I quit smoking on April 25th, 2018. I replaced smoking with exercise. I used to wake up and smoke, then have coffee and a smoke then drive to work and have a smoke. Now I wake up and exercise every morning and I love it. I don’t even think about smoking. When I have a craving and I cannot exercise per se, I research new exercise programs and diets I can experiment with.

I love this program and I’m telling all my smoker friends about it.

On April 30th, 2018, I started an 8 week couch to 5K program. On May 18th I turned 46, and I bought myself an inflatable paddle board. On June 27th I got my 5K Runner Badge. I continue to run 5K plus 3 days a week, and I get faster every day I run. Through it all I have lost 35 pounds.

None of this would have happened if I had continued to smoke. In fact I hate to even think about where I would be if I were still smoking. I am so excited to be a non-smoker, and I love my smoke-free life. Thank you Nasia!

I smoked for 40+ years. I had tried many, many times to quit and failed. It was not until I stumbled across this program have I been free of this horrible addiction. I owe it all to Nasia Davos, If it wasn't for this truly amazing CBQ method, and the quit smoking community, I would not be this far today. TO all of you starting out, STAY THE COURSE, you will get here!

The CBQ program has been a miracle for me. I am a happy non smoker since 7 August 2020! This is an amazing program that I would recommend to every smoker. It was so easy for me and i smoked a pack a day for 50 years. Please invest in this program you will not regret it if you follow it as instructed.

I followed the CBQ method exactly. Every morning I sat on my porch and listened to Nasia and took notes. I think the note taking helped.. I wrote down almost everything she said. I did all the assignments for the day and reread my notes at night. Honestly I was shocked how easy it was... I had very little cravings and did not need willpower.

My advice would be to choose to quit and have a plan that includes a quit date. The CBQ method does that. I was scared when I started the program because I had to set my quit date but once I started the program it all fell into place and I was welcoming my quit date. I have been smoke free with no or little withdrawal. None of my attempts have worked. The Lord and this program guided me to victory 💖

Nasia you are amazing and I do miss seeing you every morning.
Fondly

I am sooo grateful to Nasia for this amazing program. It took me a whole month to do my 10 days but I am so glad that I didn’t give up and continued on the smoke cessation program.

I wanted to be free from being a slave of cigs. I couldn’t do a 20 minute cardio or even walk up the stairs without being so out of breath. I wanted to do good for my body because I wasn’t born a smoker. The mind shift is everything! Nasia puts it so well in her program. Best investment of my life.

I was a bit hesitant to buy the program. To be honest I had just moved continents, no job and at the beginning of Covid. So money was tight. But I knew I had to take a chance. I had watched Nasia Davos videos and loved what she was offering for free. Now coming up to 2 years, I am so glad I took a chance with the program. What I loved about the program is that you’re not told to quit smoking on day one, you don’t use willpower, something I had used before and fell back into the trap. This is the longest I have been a non-smoker and cheers to many many many more years. I watched the videos and did the assignments and exercises. I am soooo happy now.

I now have my life back, I am a certified Fitness trainer and Coach @kipp.fit and getting my breathing back is the most amazing thing. I love my morning workouts now- even Cardio. I can breathe, I love the way my clothes smell, I workout without losing breath. I am happy!! Best decision I ever made was to take a chance.

I quit on April 20, 2020. Me and my wife’s 18 wedding anniversary.
No relapses or cheats at all!
It’s been quite strange though. I have tried quitting many times and with many different techniques and each time I am, as you say, a deprived non-smoker. And all I can do is think about smoking.

This time however, it hasn’t been like that. Sure there are some triggers but for the majority of the time, I don’t even think about smoking. I go through the days and then I will realize I don’t even remember when I might have last thought about smoking.

I know you explained to us how the program works and took us through step by step, but I admit I was skeptical because it seemed like hocus pocus and I had so many failed attempts with different methods. But somehow it just worked. I had that last cigarette at 7:00pm and then the next day I did not even miss it. Not even with my morning coffee 1 hr after waking up:). I don’t think about before going to sleep thinking how good it will be to wake up and have a smoke, or when I do wake up thinking how good it will be when I get my coffee.

I want to thank you for developing this program and thank you and your team for your support.

The biggest thing about this for me is that now I finally feel like I’ve been able to keep my promise to my daughter that I will quit. After making this promise so many times and failing, I know she was beginning to give up on me, and disappointing your child like that is one of the biggest heartaches I’ve ever had.

Thanks again for everything.

Lance Draper - Happy Non-Smoker! 🙂

Thank you so very much for this excellent smoking cessation method, CBQ Method, that you created to help people like me finally stop smoking!!!

I have been trying to quit smoking for many years. The first time I tried was in 1987. I started smoking in 1977. So I have smoked for 44 years and have tried to quit for 34 years. I have literally tried every method known to quit. Being a smoker was never who I truly was. Your program was the first to have ever worked for me and it worked like magic. I know that sounds unbelievable and I cannot explain it.

