Product Description
Tens of millions of people smoke cannabis every day, it would be unrealistic to think that nobody has problems when they try to quit or simply want to take a break for a while. One reason cannabis is such a popular drug is that it is incredibly versatile. Most users say they smoke to relax; others accept that it simply makes life less boring or helps them sleep. Another reason for cannabis's popularity is simply its addictive nature. This is despite the fact many users believe it to be non-habit forming, until they themselves try and quit. This book is designed to let you consider your relationship with weed openly and honestly. For the first time, here is a book that offers a real understanding of how cannabis interacts with all areas of life - from sleep, work and relaxation to our emotions, our senses, and our creativity, as well as our relationships. Using his own experience - and that of other people that he has worked with - James Langton offers a step-by-step guide to letting go of cannabis dependency, through the adjustment period and into recovery, helping you make the most of this positive life change and move forward to a place where you can clearly see that there really is No Need for Weed.
From the Back Cover
No Need For Weed is designed to let you consider your relationship with cannabis openly and honestly. It would be unrealistic to think that as tens of millions of people use it everyday, nobody has problems with dependency.
For the first time here is a book that offers a real understanding of how cannabis impacts on all areas of life -from sleep,work,and relaxation as well as upon our senses, our emotions, energy, and creativity and crucially our relationship with ourselves and others.
One reason cannabis is such a popular drug is that it is incredibly versitile. Some users say they smoke to relax and others that it simply makes life boring or helps them sleep. Many more argue passionately for its medicinal value. Another reason for cannabis's popularity is clearly its addictive nature. This is despite the fact that many users believe it to be non-habit forming, something they insist upon until they themselves attempt to quit, or even take a break for a while.
Drawing upon his own experiences and those of others he has worked with through the clearhead workshops and support website, James Langton offers a step-by-step guide to letting go of cannabis dependency. This book lets you confront where you are, guides you through the adjustment period and into successful recovery. It helps you make the most of this positive life change and moves you forward to a place where you clearly see there really is No Need For Weed!

Format:Paperback
I read this book after deciding that smoking cannabis for over 16 years was becoming a problem for me and holding me back.
I do not read many books but have read this from start to finish in 2 weeks. I will re-read the book. It makes great reading and I have quit cannabis with the help of this book.
The book is written in a clear way and is easy to read and understand.
It goes into great detail as to why people smoke cannabis, with out preaching or being too negative about the evil weed. You read the book and then can make up your own mind.
I have not smoked for 2 weeks today, and thats after smoking daily for over 16 years. For me its a major achievement. The book goes into detail on what happens at all the stages, from being stoned to being clear headed. It explains what feelings you may experience when quitting, from those night sweats to the dreams that will come back your way.
For me, its got to be the most helpful book I have ever read. I also downloaded the Hypnotherapy MP3 from Clearhead which is also very helpful.
This has got to be the best £10 I have ever spent.

NNFW was there when I had almost given up searching for a book to speak to my addiction to Skunk with reason and empathy. I bought this and the CD that goes along with it and as a result have now been clean six months..... after a decade plus addiction.
An insightful and user friendly book packed with ideas on how to beat the dreaded dependency and move forward in realistic terms.
I have recommended it to many people who have had excellent results.

Format:Paperback
Quite simply the best book ever written on this often misunderstood subject. The author had a self-confessed 30 year cannabis addiction so he really knows what he is talking about. Those of us who end up smoking every day, often on our own, feel like there is no real help out there from drug treatment places or the NHS for cannabis addiction so there is nowhere to go for help and no-one to understand how trapped, hopeless and depressed this addiction can make us feel. When you read the book you will feel more understood than you ever have in your whole life and feel like some of the pages have come from your own mouth. It is intelligent and thoughtful and not saying in any way that cannabis is evil - it isn't, it is just that those of us who end up trapped and isolated and smoking every day can feel there is no way out. If that sounds familiar then it will be the best £10 you have ever spent.
There is also a website attached to the book, Clearhead, and this gives us the chance to post our feelings surrounding this difficult subject and get helpful advice, brilliant support and a clear perspective from others who are experiencing the same journey. I have felt for 14 years that I was unable to give up and as a result felt hopeless and very depressed. The book and website have both played a huge part in me finally being able to quit. I can't recommend it highly enough. If there was 100 stars on this review I would give it 100.

A measured approach
A measured, really constructive approach to giving up weed. Clearly analyses the withdrawal process and helps you in the short and long-terms.

A Good Self Help Book
If you've got to the stage where cannabis is giving you more grief than fun this is the book for you. Don't laugh at the CD either - a bit of subliminal messaging can help.
