Hypnotherapy to help you stop smoking and start living

You already know that you need to take time to relax. You also know how relaxing deep breathing is. The only thing you need to do is get the mindset of someone who has never smoked, who takes time to relax and breathe without needing a cigarette to prompt them. You can easily transform the negative of smoking into a positive, by getting the full benefit of smoke-free breathing, making you calm, confident and relaxed.

Hypnotherapy puts you back in control of your own life, instead of being controlled by cigarettes. It helps you cope easily with any feelings of withdrawal, and generally increases your ability to deal with stress in a calm, relaxed way. This is particularly useful as people generally tend to have most trouble staying smoke-free when they experience stressful events or feelings.

The Stop Smoking Package

My stop smoking package costs £230 and involves three sessions to help you break the habit and start living smoke-free:

  • Session 1: remove and replace the habit with a positive, healthy response; reduce cravings
  • Session 2: learn how to manage stress and anger by developing a calm, confident response; avoid weight gain/other subsitute behaviour, if this is a concern
  • Session 3: increase confidence and determination/persistence, so that nothing and no-one can make you smoke again

How hypnotherapy can help you stop smoking

Hypnotherapy is a very effective way to stop smoking, and many people have used it successfully to make the change to enjoying life without smoking. It works because hypnotherapy relaxes your mind, allowing you to change the thoughts and habits that allow you to view smoking as somehow beneficial, and replace them with new thoughts and behaviours that support your goal of living well without smoking. The best results occur where the client is self-motivated and works in partnership with me towards achieving their goal.

A wide range of research has shown that hypnotherapy is the best way to stop smoking, both for the initial stages and the long term. For example, in 1992, the largest ever research project into stop smoking methods was undertaken at the University of Iowa, and it ranked hypnosis as the top way to stop smoking. Research results published in the Journal of Applied Psychology, which include 48 studies of hypnosis covering 6000 smokers, clearly showed that hypnosis was three times more effective than nicotine replacement therapy.

Having been a smoker for over 15 years, I knew it was going to be a challenge to give up, but I had to for health reasons, being seriously overweight and unfit as I hit the big 4-0. After our first session, I was really amazed at how smoking didn't seem to interest me anymore, and also that I didn't start overeat instead.
