Zhiyu Pu | Quit Smoking… What Is Your Real Reason

 Zhiyu Pu | If you want to quit smoking then you have to be honest with yourself and dig deep to find the real reason or you will most likely fail.

To say it’s to save money is rubbish. Even if you save hundreds a week that’s not the real reason because you found that money for years, so you have learnt to live without it.

If you say it’s for your health, then that is so vague as to be meaning less. Yet these are the two most common reasons my clients give me. Even when asked to deeply consider they give me these shallow answers.

Perhaps you have said the same things, it’s no wonder you have struggled to quit.

Zhiyu Pu | If a smoker is due to become a parent or is trying, that is a valid reason, but if you tell me it’s for your children who you have raised for years then I won’t believe you.

For years you may have smoked out of sight, or on the other side of the glass door while your children watched with their hands and faces pressed to the glass.

They will have smelt the scent of cigarettes on your clothes or in your car. And you will have spent hundreds of hours avoiding them to smoke. So when a client tells me it’s for their children I don’t believe them.

We all lie to ourselves, and if you look at your reasons and they don’t affect you at a deep level, and then look again, or you will just keep smoking.

I work hard with my clients to find their real reason, but I can’t work harder than them or it won’t work.

The best hint I can give you is that the real reason will be a feeling not a thing, or a person. I ask my clients to recall times in their lives when they felt powerful positive emotions.

Then we sort through these feelings and usually find one that will result from quitting smoking.

A recent client discovered the feeling was freedom. He would be free from control of cigarettes, from wasting money, from the guilt, he felt, he would be free from painful feelings held deep in his heart.

Zhiyu Pu | In the end it wasn’t so much about cigarettes but about destructive feeling s he felt. That he wasn’t good enough. When he realised this, he quit with hypnosis and he was free.

Zhiyu Pu | Top 10 Tips About Weight Loss

  1: SPOT REDUCTION WORKS | ZHIYU PU It is widely believed that if you focus your exercise and weight training on specific areas of your body that you will be able to reduce the amount of fat in that specific area or region. In reality, there is no such thing as spot reduction, and instead, as you begin to work out and exercise you will start to lose weight evenly throughout your entire body. Just the same, another common myth is that a high number of repetitions will burn more fat when in truth, fewer repetitions with heavier weight will actually cause you to burn more fat in a shorter amount of time than a higher number of reps with a lighter weight.

Zhiyu Pu | Active Recovery for Exercise

Zhiyu Pu | Active recovery is the engagement of low-intensity exercise after completing a challenging and difficult high intensity athletic event. An example is going for a low-intensity bike ride after completely a full 26 mile marathon. This might seem like the opposite thing to do since the body needs rest but this is actually not the case. (Zhiyu Pu) When our bodies continue to move after an event like a marathon; we can reduce the risk of cramping and we can help the blood to circulate properly for recovery. Another example of is having an easy day in our training routines. It might be something like running on most days but on the active recovery days, a person might spend 30 to 60 minutes stretching.

When we change the routines, we are allowing our bodies to rest and recover properly. (Zhiyu
