. Todd Goodwin's candid and bold exploration of the mentality of the smoker and the mind-body nature of the smoking habit is a must-read for anyone who is serious about quitting and wants an advocate who is both tough and supportive.
