People have asked me this question for years and the answer is a resounding yes! And, finally, there’s a book for that. William Porter, author of Alcohol Explained, and I have joined forces to bring you This Naked Mind: Nicotine - We have combined our proven, habit-breaking systems that have helped thousands overcome alcohol to now help people quit smoking and vaping.
