8. Shen Men- to Quit Smoking

Acupressure and acupuncture can also help in getting rid of an addiction. An

auricular point called Shen Men can make it easier for you to quit smoking,
especially when used in conjunction with other points.

Plus, it helps relieve stress, anxiety, depression, insomnia and inflammatory

diseases. It is similar to the heart meridian point HT 7 but has a wider range of
therapeutic benefits.

It is believed that ear acupuncture helps you quit smoking by making the taste of
cigarettes less desirable. It is advisable to use acupressure and acupuncture as
an adjunct to your substance abuse treatment plan.

The Shen Menpoint is located on the upper half of the ear, above the apex of the
triangular fossa. Place your index finger on this point and your thumb behind the
ear on the same point. Massage it by applying firm pressure. Do this a few times
daily until you are satisfied with the results.

Use it in conjunction with other points like Tim Mee, Broken Sequence,
Sympathetic Autonomic Point and others. For best results, it is recommended to
have the treatment done by a qualified professional.
