Quit Smoking Through Hypnotherapy
Smoking is one of the most dangerous vices and diseases caused by it are growing. By hypnosis, it is easier to quit smoking than you have ever thought. Perhaps you have heard about some people who gave up smoking 10 years ago and still say, “Whenever I have a beer with my friends, I want to smoke a cigarette.” However, that means that they have stopped smoking only at the conscious level. They have decided to stop and they have even stopped for a while. Nevertheless, at the subconscious level, smoking is still an attractive alternative for them.
There is a clear difference between a smoker who has quit smoking and a non-smoker. The former smoker courageously resists the temptation to smoke a cigarette, while non-smokers cannot think of anything worse than smoking. In other word, if you want to leave permanently smoking, that is to become truly a non-smoker, you should act at the level of your subconscious mind. Do you want rather to become a former smoker who sometimes longs for cigarettes, or a non-smoker who no longer thinks about them?
There are many people just waiting to give you advice, to teach you different methods or tricks to help you quit smoking. However, all these ignore a vital component of addiction – the subconscious mind. That is why most of the people who have tried to stop smoking, in most of the cases, they have not succeeded.
Contrary to the belief that physical addiction makes giving up smoking a very difficult goal to reach, it is known that 90% of addicts are of psychological nature. In addition, nicotine is a mental addiction that must be taken seriously. It has been found that nicotine addiction at psychological level is harder fought than dependencies of cocaine or heroin.
If you have tried to give up smoking and you have not succeeded, you know how hard is to fight this addiction. Just the thought of giving up smoking makes many smokers become suddenly annoyed and irritable.
Hypnosis is the most effective way to program your subconscious mind to overcome nicotine addiction in a safe and natural way, without any dangerous side effects. If you are tired of your friends teasing you, of the high cost of cigarettes and the time lost smoking, and if you are concerned about health risks related to smoking, these lines may help you smoke the last cigarette of your life. If indeed you want to quit, hypnosis is the support you need.
Now you can use an appropriate program to help you quit smoking and the desire to smoke. You will no longer be controlled by the habit of smoking. You will not need to plan your time depending on cigarette breaks, you will not need to leave your work place or a party, and you will not worry any more if you have or not enough cigarettes left.
Smoking is a very strong addiction and requires incredible strength of mind and the will to stop it. If you are in the position to want to get rid of cigarettes finally, but do not succeed, then hypnosis may be the most effective method that can definitely help you.

some questions about quitting smoking using hypnosis hypnotherapy?
1. I’ve heard of some who go through one private session and never smoke again. I found one local therapist who does it, but at 5-8 sessions. Why would you need so many sessions?
2. Of course I want to quit smoking but the "want" is not there in my head (smokers should understand my meaning) If I am not mentally prepared, if the "want" is not there in my head, will hypnosis still be beneficial to quit smoking?
i dont belive in that.. its really all up to you… how bad do you really want to stop smoking..

Hello Misty
As a hypnotherapist myself you have more chance of gaining your dream to be a non smoker with sessions, rather than a one off. One off’s can tend to fail for most as it does not always address all of the aspects that the individual has that keep them a smoker.
Hypnosis & NLP can help you to create that ‘want’.
I hope that you get on well with your chosen therapist & become a happy, healthy non smoker as a result – good luck.

I have read that hypnosis is a great aid to quitting smoking. Tried it. It didn’t work for me. Then I did a little reading on the subject, and it seems that some people are not as impressionable to hypnotic treatments as others. So it works for some, but not for all. As for just one treatment, no. It takes multiple treatments if it is going to work for you.
As for the ‘want’…it’s a necessary part of the quitting process. To reinforce the ‘want’, make a list of all the reasons for quitting. Make copies of that list and post them in every area of your home that you smoke in. Make a small print copy to keep with you when you are away from home. Use the list as needed to keep those reasons fresh in your mind.
The decision to quit is not a one time event, which is why it can be so difficult. Every time you get the urge to light up, you have to make the decision to skip that cigarette. It wasn’t your first cigarette that got you hooked, it was all the successive cigarettes you smoked that created the habit and the addiction. Likewise, it won’t be the first cigarette you say ‘no’ to that will make you an ex-smoker, it’s all the successive cigarettes you skip that slowly changes the habit and dissolves your body’s dependency.
Smoking cessation is a challenge, but it is do-able. There are lots of ‘quit smoking’ websites that offer great suggestions as well as support.
