Allen Carr

Allen Carr (1934-2006) was a chain-smoker for over 30 years. In 1983, after countless failed attempts to quit, he went from 100 cigarettes a day to zero without suffering withdrawal pangs, without using willpower and without gaining weight. He realised that he had discovered what the world had been waiting for - the Easy Way to Stop Smoking - and embarked on a mission to help cure the world's smokers. Easyway has grown to become a global phenomenon with seminar centres in 150+ cities in more than 50 countries around the world. Allen Carr's Easyway books, online video programmes, and live group seminars have helped an estimated 50 million smokers worldwide. A vast majority of those happy non-smokers became aware of the method as a result of personal recommendation from their friends, family, and colleagues. Allen Carr is now recognised as the world's leading expert on helping smokers to quit and has sold over 16 million books on the topic. His Easyway method has been successfully applied to a host of issues including weight control, alcohol and other addictions and fears. In 2006, Allen was diagnosed with lung cancer and passed away that November handing responsibility for Easyway over to his closest and most trusted colleagues.

Alcohol: the Easyway solution

Allen Carr

Dedication

It gives me great pleasure to dedicate this book to Crispin Hay.

Cris is not only a close friend and colleague, but also Easyway’s leading pathfinder in helping others escape the tyranny of the bottle.

Without his commitment, expertise and compassion, this book would not have been possible.

INTRODUCTION

In 1983 I discovered something every smoker dreams of – an easy way to stop smoking. I quit my previous career, and set out to cure the world of smoking. I am now widely regarded as the world’s leading expert on helping smokers quit. My book The Easy Way to Stop Smoking, has sold over ten million copies, and my network of clinics spans the globe.

However, my success has not been limited to smokers. I have helped people with a variety of problems, from overeating to substance addiction to fear of flying.

The irony is that for many years I was consuming more and more of the most widely available ‘substance’ of all.

But I found a solution to my predicament, and I am delighted to share it with you.

ALCOHOL IS EVERYWHERE

It is consumed by 90 per cent of UK adults. But few stop to question their assumptions about booze. The media don’t help when they circulate misleading phrases such as ‘alcohol and drugs’. A better expression would be ‘alcohol and other drugs’ – or just ‘drugs’ – because alcohol is a drug.

Our society marginalizes most kinds of drug-taking, but with alcohol the roles are reversed: people question why you don’t take it. If you don’t drink in this society many people assume you’re a bit of a freak.

WHAT KIND OF DRINKER ARE YOU?

Maybe you’re a normal drinker who’s had one too many hangovers. You might suspect that you’re a problem drinker, or you might know full well that you’re an alcoholic. Whatever kind of drinker you are, you must have picked up this book for a reason.

Whether you’re seeking to control alcohol or aiming to quit completely, you are holding the answer – providing you follow six simple instructions.

You might find this an extravagant claim, but surely it’s worth investigating. If I’m wrong, you will have wasted the price of a couple of drinks and a few hours’ drinking time. If I’m right, your troubles with drink are over.

HERE ARE THE FIRST FOUR INSTRUCTIONS:

1)  Follow all the instructions.

2)  Read the book only when you are sober.

3)  Read the book in strict order, from beginning to end.

4) Unless you’ve already quit for a few days or more, do not attempt to abstain from alcohol or cut down until you’ve read and understood the whole book.

Think of the solution to your dilemma as a priceless treasure kept in a safe. Here are the numbers that will open the safe:

293658

How confident do you feel that you could get at the treasure?

BUT ARE THEY IN THE RIGHT ORDER?

I just gave you the numbers. I didn’t tell you what order they should go in.

The combination that will open the safe is 652839: same numbers, different sequence.

Picture each instruction as one of those numbers. Ignore just one instruction, or take just one out of sequence, and the safe won’t open. For example, if you were to try and quit or cut down before finishing the book, you would almost certainly feel deprived at some point, and fail.

KEEP AN OPEN MIND

The chances are you assumed the numbers to the combination were in the correct order. But then we’re always making assumptions.

Here are the two remaining instructions:

5)  Question your assumptions about alcohol.

6)  Be positive.

A pessimist sees the bottle as half empty, an optimist as half full. It’s two ways of seeing the same thing. Since optimists tend to be happy, you may as well choose to see it as half full.
