This is all good stuff and there are plenty of considered words here but to me it comes down to just the one � choice. Penitent

Yikes I can't believe I missed this...Thank you for the information regarding reframing. I believe that we use this technique regularly when we quit smoking. We just don't recognize what we are doing though. How often do we see our struggles with addiction described as a battle? Don't we hear people say (write) that they feel torn between two forces, the desire to smoke vs the desire for cessation? Is not that situation the basis of all of our interactions on this site? I believe it is. Now reframiming is a technique used by a moderator to help opposing parties "restate" or reframe their view points in a way that will alter perceptions to a degree that will banish intransigence. It is a method for conflict resolution. And who on the planet is more in need of conflict resolution than us good old addicted folks? Goodness gracious ladies and gentlemen we have been at war with ourselves since first we inhaled the weed. Now the question remains, if the opposing forces are the desire to smoke vs. the desire for cessation, who is the moderator? To my way of thinking, that would be me, my soul, my consciousness, or what ever it is that I believe myself to be. I happen to understand myself as a soul who happens to have a body. Therefore it is my soul that does the moderating. And for me this is a very real process. It is the major part of the process that has enabled me to quit smoking. As I struggled with quitting I was training my soul (self) to understand that when a perceived negative thing happened, I did not need to smoke. This was done by modifying my internal perception of the need to smoke (cost/benefit) vs. my need for cessation (cost/benefit). Exactly how one does that is ineffable, but I know it happens. Quitting is all about altering perceptions in a way that enables one to reach a point of cessation (resolution). And the way this is done is very much akin to this method of reframing as it is practiced in the external world. That�s what I think anyway... nonic [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]12/25/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 438 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 13,140 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $4,599.00 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 81 [B]Hrs:[/B] 17 [B]Mins:[/B] 46 [B]Seconds:[/B] 27

Members, Please take what you want from CBT day and feel free to ask questions about the topic. As smoking cessation is largely based on behaviour modification every Thursday and Sunday the moderators will be posting a new Cognitive Behaviour topic. These exercises have been clinically proven to work well amongst those that are working towards behaviour modification. Over the last two weeks, we've been demonstrating ways to modify your communication techniques to be more assertive and positive. If you have found them unhelpful, then you are under no obligation to complete the suggested exercises. We will continue to post similar exercises for all members to work through at their own pace. Alohakeia - There are many great books written on CBT and assertiveness and communication. You can read more about context re-framing on Neuro-linguistic programming websites or books.
