Stopping Smoking

fag ends - end of fags

Want to quit?

If you're one of the many smokers who would really like to quit smoking but feel that they haven't enough willpower, then Hypnotherapy may very well be the answer for you.

Most smokers are now aware of the health risks involved and yet they continue to smoke........  Many smokers reach the stage where they actually dislike the habit and yet still carry on smoking even though they may feel as if the tobacco is controlling their lives..........  Why is this?

Struggling?

Well, its because the smoking habit, the desire to smoke, resides in a part of the mind that is, in our normal daily lives, out of reach - the unconscious mind. The unconscious (or sub-conscious) mind is a part of our minds that we are not usually aware of and, under normal circumstances find it difficult to change.

That's why quitting the habit using willpower or sheer determination alone usually seems like a daily battle, from getting up in the morning to going to bed at night. Frankly it is a battle, a battle between your conscious desire to quit and the unconscious drive to smoke, its frustrating and tiring. People quite often give up the fight because they are too emotionally exhausted to carry on.

Try the easy way

Luckily Hypnosis can enable people to tap into their unconscious minds and help them to affect the changes that they want and even use the power that their unconscious minds have over their behaviour to help them to be non-smokers instead of smokers.

So, instead of having to fight to quit on a daily basis you can choose not to smoke without the pain you may have associated with that choice in the past.

Is that worth 2 hours of your time and the price of two or three weeks ciggies?

As an ex-smoker myself I know how difficult it can be to stop using willpower alone. I also know that using Hypnotherapy can make it easy and not just for you but also for the people around you. How do I know that? Because not only did I become a non-smoker using this method, but successful clients also tell me so.

In fact a large study carried out in the USA and reported in the New Scientist (vol 136, issue 1845, Oct 1992) concluded that, "Hypnosis is the most effective way to stop smoking" and that Hypnosis was up to 3 times more effective than NRT (Nicotine Replacement Therapy - gum, patches etc.).

The only requirements are that you really want to stop smoking and that you are ready to stop on the day you book for your treatment.

The single 2 hour session is intensive and utilises many Hypnotherapeutic techniques along with elements of NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming), you enter as a smoker and leave as a non smoker.
