Our Mission Is to Help Smokers Become Happy Non-Smokers with The CBQ Method™
The Cognitive Behavioral Quitting (CBQ) Method is a psychology-based 4-stage method that helps you stop wanting to smoke by changing how your mind thinks about and experiences smoking.

About the Creator of the CBQ Method
Nasia Davos (MBPsS, IPPA, BSc, MA) used to smoke, and she tried every method available, but nothing worked for her. That’s why she created the CBQ Method.
Nasia is an author, TEDx speaker, Licensed Master Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) Practitioner with a BSc in Psychology and an MA in Psychoanalysis. She is a Certified NLP Life Coach, Certified Hypnotherapy Practitioner, Certified TimeLine Therapy Practitioner, Smoking Cessation Practitioner Certified by NSCST, graduate member of the British Psychological Society, and member of the Red Cross.


Our Story
How the CBQ Method Came to Existence
Initially, Nasia was a smoker who didn’t care about quitting. She enjoyed smoking. She thought that smoking helped her cope with stress and savor life’s moments.
But when she lost a loved one to smoking, almost a decade ago, she realized she had to quit. She was as motivated as one could be. She tried every method out there… and failed every time.
But she didn’t give up.
She looked for new solutions.
She started searching for what really makes people quit.
She researched about smokers’ psychology, addiction, and habit formation.
More importantly, she interviewed happy non-smokers to find what they had in common. What was their secret?
And she found out that all happy non-smokers had changed how they think about smoking. So she set out to look for a way to recreate that experience for herself.
That’s how she discovered the exact 4 mental and behavioral stages of quitting smoking.
By going through these 4 stages she finally removed her mental addiction and quit smoking easily and permanently. That’s how she’s able to think and talk about smoking every day without ever craving one.
Her next step was to show her friends how to quit too. Those who used her method became happy non-smokers.
That was the moment Nasia knew she had developed a powerful quit smoking method.
So she started teaching it with great success.
For the last decade, Nasia and our team have been refining and perfecting this 4-stage method to what is now the CBQ method, which has reached and helped millions of smokers become happy non-smokers.
Her TEDx talk on the 4 quit smoking stages of the CBQ Method has over 820,000 views. Watch Nasia’s Ted Talk here: https://youtu.be/gnSEbLX94Tk
