- In this video, you will learn 3 ways to manage your emotions without smoking.
Maybe (if you’re like me and most other smokers), you’re worried that quitting smoking will make you anxious, irritable, or depressed. Perhaps you’ve been smoking for a long time and don’t know any other way to cope.
So how can you manage your emotions without nicotine?
In this video, you’ll learn:
• A new way to think about emotions
• 3 ways to better manage your emotions
• How quitting smoking affects your emotions
• How to avoid lashing out after quitting smoking
• How long it takes for your brain to feel normal after you quit
Managing your emotions doesn’t mean always feeling good (that’s not realistic).
Instead, it means being able to navigate the different emotions you experience without reaching for a cigarette.
What helps you manage your emotions? I shared my favourite tip in the video. Let me know yours in the comments below👇

Thanks so much for watching! What helps you manage your emotions? I shared my favorite tip in the video. Let me know yours in the comments below👇
@Laddie Land that's a great idea. You can also see how to manage stress here: czcams.com/video/mJPIhPq4klM/video.html
I keep bringing myself to the threshold where I'm about ready to take that step towards waking up and trying to get through the first day without smoking and perhaps without coffee. Then I manage to argue with myself and come up with 38,000 reasons why I'm not ready, why it's not a good idea, why it's not safe?
Even when I know I want to stop, I don't like the habits and patterns I create more stress and unhappiness, pushing myself to be separated continuously.
I know that not smoking will open up so much more time for exercise and study recreation but I choose not to allow myself to have that time. I could try to point fingers but it doesn't have anything to do with others so much, often enough I smoke to gain a few minutes to myself. I think sometimes if I don't smoke I'd be smothered. If you have suggestions I'd really like to hear.
hi again always watching you now and im gonna ask again about my weight loss is it because of my withdrwal for about 4 weeks from now?

Yes this is true for me. I need these emotion videos. Any new info please post. Thank you
you teach me and I quit smoking and now I'm looking so attractive
After one week of quitting smoking I still fill very sick and angry but I can breathe very good . Thank you for the information
I’m managing my emotions through music… it calms me and hypes me when I’m down
I've saved this video to watch again. My emotions play a huge role in why I smoke. Thanks so much for this!
Manage your emotions witout smoking I think even does like me who don't somke need that video
4 words for the Marvelous work you do - GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS 😇
Please do make Emotional management, as some may have issue without smoking.
You look really beautiful in these clothes today.. I wish you the best♥️
Please sister, create more on this topic
6 days without smoke 🙏
Besides all these great tips, this is one of the reasons I fashioned a straw, (just the first very hard days) filled with a paper towel, to emulate the slow breath I would take, and to trick my mind. The practice was seldom, and I had nothing addictive going in me, allowing the nicotine to decrease. It really helped me so much...
yes ha ha ha. A cigarette only lasts a few short minutes anyway. I have noticed that sucking air through fingers (pretend smoke) for a few mins can provide relief.
@@now591 ...I still have not picked up another cig. You do what you gotta do...lol
Thank you Nasia for the video .Emotions'' are a very interesting subject and I think society tends to discourage emotion as ''scary and ineffective in life'' and smoking is just one form of escape or distraction people use. It is a shame because emotions are our friend and is a strength when we harness them...
Agreed!
thank you! i am watching lots of your videos while on my second day without cigarettes. For me it is soo much mental addiciton. My dad died on Friday and i am in bad mental state plus other bad staff happened. I cannot smoke anymore because of my income got too small. I wish i could smoke. I honestly don't know how to survive.
Because i know that i will start my emotional eating soon. But i have no money for that too lol. I think i should start my dream of hobby i like - doing embroidery
I love this video! The host is so adorable and refreshing, she makes you want to do better and quit that ugly smoking habit. I am preparing myself to do this.
Thank you. I would like more videos on emotions please. Thanks
No nicotine since last night, these videos have unlocked my brain thank you ❤
Congratulations! You're welcome :)
Bravo!
You are diamond 💎 thank you so much for the information because I was very concerned why I am very worried all the time . After one week I am still waiting to be normal after 16 years of smoking.

@@authorrajusingh6916 me too - thank u nasia!!
I’m the same way as the individual who was worried
about quitting smoking since he thought that’s cigs
were the only way to manage his anger issues.
Sadly I can not abruptly quit therefor
I’m just reducing to quit so far this strategy
has been working perfectly for Me.
Thank you for this video
Simply amazing 💯🎯
Love your videos, especially on dealing with our emotions. Thank you so much for your work 💕.
Very helpful
Very helpful. Thank you
Your information is helpful
Yes more videos please!
If you can do more videos on emotional side of smoking please. I have quite intense emotions, sometimes they are very intense so I find it hard to replace my craving to smoke with more healthy alternatives.
Hi Jo Jo, thank you for your comment. If you smoke to help you cope with intense emotions, we recommend tuning in to a different, helpful emotion as soon as you notice you’re feeling those intense emotions (sad, angry, stressed, depressed, etc.) An emotion you can tune into is gratitude. We can't feel negative emotions (anger, frustration, stress, depression) and grateful at the same time. 🙂 In this video below, Nasia will show you how to practice gratitude: czcams.com/video/mJPIhPq4klM/video.html
@@CBQMethod thank you for your reply and advice. Will that tomorrow
Yes