I have tried and failed with every other method out there. I was a smoker who truly believed I enjoyed smoking! Smoking is the absolute worst!!! The only people who benefit from smoking are big tobacco, morticians, and pharmaceutical companies. Freedom is so sweet!!!

I have learned so much from the CBQ program and I owe Nasia Davos a great debt. For me, in the past, smoking a cigarette was my first coping mechanism! For anger, depression, and everything else in between. I would leave the situation, go off by myself somewhere and smoke and think about what was happening inside of me. Then I usually felt somewhat better or more together and I would rejoin the situation or not. So the cigarette would get all the credit for making me feel better( when it actually was only relieving my craving for nicotine) and I was the one actually doing all of the work trying to figure out how I was going to cope with the situation. As a non smoker, I still remove myself from the situation and go somewhere by myself to think. I just don’t smoke because I fought like hell to get rid of that problem and I no longer have to satisfy the nicotine craving. Removing myself from the situation does help.

The other thing I’m doing is I ordered a workbook on cognitive behavioral therapy and I’m working my way through it. It’s not easy but at 62, I figured I better start learning to cope with my problems without a cigarette. It’s a journey.

Such an amazing program! I will recommend it highly!!!

I quit on Aug 13th 2020. I smoked for 50 years. I know I will never go back to smoking.

For me I never believed that smoking was all about chemical dependency. If that were true smokers would be like other addicts and wake in the middle of the night needing a fix. That never happened to me in almost 5 decades of smoking. When I found this program I knew I was at the right place. My advice would be to follow the program and know that it’s mostly a mind game you are playing. That helped me a lot.

I tried many times to quit. I would quit for a few days or a week and then back to smoking. After going through the CBQ program something in my brain switched and I simply no longer needed to smoke. First step was to think of myself as a nonsmoker.

I bought the program because I want them to make money and be able to continue this great program. Also I thought it would provide more in-depth detail and it did.

The CBQ Method is amazing. I don’t miss smoking at all.

I love being smoke free (and nicotine free) - since March 4, 2019! I feel like I finally got that monkey off my back! I am thrilled with my success. I followed the program, did the exercises everyday, visualized how I would conquer my triggers. This program is priceless. I feel like for the first time in many years I will succeed. I feel like if anyone goes through the program they will succeed. But, first of all you have to understand you are NOT losing your best friend you are gaining your life and health back. After 3 or 4 days all the nicotine is out of your system and then it is just a mind game. Mind over matter at that point.
This truly is the best program ever! I followed it completely and did every exercise. I couldn’t have done this without this program. So thankful to Nasia and team!! So today I’m grateful for how good I feel and how thankful I am that I am two years free of that awful habit!

I did quitting. I did. I did...I'm happy Non-Smoker since 11/28/2019. Since halfway of program, i decided to replace smoking with some healthy lifestyle..Yes, I hit the gym first time in my life and started achieving good physics now. I surprised my elder daughter on her 10th birthday with Non-smoker shirt and told her I quit smoking. She was fighting, crying for this moment for long time along with her mother. Please see the photo of that beautiful moment. I don't know the right word to express my gratitude to you and team. My quit date was thanksgiving day and i made my wife feel good and relaxed forever. She is the one waited for that moment for almost 15 years. Now I'm proud to be an inspiring person in my family. I started applying many of the principles of the program into my life to set new healthy goals in my life. I know the proverb "Health is wealth" but only recent days i started feeling it from my heart. Thanks again.

This program works! It was worth every penny. I am amazed every day that I actually quit. I never thought that I would or could. I have a background in psychology so can really relate to what Nasia is saying about the Cognitive Behavioral aspect of stopping smoking.
I have smoked off and on since I was around 15 years old. Today I am 65. You can do the math. Now that I’ve quit I feel liberated and exhilarated. I feel that I finally have control over cigarettes, which have controlled my life for 50 years!
I have quit smoking so many times I’ve lost count. This time is much different. In addition to it being an awesome program, your kindness and compassion come through and that is so comforting. I have not replaced nicotine with food and I’m walking regularly. I always have walked but I always had my cigarettes with me. This is a life changer.

This program is a miracle. I don’t have any cravings for cigarettes or food. I feel free. I don’t ever have to smoke again!

I feel like I have achieved something really important and it has impacted my health. My skin looks better and I don’t cough all the time. Plus, in case I haven’t mentioned this before, I have saved approximately $2,200 in the last year by not buying cigarettes. I love being a non-smoker. You can do this. I never thought I would quit. Ever.

Thank you Nasia!

I am 69 yrs old.. been smoking for 55 yrs ...I’ve tried hypnosis, laser, Champix pills, all nicotine substitutes, acupuncture, willpower, you name it.. I worked this CBQ program and the fascinating thing is that I haven’t had the urge to smoke.
I thought it would be tougher ... being in Lockdown for Covid and all... and not being able to excise because I broke my collarbone On Feb 2 (same day I started CBQ course)
Work the program.. do the coursework.. diligently.. CBQ is a gift
