[I want to stop smoking!] When Joan walked in, she told me this. [Great! How long you have been smoking?] I asked.

[Well, since 11 years old!] She frowned. [OK. Why do you want to quit after … say… nearly 50 years?] I questioned her.

[My wife does not like it. I want to quit for her! I want to keep her!] She looked uncertain now. [Well, it is NOT a strong reason.] I pointed it out to her: [You have to do it for yourself! Otherwise, it won’t work!]

Joan sighed: [I know, I don’t like the smell too. My grandchildren want me to quit too!] [Then why do you keep smoking?] I was curious. [I like the feeling of smoking. My mind told me it is not good, but I just like the feeling.]

She was a woman with children and grandchildren, 20 years ago, she decided to change her gender identity. She is living with her wife in a nice country home, and hey have all future plans set. There is no stressor in her life now. Obviously, there is something unknown tied Joan down to the feeling of smoking.

So we went to visit her past lives. In one of her past lives, she was a man and her current wife was his wife. That explained the bonding relationship between Joan and her wife.

Her visit to another past life was: [ I am in my little wood cabin. I can see my Tabaco garden from my kitchen window. ]… {I guided her: ‘ Can you go to your Tabaco garden now?’ … [Yes!] … {I guided her: ‘You walked in the garden, what do you do?’ } … [I touch my Tabaco leaves, they look so fresh and green. I am going to have a big harvest.]

This explained her attachment to the cigarettes is rooted in one of her past lives as a Tabaco grower. Once we discovered the root, we then uprooted the cause and helped her to quit smoking.
