Success stories from people in Kent
I smoked from age 15 to age 35 before quitting ….. (now 15 months since I have had a cigarette). Prior to this I had never managed to stop for longer than a day or two. …I personally know several people that have successfully stopped smoking Thank you very much
Can not believe this works. I have not even wanted a cigarette and definitely don’t feel like I’m missing out. To be honest I can’t believe I smoked in the first place!!! I’ve tried before to cut down / stop and never thought I would be able to do it. It’s incredible
I haven’t thought about smoking,I haven’t missed it and I know I will never smoke again.I have been smoking for 55 years and I have gone from half an ounce of tobacco every day to zero overnight. This is a totally independent and unbiased post.I am nothing to do with Alan Carrs’

What happens in a Seminar?
The live group seminar is by far the most effective way to use Allen Carr’s Easyway whether at a centre or online using Zoom via a computer, tablet or smartphone.
Watch our short video to see what you can expect from the seminar
Understanding why you smoke
The programme does not use any scare tactics or shocking images of the harm that smoking does. You know all about that already.
Instead we examine and correct the misconceptions that keep all smokers trapped. We don’t just look at the physical addiction but the mental aspect as well.
You may be surprised that the addiction is 1% physical and 99% mental.
This is the most important aspect of stopping smoking with Allen Carr’s Easyway – as long as we ‘get your head right’ the physical aspects of the addiction are actually incredibly mild.
We know at this point you will find this hard to believe but it only takes a few hours for us to show you how.
What is it that keeps you hooked?
Smokers believe that they get some sort of genuine pleasure or benefit from smoking.
That it helps them enjoy life, handle stress, relax, socialise and control their weight.
For this reason they fear that even if they do succeed in stopping they will be miserable and feel deprived for the rest of their lives.
In addition to that fear, smokers also fear the downsides of smoking; the health worries, the stigma, the cost, the slavery and although they work hard not to think about them they remain like a huge dark cloud at the back of a smoker’s mind.
These are the fears that keep smokers hooked.
The method removes your need and desire to smoke and removes the fears that keep you hooked.
Freedom
You will finish the seminar as a happy non-smoker without any need for useless aids or substitutes.
No need for nicotine gum, patches, lozenges, tabs, inhalators, nasal sprays or e-cigarettes!
The seminar removes any feeling of deprivation, the fear that you’ll feel that you’re missing out on something, leaving you in the right frame of mind to quit smoking and by following some simple instructions you will find that the physical withdrawal from nicotine is hardly noticeable.
You will not miss smoking!

Smoking and Vaping
I was a nicotine and cannabis addict for over 15 years. I had tried so many different methods, and always ended up feeling like a failure, almost pulling my hair out as to why it was so hard to set myself free from something that deep down I knew was dragging me down and eventually I didn’t
I was a nicotine and cannabis addict for over 15 years. I had tried so many different methods, and always ended up feeling like a failure, almost pulling my hair out as to why it was so hard to set myself free from something that deep down I knew was dragging me down and eventually I didn’t even enjoy, or do anything for me (but yet I was compelled to smoke)
And then I found Easyway and as its name implies setting myself free was so easy! There were no physical withdrawal symptoms or pangs (like my previous attempts) no need for self control, no feelings of sacrifice, no fear of how I’d handle life without my ‘crutch’, and no feelings of deprivation around other smokers.
Moreover the method does not involve any scare tactics or lectures on the health risks or the down sides of smoking – rather it educates you on how addiction works and like magic at then end of the programme I had no desire or reason to smoke.
The team at easy way are all so supportive and kind, there’s no judgement or blame or making you feel bad or shamed.
As a former smoker, to all smokers out there please give this a try, there’s honestly nothing to loose (apart from maybe a few hours but in those hours you can smoke! And they will literally give you your money back if it doesn’t work for you) and so much to gain.
Ask yourself if there was a button you could push to go back to being a non smoker without any sacrifice or hardship, or a void in your life would you?
If the answer is yes then this is exactly what easyway did for me.
Wow wow wow!
The staff in the office were also great and offered words of encouragement.
But Rob, you delievred what you set out to achieve, me getting rid of the nicotine addiction.
This is by far the best method. I was a 20 per day smoker and that was for years and years but not anymore. So happy!
The after service is great to, if you need to speak with them, I have been told I only need call and they will support me.
