Health and Fitness ? Thoughts Of Cigarettes Three Months After ...

There is a third-month phenomenon reported by some smokers. Something like three months after your last cigarette, you may be feeling that you are over them, but there is another thought that may creep in. This really horrible thought of ?wouldn?t it be nice just to have one cigarette? may crop up every now and then. You may have gone through hell and back in those first two weeks, and now you are finally over any withdrawal feelings and finally thought you were safe. And all of a sudden, you may be getting these ?wouldn?t it be nice? thoughts. It must be so disturbing!

You know deep down inside that you do not actually want a cigarette. But these thoughts keep cropping up. Then there are the justification thoughts that go along with them; thoughts of ?well, I have done so well, I deserve a cigarette as a reward?. Of course, you will not be tempted to go through all that all over again, but it is so annoying, and threatening, to get these thoughts. You are determined, however, not to give in, and that is the right mindset. No matter what thoughts you get, they are just thoughts. They will soon pass. It is just your mind playing tricks on you. You do not have to act upon them. After all, if you did act upon them, that cigarette would taste disgusting and you would feel very dizzy. But you know that it would be the start of another slippery slope that you have just worked so hard to climb out of. You certainly do not need all that hassle in your life again.

There is another way of looking at this. Whenever you get a thought that calls you towards the cigarettes, you can actively release the emotion behind that thought. Then the thought can go away much faster, and you do not have to wait for it to pass. There is a very easy self-acupressure method that can release that thought, craving, desire, or whatever you want to call it. And this method can do so literally in minutes. It is called Emotional Freedom Techniques, or EFT for short. It does not cost you anything unless you wish to learn it from a practitioner or attend a workshop. You can download simple instructions for this method from many an online source and get using it in the next hour. How you learn it is your preference, but what I am trying to say that it is available, and you do not have to suffer these intrusive thoughts.
