[id 0 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: What is the Stay Free program? A: Great question! The Stay Free program is your 30-day post-quit support program that begins right after Day 6 of the QuitSure program. Think of it as the next chapter of the same journey you've already started - not a separate program at all. It consists of 19 sessions, designed to be completed over 30 days. Each session helps you navigate withdrawal symptoms, triggers, cravings, and urges with practical tools and exercises. It works on keeping y --- [id 1 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: What topics does the Stay Free program cover? A: The Stay Free program is packed with practical support to keep you on track. Here's what you can look forward to: Guidance on handling withdrawal symptoms, cravings, triggers, and social situations. A specialised Toolkit you can use anytime, anywhere. Strategic repetition of the most important ideas - because repetition helps rewire the subconscious mind. Journaling exercises to help you process your thoughts and emotions. --- [id 2 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Is the Stay Free program a separate program? A: Not at all! We understand the confusion, but the Stay Free program is simply the next phase of the same QuitSure journey you've been on. Think of it as one continuous program of 36 days - 6 days of quitting + 30 days of staying free. You've already completed the hardest part. This phase is about supporting and strengthening the new “non-smoker” identity you've built. --- [id 3 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Why is there a Stay Free program after the quit program? A: That's a really important question, and we're glad you asked. Quitting is a powerful first step - and you've already taken it! The Stay Free program exists because lasting freedom requires more than just stopping. It equips you with the tools, exercises, and reinforcement you need to stay smoke-free for good. It helps you navigate the adjustment period with confidence. It addresses the psychological and emotional aspects that come up after quitt --- [id 4 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: How long is the Stay Free program? A: The program spans 30 days and includes 19 sessions. The sessions are thoughtfully spread out so you have time to absorb and practice what you learn. It's designed to fit comfortably into your life without feeling overwhelming. --- [id 5 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Why are the Stay Free sessions spread over 30 days? A: This program is about helping you deal with your experiences post quitting. By spreading sessions over 30 days, you can: Gradually reinforce the learnings at the pace your brain naturally adapts. Build long-term habits that support staying smoke-free. Practice the tools in real-life situations between sessions. Allow your subconscious mind time to absorb and integrate each concept deeply. This isn't about rushing - it's about lasting change. --- [id 6 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: How much time do I need to spend on the Stay Free program each day? A: Each day's content takes approximately 10-15 minutes to complete. We've designed it to be manageable and easy to fit into your daily routine - whether you're a busy professional, a parent, or juggling multiple responsibilities. Think of it as a brief daily check-in with your smoke-free self. --- [id 7 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Will the Stay Free program help me deal with withdrawal symptoms? A: Absolutely, yes. Managing withdrawal symptoms is one of the core focuses of the Stay Free program. We understand that the first few days and weeks can feel uncertain, and we want you to feel fully supported. The program provides practical strategies and exercises specifically designed to help you manage and overcome withdrawal symptoms. We have tools like Urge Surfing and Hypnosis video to help you when an urge refaces or when you are faced with --- [id 8 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Will the Stay Free program help me deal with urges and cravings? A: Yes, absolutely! The program includes dedicated sessions on understanding and managing cravings and urges. You'll learn: Techniques like Urge Surfing and 555 Breathing to ride through any moment. How to use the Thought Reframing tool to handle intrusive thoughts. TIPP Technique for handling emotions and strong urges. You're never alone in this - our tools and your coach are always available. --- [id 9 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Do I need to purchase another subscription for the Stay Free program? A: No, not at all! The Stay Free program is included as part of your original subscription at no extra cost. You've already invested in your freedom - this is our way of making sure that investment pays off for life. --- [id 10 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Is the Stay Free program mandatory? A: No, the Stay Free program is completely optional. If you feel confident that you don't need additional support after the 6-day quit program, you're absolutely free to skip it. Think of it like physiotherapy after surgery - the surgery was successful, and now this program helps you recover fully. That said, we genuinely recommend giving it a try - even completing just a few sessions can make a meaningful difference. Many users who felt confident --- [id 11 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Is there any waiting time before I can proceed to the next session? A: Yes, the session unlocking process works the same way as it did during the main program. This pacing is designed to give your mind time to absorb the content and practice all the exercises and what you've learned before moving to the next session. Trust the process - it's working in your favour. --- [id 12 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Will I have access to the Stay Free program once my subscription is over? A: The Stay Free program is available as long as your subscription is active. We encourage you to make the most of it while you have access - the Toolkit and insights you gain will stay with you for life, even after your subscription period ends. --- [id 13 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Can I revisit earlier Stay Free sessions? A: Yes, absolutely! You can use the arrow key on the home screen of the app to navigate back to earlier sessions anytime. Alternatively, you can click on any particular day as shown on the top of the profile section. Many users find it helpful to revisit certain sessions when they need a refresher or extra reinforcement. Feel free to go back as often as you'd like. If your subscription has expired, then you will need to