Day flew by and was easy to be free! If you want to stop then this is the way to stop smoking & quit vaping.
Day flew by and was easy to be free!
Frequently asked Questions
How successful is Allen Carr’s Easyway? / What is your success rate?
expand_moreThe success rate at Allen Carr’s Easyway Centres is over 50% after 12 months as indicated in independent scientific studies in peer review journals1.
It is also more effective than established government programmes including the gold standard NHS 1-1 service & the Irish Health Service’s Quit.ie based on two randomised controlled trials published in a peer reviewed journals.
Can I still socialise with my smoker and vaper friends when I stop?
expand_moreAbsolutely. When you leave a seminar you are free from the tricks that nicotine plays on the brain and you will not want to smoke or vape again.
This means you are free to socialise with smokers and vapers even while they smoke and not feel the desire to join them.
We know that’s hard to believe – but take our word for it – whether you’re surrounded by smokers at work or at home or throughout your social life – you’ll be a happy non-smoker and won’t be tempted to smoke. Even better – you won’t turn into one of those awful “reformed smokers” – someone who quits smoking and subsequently hassles and harangues their smoking friends.
Your friends, colleagues, and family will be amazed how easily you’ll cope with life as a happy non-smoker and you won’t feel like you’re missing out on anything once you quit smoking.
What happens when you stop smoking? Do you have a Quit Smoking Timeline?
expand_moreThe effects of quitting smoking cigarettes and tobacco are dramatic and begin the moment you stub out your final cigarette. Taking a look at the smoking withdrawal timeline and health benefits of quitting smoking aren’t always an effective motivating factor to help someone quit smoking – but they are fabulous factors to enjoy and celebrate once you become free from nicotine addiction.

Are there terrible withdrawal pangs from nicotine?
expand_moreYou may believe that nicotine withdrawal is difficult and unpleasant, and this belief would create a tremendous fear of stopping for anyone, but is withdrawal really that bad?
The reality is that smokers and vapers go into withdrawal whenever they put out a cigarette or stop vaping. After just 6 hours of not smoking, you are 97% nicotine-free. Smokers sleep through nicotine withdrawal every night when they go to sleep but it’s so mild that it doesn’t even wake them up!
To overcome your fear of withdrawal, you need the facts, not the fiction. Get the facts about nicotine withdrawal (trust us, you’ll be pleasantly surprised) and quit easily with Allen Carr’s Easyway.
What affects how long nicotine is in your system?
expand_moreOn average it takes 4 days for Nicotine to leave your bloodstream, saliva and urine. But there are many factors that affect how long it takes from number of cigarettes smoked to your age and your hormones.

- Most purposes explained in this notice rely on the storage or accessing of information from your device when you use an app or visit a website. For example, a vendor or publisher might need to store a cookie on your device during your first visit on a website, to be able to recognise your device during your next visits (by accessing this cookie each time).
- A car manufacturer wants to promote its electric vehicles to environmentally conscious users living in the city after office hours. The advertising is presented on a page with related content (such as an article on climate change actions) after 6:30 p.m. to users whose non-precise location suggests that they are in an urban zone.
- A large producer of watercolour paints wants to carry out an online advertising campaign for its latest watercolour range, diversifying its audience to reach as many amateur and professional artists as possible and avoiding showing the ad next to mismatched content (for instance, articles about how to paint your house). The number of times that the ad has been presented to you is detected and limited, to avoid presenting it too often.
- If you read several articles about the best bike accessories to buy, this information could be used to create a profile about your interest in bike accessories. Such a profile may be used or improved later on, on the same or a different website or app to present you with advertising for a particular bike accessory brand. If you also look at a configurator for a vehicle on a luxury car manufacturer website, this information could be combined with your interest in bikes to refine your profile and make an assumption that you are interested in luxury cycling gear.
- An apparel company wishes to promote its new line of high-end baby clothes. It gets in touch with an agency that has a network of clients with high income customers (such as high-end supermarkets) and asks the agency to create profiles of young parents or couples who can be assumed to be wealthy and to have a new child, so that these can later be used to present advertising within partner apps based on those profiles.
- An online retailer wants to advertise a limited sale on running shoes. It wants to target advertising to users who previously looked at running shoes on its mobile app. Tracking technologies might be used to recognise that you have previously used the mobile app to consult running shoes, in order to present you with the corresponding advertisement on the app.
