With the exception of acupuncture, he\u2019d tried pretty much all the conventional methods to quit without success.<\/p>\n<p>Eventually he gave up even trying to quit believing \u201conce a smoker always a smoker\u201d. Then he discovered something which motivated him to try again.<\/p>\n<p>He said &#8220;I went overnight from a hundred cigarettes a day to zero \u2013 without any bad temper or sense of loss, void or depression. On the contrary, I actually enjoyed the process. I knew I was already a non-smoker even before I had extinguished my final cigarette and I\u2019ve never had the slightest urge to smoke since.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It didn\u2019t take Allen long to realize that he had discovered a method of quitting that would enable any smoker to quit easily without using willpower, aids, substitutes or gimmicks and without even having to gain weight.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s as true today, with the proliferation of e-cigarettes and vaping, nicotine sprays and inhalers, and whatever the next bright idea regarding nicotine delivery might be, as it ever was.<br>\nAllen used his smoking friends and relatives as guinea pigs, he gave up his lucrative profession as a qualified accountant and set up a center to help other smokers to quit. He called his method `EASYWAY\u2019 and so successful has it been that there are now <a href=\"https:\/\/www.allencarr.com\/en-us\/easyway-stop-smoking\/live-group-seminars\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Allen Carr\u2019s Easyway centres<\/a> in more than 150 cities in 50 countries worldwide. Best-selling books based on his method are now translated into over 38 languages, with more being added each year.<\/p>\n<p>Allen Carr\u2019s Easyway organization is now widely accepted as the world\u2019s leading authority on stopping smoking and the method has been successfully applied to alcohol addiction, weight issues, fear of flying, gambling addiction, debt, sugar addiction, caffeine addiction and a whole host of other legal and illegal drugs.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m aware that the claims of the method\u2019s success might appear far-fetched or exaggerated, at times even outrageous. That was certainly my reaction when I first heard them. I was incredibly fortunate to attend his center in London in 1997, yet I did so under duress. I had agreed to go, at the request of my wife, on the understanding that when I walked out of the center and remained a smoker she would leave it at least 12 months before hassling me about stopping smoking again. No one was more surprised than me, or perhaps my wife, that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.allencarr.com\/en-us\/about-allen-carrs-easyway\/the-allen-carr-easyway-method\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Allen Carr\u2019s Easyway method<\/a> set me free from my 80-a-day addiction.<\/p>\n<p>I was so inspired that I hassled and harangued Allen Carr and Robin Hayley (now Chairman of Allen Carr\u2019s Easyway) to let me get involved in their quest to cure the world of smoking. I was incredibly fortunate to have succeeded in convincing them to allow me to do so. Being trained by Allen Carr &amp; Robin Hayley was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. To be able to count Allen as not only my coach and mentor but also my friend was an amazing honour and privilege. Allen Carr and Robin Hayley trained me well \u2013 I went on to personally treat more than 30,000 smokers at Allen\u2019s original London center, and became part of the team that have taken Allen\u2019s method from Berlin to Bogota, from New Zealand to New York, from Sydney to Santiago. Tasked by Allen Carr to ensure that his legacy achieves its full potential we\u2019ve taken Allen Carr\u2019s Easyway from videos to DVD, from seminars at our centres, to apps, from computer games to audio books, to online programs and beyond.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s been an honour and a privilege to oversee our journey for the past 18 years and I\u2019ve never been more excited than I am now about the prospect of us achieving our task.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"button red hvr\" title=\"Read more about \u2018How to Stop Smoking\" href=\"https:\/\/www.allencarr.com\/en-us\/easyway-stop-smoking\/\">Read
