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!

Frequently asked Questions
How successful is Allen Carr’s Easyway? / What is your success rate?
The 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?
Absolutely. 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?
The 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?
You 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?
On 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.