- A profile created for personalised advertising in relation to a person having searched for bike accessories on a website can be used to present the relevant advertisement for bike accessories on a mobile app of another organisation.
- You read several articles on how to build a treehouse on a social media platform. This information might be added to a profile to mark your interest in content related to outdoors as well as do-it-yourself guides (with the objective of allowing the personalisation of content, so that for example you are presented with more blog posts and articles on treehouses and wood cabins in the future).
- You have viewed three videos on space exploration across different TV apps. An unrelated news platform with which you have had no contact builds a profile based on that viewing behaviour, marking space exploration as a topic of possible interest for other videos.
- You read articles on vegetarian food on a social media platform and then use the cooking app of an unrelated company. The profile built about you on the social media platform will be used to present you vegetarian recipes on the welcome screen of the cooking app.
- You have viewed three videos about rowing across different websites. An unrelated video sharing platform will recommend five other videos on rowing that may be of interest to you when you use your TV app, based on a profile built about you when you visited those different websites to watch online videos.
- You have clicked on an advertisement about a “black Friday” discount by an online shop on the website of a publisher and purchased a product. Your click will be linked to this purchase. Your interaction and that of other users will be measured to know how many clicks on the ad led to a purchase.
- You are one of very few to have clicked on an advertisement about an “international appreciation day” discount by an online gift shop within the app of a publisher. The publisher wants to have reports to understand how often a specific ad placement within the app, and notably the “international appreciation day” ad, has been viewed or clicked by you and other users, in order to help the publisher and its partners (such as agencies) optimise ad placements.
- You have read a blog post about hiking on a mobile app of a publisher and followed a link to a recommended and related post. Your interactions will be recorded as showing that the initial hiking post was useful to you and that it was successful in interesting you in the related post. This will be measured to know whether to produce more posts on hiking in the future and where to place them on the home screen of the mobile app.
- You were presented a video on fashion trends, but you and several other users stopped watching after 30 seconds. This information is then used to evaluate the right length of future videos on fashion trends.
- The owner of an online bookstore wants commercial reporting showing the proportion of visitors who consulted and left its site without buying, or consulted and bought the last celebrity autobiography of the month, as well as the average age and the male/female distribution of each category. Data relating to your navigation on its site and to your personal characteristics is then used and combined with other such data to produce these statistics.
- An advertiser wants to better understand the type of audience interacting with its adverts. It calls upon a research institute to compare the characteristics of users who interacted with the ad with typical attributes of users of similar platforms, across different devices. This comparison reveals to the advertiser that its ad audience is mainly accessing the adverts through mobile devices and is likely in the 45-60 age range.
- A technology platform working with a social media provider notices a growth in mobile app users, and sees based on their profiles that many of them are connecting through mobile connections. It uses a new technology to deliver ads that are formatted for mobile devices and that are low-bandwidth, to improve their performance.
- An advertiser is looking for a way to display ads on a new type of consumer device. It collects information regarding the way users interact with this new kind of device to determine whether it can build a new mechanism for displaying advertising on this type of device.
- A travel magazine has published an article on its website about the new online courses proposed by a language school, to improve travelling experiences abroad. The school’s blog posts are inserted directly at the bottom of the page, and selected on the basis of your non-precise location (for instance, blog posts explaining the course curriculum for different languages than the language of the country you are situated in).
- A sports news mobile app has started a new section of articles covering the most recent football games. Each article includes videos hosted by a separate streaming platform showcasing the highlights of each match. If you fast-forward a video, this information may be used to select a shorter video to play next.
- An advertising intermediary delivers ads from various advertisers to its network of partnering websites. It notices a large increase in clicks on ads relating to one advertiser, and uses data regarding the source of the clicks to determine that 80% of the clicks come from bots rather than humans.
- Clicking on a link in an article might normally send you to another page or part of the article. To achieve this, 1°) your browser sends a request to a server linked to the website, 2°) the server answers back (“here is the article you asked for”), using technical information automatically included in the request sent by your device, to properly display the information / images that are part of the article you asked for. Technically, such exchange of information is necessary to deliver the content that appears on your screen.
- When you visit a website and are offered a choice between consenting to the use of profiles for personalised advertising or not consenting, the choice you make is saved and made available to advertising providers, so that advertising presented to you respects that choice.