reactivate the subscription t --- [id 14 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: What if I miss a day or two during the program? A: That's completely okay - life happens, and we understand! You can restart right where you left off. The content is sequential and designed so that you can complete it at your own pace. There's no penalty for missing a day, and the program will be right here waiting for you when you're ready. But for the best experience, we recommend that you follow it everyday. Just spare 10-15 minutes. --- [id 15 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: I was on Day 7 of the program earlier. Where can I find that? A: Thank you for asking - we understand this might feel confusing. We recently made an update to the program and removed Day 7 as a standalone day. However, we want to reassure you: all the important concepts from that session are now presented in the upcoming Stay Free sessions, along with a lot of new content and exercises. This is actually an improvement, because you now receive that information at the most appropriate time in your smoke-free jou --- [id 16 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: There was some content on Day 6 of the program. Now I can't find that. A: We completely understand your concern. We recently updated the program and moved some content from Day 6 that is better suited for after you've quit smoking. All the important concepts are now presented in the upcoming Stay Free sessions. This change was made because certain information is more effective and meaningful when you receive it at the right stage of your journey. Rest assured, nothing important has been lost - it's simply been placed w --- [id 17 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Is the Stay Free program something new? A: Yes! The Stay Free program is a recent update and addition to the existing QuitSure program. We're always working to improve the experience and provide better support. Based on feedback from thousands of users, we developed this program to help people maintain their smoke-free life with greater confidence and ease. --- [id 18 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: You said the program is only 6 days. Why do I have to complete another 30 days? Why didn't you tell me earlier? A: We completely understand your concern, and we appreciate you raising it. The 30-day Stay Free program is absolutely not mandatory - it's a support program designed to make your transition into a smoke-free life easier and more comfortable. Think of it as an upgrade to your experience, not a compulsion. You've already successfully quit with the help of the first 6 days of the program- that's the biggest achievement. The Stay Free program is simpl --- [id 19 | programs:P3 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: My subscription is about to get over. If I knew that there is another 30 days, I would have started the program sooner. A: We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience. The Stay Free program is a recent addition, so we weren't able to inform you earlier. We understand this can be frustrating. Please know that the complete 36-day program (6 days + 30 days) would have required a subscription period longer than one month regardless. The Stay Free program is not a compulsion - it's an optional support tool. If you'd like to continue with the remaining sessions, you can --- [id 20 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Are journals accessible after subscription is over? A: All your completed journals are accessible any time, even after your subscription expires. You can access journals in your toolkit tab or profile tab in the app. --- [id 21 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Are the exercises accessible after subscription is over? A: All the exercises, which were already unlocked, are accessible in Toolkit tab, even after your subscription is over. Even those exercises which were unlocked but not completed are accessible. --- [id 22 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: What is the Toolkit? Where can I find it? A: The Toolkit is one of the most helpful features in the app! Here's everything you need to know: You can find the Toolkit at the bottom bar of the app - it's the 4th tab from the left side. The Toolkit is a collection of all the important exercises you may need to use again in various situations - like 555 Breathing, Urge Surfing, Thought Reframing, Hypnosis Audio and the Final Scripts, etc. It's designed for your ease of access, so you don't hav --- [id 23 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: When will the module be unlocked after 10th day? A: The modules will be unlocked in the same way as before (i.e. the next day after starting the current day) --- [id 24 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: What if I am unable to complete the post quit program within my subscription period? A: Once your subscription expires, your access to the stay free sessions will be automatically blocked. However, if you found this helpful, I suggest that you renew your subscription and complete the program. The 30-day Stay Free program is absolutely not mandatory - it's a support program designed to make your transition into a smoke-free life easier and more comfortable. Think of it as an upgrade to your experience, not a compulsion. Most of the p --- [id 25 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: In which languages is the Stay Free program available? A: English only --- [id 26 | programs:P3/P9 | src:PQP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Why does the Stay Free program take 30 days if there are only 19 sessions? A: The frequency of sessions reduce as you progress through the program. So at later stages you will be doing one session every couple of days. --- [id 27 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: What is the QuitSure (Relaxed) program? A: Great question! The QuitSure (Relaxed) program is a 42-day guided program designed to help you quit smoking (or vaping) in a gradual, natural way. Each day, you'll spend just 10-12 minutes going through guided content - a mix of short videos, text sessions, and simple exercises. The content works on changing the way you think about smoking at a deep level, while the exercises help you apply those insights to your own smoking habits. The idea is --- [id 28 | programs:all | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: How is the QuitSure (Relaxed) program different from the QuitSure (Original) program? A: Both programs use the same proven psychology and science - the core approach is identical. The difference is really about pace and time commitment: QuitSure (Original) is an intensive 6-day program that requires about 60-90 minutes of