LivingFree | Breaking Tobacco Addiction
The tobacco problem
Smoking isn’t just a habit, it’s a complex psychological addiction. Which is why 14 percent of US adults continue to smoke despite knowing that it’s disastrous for their health.
Tobacco use has not only cost millions of people their health but also carries a significant economic cost. A smoking employee costs their employer an estimated $5,816 each year in increased health costs, lost productivity and absenteeism.
Why most tobacco solutions fall short
Typical behavior modification strategies focus on the use of willpower to overcome cravings but don’t address the psychological drivers that result in continuing undesired behaviors. Likewise, medications treat the physical aspects of tobacco addiction without taking the powerful psychological aspects into account. The LivingFree tobacco cessation program takes a different approach.
The SelfHelpWorks approach
LivingFree focuses on changing the way people think about smoking rather than telling them what to do to quit. Using a scientifically-based cognitive behavioral training process, LivingFree breaks down and replaces the intertwined dysfunctional beliefs, subconscious thoughts, and emotions that create cravings for tobacco. The result is genuine, lasting behavior change and a higher quality of life.
Perhaps that’s why a university study found that the LivingFree tobacco cessation program achieved triple the six-month quit-rate of the American Cancer Society’s self-help program.

Research & Statistics
The smoking quit rate at six months was 38.1% for individuals who took at least the first session of LivingFree, almost three times higher than the 13.3% quit rate for smokers that used the American Cancer Society’s self-help materials.
Studies at St. Luke’s Hospital indicate a six-month quit-rate of 78% for those who completed all sessions of the LivingFree program.
