The difference between cold and smart turkey is night and day. Why endure quitting symptoms that can be minimized or eliminated? Why fear coming home to a calm and quiet mind that goes, days, weeks and eventually, possibly even months and years without once wanting or craving cigarettes?

Joel's Library - Imagine not only having your very own quitting coach but one who has devoted his entire worklife - nearly 40 years - full-time to helping smokers quit. Imagine more than 160 videos like the one below, helping make you vastly more dependency recovery savvy than your addiction is strong.

Turkeyville - Do you enjoy Facebook? Home to 13,000+ members, Turkeyville is a Facebook quit smoking support group dedicated to transforming new cold turkey quitters into smart turkeys.

Turkeyville is a deadly serious and highly focused support group. How serious? Only members who have stopped using all nicotine and are quitting cold turkey may post to the group. Any relapse, even a puff, terminates group posting privileges. Yes, Turkeyville is the one support group on earth where nicotine has no voice.

Explore both sites and discover why knowledge isn't just power but a quitting method. Why not give smart turkey a try? Baby steps, just one hour, challenge and day at a time, yes you can!