your time each day. It's a deep dive - you go through all the material quickly and quit at the end of Day 6. QuitSure (Relaxed) spreads that journey over 42 days, requiring only 10-15 minutes a day. It allows for --- [id 29 | programs:all | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Why would I choose a 42-day program when I could quit in 6 days? A: That's a really fair question, and I'm glad you're thinking about it! The truth is, quitting isn't one-size-fits-all. The Original 6-day program works wonderfully for people who can carve out about an hour a day and want to dive in intensively. But for many people, that kind of daily commitment feels heavy - and when something feels heavy, it's easy to keep putting it off. The Relaxed program requires only 10-15 minutes a day. That makes it far --- [id 30 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Who is the QuitSure (Relaxed) program best suited for? A: The Relaxed program is a great fit if: - You have a busy schedule and can realistically dedicate only about 10-15 minutes a day to the program - You prefer a gradual, low-pressure approach rather than jumping in all at once - You've found it hard to commit to longer daily sessions in the past - You like the idea of easing into a smoke-free life naturally, at your own pace There's no "wrong" choice between the two programs - it really comes down --- [id 31 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Is 42 days a long time to commit to a program? A: I completely understand why it might sound like a long commitment! But here's the thing - each day only requires about 10-12 minutes of your time. That's less time than most people spend on a single cigarette break. When you think about it that way, it's actually a very small daily investment for something as life-changing as becoming smoke-free. And because the daily sessions are so short, most people find it fits effortlessly into their routin --- [id 32 | programs:all | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: What kind of content will I receive each day? A: Each day's session is designed to be engaging and practical. Here's what you can expect: - Short video/text sessions that explain key concepts about how smoking addiction really works - things that will genuinely surprise you - Journaling exercises to help you reflect and connect the concepts to your own experience - Practical exercises to help you handle real-life situations like stress, social settings, and cravings - Subconscious mind exercis --- [id 33 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: How long is the program in total? A: The full journey has two parts: 1. The main program: 42 days - this is where you'll go through the content, do the exercises, and work toward your quit day on Day 42. 2. The Stay Free (post-quit) program: 30 days after you quit - this provides ongoing support, tools, and guidance to help you stay smoke-free during that crucial first month. The post-quit program is included in your subscription - there's nothing extra to purchase. So you'll have --- [id 34 | programs:all | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: How much time does each day's session take? A: Each day includes approximately 10-12 minutes of guided content, followed by a couple of short exercises. All in all, you're looking at about 15 minutes on most days. It's intentionally designed to be short and manageable so it fits easily into your daily routine - no matter how busy your day is. --- [id 35 | programs:all | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: How does the quitsure program work? ( do we tell them in short about both original and relaxed program?) A: QuitSure helps you quit smoking by changing how you think and feel about smoking - so quitting feels natural, not forced. We offer two programs with the same core approach: QuitSure (Original): An intensive 6-day program requiring 60-90 minutes per day. You go through the material quickly and quit at the end of Day 6. Best for people who can dedicate focused time and want fast results. QuitSure (Relaxed): A gradual 42-day program requiring jus --- [id 36 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: I have a specific smoking deception/trigger/behavior I want to address, but I'm only on Day 1/2/3 of the Relaxed program. A: I totally understand the eagerness to tackle this right away - it shows great self-awareness that you've already identified it! Here's the thing: the program is structured in a very deliberate sequence. In the first few days, we're building your foundation - helping you understand how the trap works, why willpower fails, and how your brain got wired this way. This foundation is essential before we start dismantling specific deceptions and trigge --- [id 37 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: How will this program(relaxed) help me to quit smoking ? A: Great question! Here's how QuitSure works in a nutshell: Most quit methods ask you to resist cravings using willpower. That's why they fail 96% of the time - you're fighting a battle you can't win long-term. QuitSure takes a completely different approach. Instead of fighting cravings, we remove the desire to smoke altogether. Here's how: Weeks 1-2: You'll understand exactly how nicotine hijacked your brain and why you feel the way you do about --- [id 38 | programs:all | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: I only smoke in particular situations. How to remove these deceptions ? A: What you're describing are situational triggers - specific moments your brain has linked to smoking through years of repetition (Pavlovian conditioning). Coffee + cigarette. Driving + cigarette. After meals + cigarette. Your brain made these connections through thousands of repetitions, and now it feels like those situations "need" a cigarette. But here's the truth: the situation never provided anything. The cigarette only ever removed the urge --- [id 39 | programs:all | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Smoking helps me with constipation. How to break this deception ? A: This is one of the most common concerns, so let me address it directly. Here's what's actually happening: nicotine is a stimulant that speeds up gut motility (bowel movement). Over time, your body became dependent on that stimulant for its morning routine. When you remove the nicotine, your digestive system needs a short adjustment period to remember how to work on its own - which it absolutely will. This is NOT a reason to keep smoking. It's a --- [id 40 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Do I need to complete a session every day for 42 days? A: The program is structured as a daily journey over 42 days, and for the best results, I'd recommend following the daily schedule as closely as