Condolences to you for your dad, I know it been a while now hope things get much much better and you keep trying 🙏🏼💕
Thank you very much..
You're welcome :)
I would love to hear more on emotions and quitting. This is a big problem area for me in quitting. Also how do you feel about herbal cigarettes as a method for quitting.
Hi Shannette, thank you for commenting! I will do more videos on this topic :) A method to quit smoking has to take you through the emotional, behavioral, and mental changes you need to go through so you can live life without smoking. For that reason, I don’t see herbal cigarettes as a method to quit smoking because herbal cigarettes can’t help you change how you think about & see smoking. Perhaps it’s a tool to keep your hands busy, but if that’s what you’re looking for it’s best to try something that doesn’t require inhaling things (even if they’re herbs) I explain more about it here: czcams.com/video/JrgJXJ-ldUg/video.html hope it helps :)
I was wondering if an herbal cig would help me quit.
Maybe try meditating in the morning - a successful meditation will increase your brain's emotional radar - you'll see the anger coming so you can acknowledge what it is rather than just get consumed by it. It basically makes your brain wise up and chill out so it's not tricked into wasting time being angry.
please can you make more videos on emotional management. 💗
Yes more emotion video
I love your videos!! ❤️ I quit and relapsed but you make me feel like I can do this. They say it’s 80% mental right
i've had no nicotine for 6 weeks and i'd say it's 99% mental!
@@amberdreama2711 For me it's 100% mental. I like nicotine cravings. Just a burst of energy. Only been a week off them for me. I don't get cravings anymore, just lots of mental symptoms. I actually miss being at work and only getting a smoke every 4 hours or so, because after 2 hours into a shift I'd get a bunch of cravings and it just motivates me and wakes me up. I can go a day without a smoke no problem. Done it tons of times when I use to smoke. But after that 24 hours life becomes bit of a nightmare. Never did go long enough to see the mental withdrawal subside. Hoping I make it this quit and find out how long it takes to feel normal again!
I feel like the main thing stopping me from quitting is that I keep making excuses to not do it “the house has to be clean” “I have to exercise first” I feel like the only way to quit is have all my life activities done and to just lay there in misery which isn’t the way to quit I realize and it’s why I never even try to too!
It’s so easy to use all these activities as a replacement!
Yes please
Thank you Nasia for the great content you're sharing. Do you provide training to aspiring tobacco treatment specialists?
You're very welcome! This is something we're currently working on (and looking forward to making available!!!) If you're interested, please email my team at support@cbqmethod.com
How do you stop smoking in the middle of the grief of the loss of a loved one? My grief is fresh and this has been what feels like an insurmountable obstacle in my quit smoking plan.
Hi there,I have just thought that throughout my smoking life of 30+years,I smoke everytime I have any emotion,from happy to sad,to lonely and bored!why would this be?
anger management videos please Nasia and more about how to cope for 3 mths!!!
Hello!! This video on how to manage anger and irritation will help you :) czcams.com/video/z4AAMAXISSA/video.html
Nasia have you shared your story? Would love to hear how you got to this place
Hi Nita, yes of course! I share my story on the webinars I am hosting on how to quit smoking with the CBQ Method. If you want, you can register for one here: bit.ly/3nLUBMP - after the webinar you'll have a plan to quit with the CBQ that you can apply by yourself or with our team. Hope to see you there :)
I am pupil but I find it really difficult to focus and concentrate after quitting. Please guide me how to cope with this.
Hello, the initial lack of concentration after quitting smoking is because the mental cravings "thoughts about smoking" interrupt your train of thought. What you need to do is learn how to overcome and disregard those craving thoughts. Also, with time, you will notice you're better able to focus as a nonsmoker (as your brain takes in more oxygen and you don't have to interrupt yourself once every hour or so to smoke) You can learn more about withdrawal symptoms in our new video: czcams.com/video/XYeoCzUgwJA/video.html
@@CBQMethod much appreciated. It was helpful.
How do I manage severe depression and infertility stress while quitting?
Hi Jane, I'm sorry you're going through this. Keep in mind that both depression and infertility could greatly improve once you quit smoking. I talk more about depression and quitting smoking here cbqmethod.com/depression-after-quitting-smoking/ Let me know if it helps.
@@CBQMethod my husband is infertile I’m not infertile at all
@@janereich5170 thanks for clarifying. Please consider that smoking not only can't change this, but it also adds more problems to your life and mental health. You can see how to manage stress here: czcams.com/video/mJPIhPq4klM/video.html
