How to Use the NeverSmoking Application
* Program Explanation
- Follow and copy the facial expressions in each stage and make sure you concentrate on the images and the messages provided.
- NeverSmoking relies on the natural and instinctual function of the human brain, which is facial expression recognition, to activates the mirror neurons.
- Thus, we encourage you to play the program in a place where there is minimum distraction to the visual images and where it is not too loud.
- The program itself does not have any sound effect in order to help the user concentrate on the visual expressions.
Use it when the urge to smoking emerge
- The urge of smoke signals that the smoking neurons have activated in the brain.
- The best time to remove the smoking neurons is when the synaptic connection of these smoking neurons starts firing and the blood flow in the brain increase.
- Until now, you perhaps didn’t have a choice but to tolerate when smoking urges appear. But now this powerful tool called NeverSmoking will help you to ultimately eradicate this smoking neuron in your brain.
- From now on, just start NeverSmoking whenever you feel like smoking, press the button and follow the steps provided.

How much do you crave cigarette?
- Choose your subjective level of smoking urge between the scales 1 to 10.
- 1~2 : Almost none
- 3~4 : Low
- 5~6 : Tolerable
- 7~8 : Somewhat hard to tolerate
- 9~10 : Impossible to tolerate
- This smoking urge scale is going to be used as the statistical data to show how the user performs over time. The program also automatically analyze the user’s urge as a basis to run the program.

From here, follow and copy the facial expressions as exact as possible!
Step 1 : Activation of mirror neurons (Make a disgusted face)
- Smoking-neurons have activated and makes you crave cigarette. The inhibiting emotional information should be associated with the smoking-neurons.
- As you mimic the disgusted faces, the brain automatically activates disgust affect through the mirror neurons and with the facial feedback, it reinforces the disgust affect.
- From now on, the screen will automatically skip to the next slide. Please follow the messages in the screen in a sincere manner.
* Make a disgusted face
1. pinch the nose
2. lower the eyebrows
3. pull your upper lips up

Step 2 : Removal of the smoking-neurons (Keep disgusted face expression)
- Removal of the smoking-neurons in the brain begins using brain science.
- Continue to follow and do as the facial expression icons on the screen. ( You can adjust the position and the size of the expression icons by dragging or clicking the icon.)
- For maximum effect, you should follow the faces and the messages in the most sincere manner. The brain can never lie to itself.
* Keep disgusted face expression

Step 3 : Emotion relaxation (thoracic respiration)
- After the smoking-neurons have been disconnected, user will go through an emotional relaxation stage.
- Relax your face and breathe deeply and slowly through your chest.
- The thoracic, along with your face, is a channel for emotions.
- As you breathe deeply with your chest, make sure you press or put your hand on the body(chest) part of the number designated.

Step 4 : Real reward stage (Make & Keep smiling face)
- The false reward system from nicotine is now replaced with real reward system using brain science.
- The genuine reward step will make the brain release genuine dopamine as you think of the real smiles, resting place and the people you like.
* Make and Keep smiling face
1. smiling eyes
2. pull up the corner of the lips

Final stage
- In the last step, you will check your body condition.
- If the following symptoms appear, it means you have successfully followed the previous steps.
(When your emotion responds properly, the body will also respond accordingly) - Feel like vomiting,
- Feel nauseous
- Throat feels soar,
- Stomach feels sick
- If none of the symptoms above appear, this means that you have either not properly followed the facial expressions or was not deeply immersed.

Etc.