you can. Consistency really helps the concepts sink in and build on each other. That said, life happens! If you miss a day or two, don't stress about it. Just pick up from where you left off and keep moving forward. The important thing is not to let a small gap turn into a long one. --- [id 41 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Do I have to stop smoking when I start the program? A: No, not at all! In fact, the program specifically tells you to keep smoking as you normally would. There's no pressure to cut down or quit at any point during the program. The whole approach is about gradually changing your mindset and your relationship with smoking. As that shift happens naturally over the weeks, you'll find your desire to smoke starts reducing on its own - without any force or willpower. You'll be guided through a proper quitt --- [id 42 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: I have already stopped smoking. Can I start the QuitSure (Relaxed) program? A: Since you've already stopped smoking, the Relaxed program wouldn't be the best fit for you. It's designed for people who are currently smoking, because much of the program involves observing and reflecting on your own smoking behavior as you go through the content. I'd recommend the QuitSure (Original) program instead - it's better suited for your situation and will equip you with the tools and mindset to stay smoke-free long-term. Would you lik --- [id 43 | programs:all | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Do I have to reduce my smoking during the program? A: No, you absolutely don't have to force any reduction. In fact, we specifically ask you not to. The whole philosophy of the program is that forcing yourself to cut down creates deprivation and cravings - and that's exactly what we want to avoid. What most people experience is that after about 2-3 weeks, they naturally start wanting fewer cigarettes. It's not something you have to make happen - it happens on its own as the content starts shifting --- [id 44 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: What if I want to quit before Day 42? Can I finish early? A: I love the enthusiasm! It's great that you're feeling ready. However, the program is designed as a complete 6-week guided journey for a reason. Each week builds on the previous one, and the quitting ceremony on Day 42 is carefully timed so that you've gone through all the mental preparation needed for a lasting quit. If you're feeling a strong reduction in your desire to smoke, that's wonderful - it means the program is working! You can absolut --- [id 45 | programs:P3 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Can I complete multiple days at once? A: I understand the temptation to power through, but the program is designed the way it is for a specific reason. It's not just about reading the content - it's about giving your brain time to absorb each concept, relate it to your own experiences, and start building new thought patterns. That process happens between sessions, not just during them. Think of it like learning a musical instrument - you can't cram a month of practice into one day and --- [id 46 | programs:all | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Can I drink alcohol or go to social events while on the program? A: Yes, absolutely! There's no need to put your life on hold while you're on the program. You can continue your normal social life, including drinking and attending events. In fact, the program actually covers how to handle social situations and alcohol in the later stages (around Days 29-30), so you'll be well-prepared. If you do find that certain social situations make you smoke more than usual, don't worry about it - that's completely normal and --- [id 47 | programs:all | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Can I pause the program? A: Unfortunately, the program doesn't have a pause feature at the moment. It's designed as a continuous daily journey because consistency is really important for the mindset shifts to build on each other. If something comes up and you need to take a break, you can always pick up from where you left off when you're ready. If the gap is longer than a few days, I'd suggest spending a little time revisiting the previous days' content before moving forw --- [id 48 | programs:all | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Can I go back and review earlier days? A: Yes, you absolutely can! There are two easy ways to do this: 1. Use the arrow keys (on Home Page) within the app to navigate back to earlier sessions 2. Go to the Profile section where you can see all the days of the program on the top and jump to any specific day you'd like to revisit I'd actually encourage reviewing earlier content from time to time - especially if a concept felt particularly meaningful to you. Revisiting key insights can rei --- [id 49 | programs:all | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Will I get reminders or notifications for daily sessions? A: Yes! The app sends regular notifications to keep you on track. The notifications are smart - they adjust based on how you interact with the app, so they'll gently remind you when it's time for your daily session. If you're not receiving notifications, make sure they're enabled for the QuitSure app in your phone's settings. And if you need any help with that, just let me know! --- [id 50 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: What languages is the program available in? A: Currently, the QuitSure (Relaxed) program is available in English. We're always working on expanding our language support, but for now, English is the only option for this program. --- [id 53 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: My smoking has increased while doing the relaxed program, what do I do? A: First - don't panic, and please don't feel guilty about this. It happens, and it doesn't mean the program isn't working. Here's why it sometimes happens: as you become more aware of your smoking (which is exactly what the program is designed to do), some people initially smoke more because they're paying attention to every urge and responding to it. Others feel anxious about the process itself and smoke to manage that anxiety. Here's what's imp --- [id 54 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: I am on the 42 days program, but mindful smoking is making me disgusted and I want to quit now. What should I do? A: That's actually a really positive sign! It means the program is working - your conscious mind is starting to see smoking for what it really is, and your body is confirming it. However, I'd encourage you to stay the course and complete the full program rather than quitting early. Here's why: The disgust you feel right now is real, but