To begin let's talk about your nasty addiction to tobacco. Think about how much your body needs to smoke a cigarette every time you're nervous or anxious. Doesn't that cigarette make you feel good? Well, you should know that tobacco actually has no soothing or relaxing effect so that feeling you experience is purely psychological.

So, the first thing you should know is that you smoke because one day you decided to do so, and just as you started, you can stop being stupid and give up those cancer sticks. Yes, it is true that nicotine is addictive and once you start to get used to smoking it is harder to quit. Difficult, but not impossible!

So, in order to use cinnamon sticks to quit smoking all you have to do is always take them with you, especially in those areas where you have higher levels of stress (the car, work, etc.). With your cinnamon sticks always at hand, it will be easier than ever when your body needs a cigarette. Instead, put a cinnamon stick in your mouth and imitate the act of smoking: hold it the same way you would hold a cigarette, exhale air just as when you do when you smoke, and so on and so forth.

This is replacement therapy. You can help change habits and finally stop smoking. In addition, the sweet taste of cinnamon also kills the craving for tobacco as it is replaced by a new stimulus or pleasure.
