Smoking Cessation

Smoking is a habit! There are many factors that make a person addicted to smoking. As with any habit the repetition of an action creates a new neural pathway in your brain. This new neural pathway creates an association within your subconscious mind with smoking and feeling relaxed. Consciously, you do not like the taste, smell or even being a smoker and you know the health hazards of smoking, so you decide to quit smoking. However, you keep going back to it because your subconscious mind always dominates your willpower which comes from your conscious mind.

As with any other habit and behavior, through hypnotherapy you are able to dig deep into your subconscious mind and replace the old association you’ve created with smoking using new associations. Therefore the negative programming in your subconscious mind will not control you and you will learn how to become relaxed, feel calm and in control by learning how to control your thoughts and desensitizing to old associations.

Fear is the number one reason people keep giving in to their negative habits and behaviors!

The most common fears that prevent people from quitting smoking are:

• Fear of gaining weight
• Fear of losing friends
• Fear of not being able to enjoy social gatherings
• Fear of losing your companion and your pleasure
• Fear of smoking again and not be able to sustain being a non-smoker
• Fear of feeling withdrawal symptoms

All of the above fears are created by your mind because of the associations you have created with smoking. No matter how much you experience the negative effects of smoking and become aware of the health hazards associated with smoking, your fears make you surrender to this killer habit.

This is what makes quitting smoking so difficult for most people. Many smokers would rather not even think about quitting because their fear is very severe. You may have tried patches, nicotine gums, different programs and therapies, even hypnosis. The keys to success are your true willingness and desire to quit and a complete program to cover all angles from physical, physiological, psychological and emotional standpoint. My program will cover all of these aspects and will help you reach your goal to become a non-smoker.