it's not yet a complete mindset shift. The program still has important work to do: Dismantling all remaining de --- [id 55 | programs:all | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: I am a chain smoker, how many times a day should I smoke mindfully? A: Great question! Regardless of how many cigarettes you smoke per day, the recommendation is the same: Smoke 1-2 cigarettes mindfully per day. That's all you need. The rest of your cigarettes, you can smoke normally. The key is quality of attention, not quantity. One fully mindful cigarette - where you really pay attention to the taste, smell, throat sensation, and how your body actually feels - teaches your subconscious more than 20 smoked on au --- [id 56 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Is the QuitSure (Relaxed) program included in my existing QuitSure subscription? A: The QuitSure (Relaxed) program is a separate program with its own subscription. If you're currently subscribed to the QuitSure (Original) program, you would need a separate subscription to access the Relaxed program. If you'd like to switch, I can guide you through the process - just let me know! --- [id 57 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: What is the price of the program? A: The QuitSure (Relaxed) program is priced at $25 per month. When you think about what you spend on cigarettes each month - most people spend anywhere from $150 to $400+ depending on where they live - the program is a fraction of that cost. It's an investment in your health that actually saves you money from the very first month. --- [id 58 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Is there a post-quit program after the Relaxed program? Do I need to purchase it separately? A: Yes, there is a 30-day Stay Free (post-quit) program that begins right after you complete Day 42. And the great news is - you don't need to purchase it separately! It's a continuation of your Relaxed program journey and is fully covered under your existing subscription. The post-quit program provides ongoing support, new tools, and guidance to help you navigate life as a non-smoker during that important first month. So you'll have continuous sup --- [id 59 | programs:all | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: If my subscription expires during the program, what happens? A: Your access to the program content continues as long as your subscription is active. If your subscription expires before you've completed the program, you would need to renew it to continue accessing the remaining sessions. This also applies to coaching support - you'll have access to me and the coaching team for as long as your subscription is active. So I'd recommend making sure your subscription stays current until you've completed the full p --- [id 60 | programs:all | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: What features remain available once my subscription has expired? A: Once your subscription expires, your access to the modules will be automatically blocked. All your completed journals and the exercises that were already unlocked are accessible in Toolkit tab, even after your subscription is over. Even those exercises which were unlocked but not completed are accessible. --- [id 61 | programs:all | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: I saw a weekly subscription option when I downloaded the app. Now I can't see it. How do I go back to that screen? A: I understand the frustration! That weekly subscription option was a special introductory offer that was available only during the onboarding process, for a limited time window (as shown on the screen at that time). Unfortunately, once that window has passed, it's no longer available. The standard subscription options are what you'll see now. I'm sorry about the confusion - if you have any other questions about the available plans, I'm happy to h --- [id 62 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: I can't afford the weekly/monthly subscription. Can I get a discount or free access? A: I completely understand that cost is a consideration, and I appreciate you being upfront about it. The QuitSure (Relaxed) program is already our most affordably priced option. To put it in perspective: - Nicotine patches/gum: $150-300+ for a full course, with only a 4-6% long-term success rate - Prescription medications (Chantix/Champix): $300-500+ with potential side effects - Hypnotherapy sessions: $200-600+ per session, often requiring multi --- [id 63 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: I switched from the Original Program to the Relaxed Program, but it seems that the total amount I have paid overall is higher. Could you please help me understand why I ended up paying more after switching programs? A: I understand your concern about the pricing difference, and I appreciate you raising it. You're right that the Relaxed program subscription over 2 months may come to slightly more than a single month on the Original program. Here's the way to think about it: The Relaxed program gives you 42 days of structured, daily content (vs. 6 days) It requires only 10-15 minutes of your day (vs. 60-90 minutes) Both include the full Stay Free post-quit prog --- [id 64 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Can I switch from QuitSure (Original) to the QuitSure (Relaxed) program? A: Absolutely, we can help you with that! If you'd like to switch from the Original to the Relaxed program, here's what you need to know: - We'll set you up on the Relaxed program for the remaining period of your currently active subscription - You would start from Day 1 of the Relaxed program, since the content and structure are different Just let me know and I'll get the switch started for you. --- [id 65 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Can I switch from QuitSure (Relaxed) to the QuitSure (Original) program? A: If you're within the first 10 days of the Relaxed program, yes - we can help you make that switch. If you're further along in the program, I'd honestly recommend continuing with the Relaxed program rather than switching midway. Here's why: the two programs are structured quite differently, and switching partway through can be confusing. There's overlap in some content, but the sequence and pacing are different, so you might miss important concep --- [id 66 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: I didn't get a chance to choose my program. I was automatically placed in the Relaxed program (or the Original program). Why? A: Good question! During the onboarding process, the app asks you a series of questions about your smoking patterns, habits, and lifestyle. Based on your answers, the system recommends and presents the program that's most likely to work well for you. So the program you were placed in was selected based on your specific profile - it wasn't random! That said, if you feel the other program would be a better fit for you, we can absolutely help you swi --- [id 67 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: I'm on the QuitSure (Original) program but I'm unable to find time to dedicate 1 hours daily. What should I do? A: I completely understand - life is busy, and committing 1+ hours a day is genuinely difficult for a lot of people. The good news is that the QuitSure (Relaxed) program was designed exactly for this situation. The Relaxed program covers the same core content but only requires about 10-15 minutes a day, spread over 42 days. It's much easier to fit into a packed schedule, and the results are equally effective. Would you like me to help you switch t --- [id 68 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: How do I start the 42-day program? A: Getting started is simple! Here's what to do: 1. Subscribe to the QuitSure (Relaxed) program through the app 2. Once subscribed, the app will guide you through your first day's session right away 3. Each day, just open the app and follow that day's content (about 10 minutes of reading/watching) and do the exercises 4. Continue smoking as you normally would - no pressure to change anything 5. The program will guide you naturally toward Day 42, wh --- [id 69 | programs:all | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: What if I had a gap during the program? A: Don't worry - a gap doesn't mean you've lost your progress! Here's what I'd suggest: Short gap (approx 2-4 days): Just pick up right where you left off. The content will still make sense, and you'll be back in the flow quickly. Longer gap (a week or more): Before moving forward, I'd recommend spending some time revisiting the earlier days to refresh your memory on the key concepts. You don't need to redo every exercise - just re-read the main c --- [id 70 | programs:all | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: Why does the Relaxed program encourage natural reduction, but the Original program doesn't? A: Great observation - and there's a really important reason for this difference. Both programs work on the same core principle: changing your mindset so that your desire to smoke genuinely fades away. The key idea in both programs is that you should never fight cravings, because fighting them actually makes them stronger. With the Original program (6 days): The content takes about 3-4 days to start shifting your thinking. In a 6-day program, ther --- [id 71 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: How effective is the Relaxed program compared to the Original program? A: The effectiveness is the same - as long as you complete the program. Both programs use the same proven psychology, the same core content, and the same approach to removing your desire to smoke. The science behind them is identical. The main difference is really just the pace and daily time commitment. The key factor in success isn't which program you choose - it's whether you complete it fully. That's why it's so important to pick the program th --- [id 72 | programs:all | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: I completed the program but couldn't quit. Will I get a refund? A: First of all, I want you to know that it's okay. Quitting is a journey, and sometimes it takes more than one attempt. The fact that you completed the entire program shows real dedication. Regarding a refund - yes, you are eligible for a full refund if: - You have completed the program in its entirety - You request the refund within 60 days Please go ahead and submit your refund request, and we'll process it for you. And if you'd like to talk ab --- [id 73 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: I have relapsed after doing the QuitSure (Original) program. Should I try the Relaxed program? A: First, please don't be too hard on yourself. Relapse doesn't erase the progress you made or the things you learned. Yes, the Relaxed program can be a great next step after a relapse with the Original program. Here's why: - You already have a foundation of knowledge from the Original program - The Relaxed program gives you 42 days to rebuild and deepen that understanding at a gentler pace - The gradual approach means there's no sudden, dramatic --- [id 74 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: I have previously tried the Original program multiple times (3+ times). Will the Relaxed program help me? A: I really appreciate your persistence - the fact that you keep trying shows how much you want this. That matters. However, after multiple attempts with our programs, I want to be honest with you rather than just telling you what you might want to hear. At this point, I'd actually recommend exploring a different approach altogether. Sometimes a different method - whether it's in-person therapy, a support group, or a clinical program - can provide --- [id 75 | programs:P9 | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: I relapsed after the Original program, then did the Relaxed program, and relapsed again. What should I do? A: I hear you, and I know this must be incredibly frustrating. Please know that your persistence says a lot about your determination. Here's what I'd recommend: go through the QuitSure (Original) program one more time, followed by the complete post-quit program. Here's the reasoning: - You now have a much deeper understanding of how addiction works from having gone through both programs - The Original program's intensive format, combined with ever --- [id 76 | programs:all | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: I am getting cravings post completing the program. How do I deal with this ? A: First, thank you for reaching out - this is exactly what I'm here for. Cravings after quitting are driven by remaining deceptions - false beliefs that still have some grip on your mind. A craving isn't a physical need; it's your mind telling you a story about why you "need" a cigarette. Here's what I'd like you to do: Identify the deception: When the craving hits, ask yourself: "What am I believing right now?" Is it "I need this to relax"? "Th --- [id 77 | programs:all | src:LTP Shortcuts | platform:all] Q: I am getting urge post completing the program. How do I deal with this ? A: This is completely normal and it's important to know: urges are different from cravings. An urge is a mild physical sensation - a slight restlessness, a subtle pull. It's your body's old nicotine receptors sending a faint signal. It's not intense, and it passes quickly (usually within 3-5 minutes). A craving is intense psychological desire driven by a false belief. If what you're experiencing is mild and physical, it's just an urge.

A: On Quitsure, each program is set up to work on its own. So yes, you technically can do several program at the same time. However, even though they're separate, I'd really recommend focusing on just one program and do it. By doing that, you can dive deep into it and get all the benefits. Remember, each program's progress and subscription are separate. So, think about what's best for you and maybe start with the one that resonates most.

A: If you have doubt on your ability to be succesful in the program, then remember that almost all smokers have one thing in common- "they smoke nicotine filled cigarettes. Multiple times a day. Everyday." They all have similar thought patterns and beliefs. So you are not a "special smoker" and it is not "extra difficult" for you to quit.

A: Smoking increases carbon monoxide in the blood, making it tougher for oxygen to circulate, leading to breathing challenges. Normally, a couple of hours after your last cigarette, these levels start to drop, making it easier to breathe. But if you're experiencing the opposite, there might be other factors at play.

A: A small fraction of app users start smoking more during the program thinking 'I will quit in a few days anyway, so let me enjoy the last few cigarettes to the fullest'. It is similar to people binge eating before going on a diet.' This is one of the mind's tricks. It is happening because the subconscious mind is feeling that there will be absence of nicotine so let's store it by consuming extra. It is trying to compensate for the future.

Is that right? --- [id 175 | programs:all | src:Final shortcut sheet | platform:all] Q: Why do I still get urge even after finishing several days of the programme? A: You're feeling the urge to smoke mainly because of the nicotine that's still active in your body. Every time the amount of nicotine starts to lower, your brain signals that it wants more, making you feel the urge.

How to break this deception ? A: I can understand that it is a tricky situation. This is a trick deliberately created by tobacco companies to trick us. The truth is that if we add enough artificial flavour and taste and colour to any substance (even dried dead insect’s powder), we can be deceived to believe that it is a delicacy. It is because the added flavour masks the taste and smell of tobacco. But fortunately, we have our own brains and we can observe the truth.

So here is what you can do instead, when you're about to chew or dip, pay close attention to how it tastes and feels in your mouth before, during, and after.

That's the same idea as the "hypothetical puff" for smokers. --- [id 320 | programs:all | src:New queries | platform:all] Q: Why do we smoke on auto-pilot, and how can I stop? A: When we do anything repeatedly, our brain makes it a subconscious activity, to save energy. It's just like driving a car, you don't think about every move, you just do it. Same goes for smoking. But here's the good news, you can unlearn this automatic habit too by bringing smoking back to your conscious mind. Start paying attention when you smoke, notice the taste, smell, your feelings.

A: While it's true that eating is satisfying and does cause the release of dopamine, nicotine has somewhat hijacked our brain's reward system. Imagine the dopamine in your brain is like a party and all the guests are dopamine molecules. Now, nicotine has come in and reserved a bunch of seats. So even after you've had a nice meal, which sends a bunch of happy dopamine guests to the party, there are still seats left empty.

A: The amount of nicotine found in vegetables or other such products is quite small, it's almost insignificant. So, it doesn't have the same impact on your brain as smoking a cigarette does. Cigarettes are designed to deliver a large amount of nicotine directly to your brain - that's what causes the addiction. Natural nicotine sources like vegetables would never have that kind of effect.

A: Mindful smoking is about bringing awareness to the act of smoking. It's possible that you're not noticing differences yet because you're either not fully focusing on the taste and smell or you've become so accustomed to them. Regardless, once you quit smoking, your senses will readjust to their non-smoker's level and you'll likely find the taste and smell unpleasant.

A: Yes, it is normal to experience different sensations and feelings throughout the process, especially as your awareness around smoking increases. These sensations can vary from person to person.

As you've continued to smoke mindfully, it might have become a more routine activity and less interesting, so you're finding it harder to focus. I encourage you to persist with the practice.

A: Often, we create associations between certain activities or events and smoking. In your case, the sensation of smoking while it's raining has become an ingrained habit.

How to break this deception ? A: Yes, it's a common misconception that smoking helps with feelings of loneliness and emptiness. But the truth is that smoking doesn't fill the emptiness or alleviate loneliness. It only temporarily distracts you from those feelings.

The belief that smoke entering your lungs feels good is largely the result of nicotine addiction. When you smoke, nicotine reaches your brain and triggers the release of dopamine, which is associated with feelings of pleasure and reward.

However, the idea that smoking is needed to occupy your hands is a misconception.

A: the belief that smoking calms your anger or aids in expressing it is indeed a deception. This notion might have been conditioned over time due to associating the act of smoking with the state of anger. Smoking doesn't have any actual physiological effect on anger, it's merely a psychological crutch.

A: The belief that smoking helps you sleep is a deception. This is because nicotine is actually a stimulant, which means it wakes you up, not puts you to sleep. However, you might have conditioned your mind to associate smoking with sleeping. You believe that a cigarette before bed helps you sleep. But in reality, if you don't smoke before sleeping, your mind will keep thinking that you can't sleep because you didn't smoke.

How to break this deception ? A: The notion that smoking helps you lose weight comes from a misunderstanding. The urge to smoke and hunger can indeed feel similar. When you feel an urge to smoke, you might confuse it with feeling hungry. But instead of reaching for food, you reach for a cigarette, thereby suppressing what you think is hunger.

A: The idea that smoking helps numb emotions is indeed a deception. The nicotine in cigarettes does give you a temporary euphoric feeling, but it's short-lived. What actually happens is that smoking provides a temporary distraction from your feelings, rather than addressing or numbing them.

What’s actually happening is that when you smoke, you’re not really reducing hunger; you’re just distracting your brain with a dopamine hit that temporarily masks the feeling.
