Hypnosis for Quitting Smoking
Clinical Hypnotherapists are all invested in ensuring you quit smokes for good. The addiction is deadly and we get an opportunity to help you quit that unwanted addiction but you need to take our advice literally. If we want to know if you’ve had a smoke after the session then tell us and if we want you to clear out the smoking paraphernalia before your session or move your ‘smoking chair’ then do it.
Quitting smoking is hard. Hypnosis for quitting smoking is easy, they say. Well is it? Is it really?
Does it work? How does it work? How do I know it’s going to work on Me? Do I have to pay if I can’t be hypnotised? How will I know I’m hypnotised? Should I be scared? .. I’m scared.
As a clinical Hypnotherapist with a nursing background, I do not work in absolutes. You do need to play your part in committing to quit smoking and for a reasonable number it will take more than 1 session.
It will cost you at least as much as your weekly smoking habit, after all we need to make sure you can’t afford to buy them the next week (just kidding).. but seriously, clinical Hypnotherapy is a skill and if you’ve done your research right you will find a well respected clinical Hypnotherapist to help you quit smokes.
Clinical Hypnotherapists are all invested in ensuring you quit smokes for good. The addiction is deadly and environmental exposures alongside nicotine addiction increase the complications of diseases such as Mesothelioma and lung cancers.

If any suggestions given prior to your appointment aren’t met its unlikely that your hypnotherapist will commence the session as these are all red flags for us. We need to know that you’ve knocked over as many skittles as possible before arriving on quit smoking day and not just arrived with your half a pack of 40’s in the car - just in case.
Hypnosis is divisive. It’s either one of those subjects that you’re either curious about or you’ll run a mile if it’s brought up in the tearoom.. yeah?

Yes! Is my first response, however, it comes with some further investigations from under our Hypnotherapist caps. We want to know whether you think it works? Why and who suggested it and whether their opinion is held in high regard.
Does it really work for smoking?
.. that is the first question I’m asked when people hear about my day job.

You see, we all have free will. Whether we are hypnotisable or not will make minimal difference if the purpose of smoking is providing a reward more significant to the person than simply quitting. Lifestyle habits, relationships and others opinions can create inner conflict and its effects may over-ride one’s better good at times. But never forget, every attempt is one step closer to the winning day as a non-smoker for good!
Are you ready to quit? To bring your plans and goals to the forefront of your daily, weekly and monthly plan?
Would you consider Hypnotherapy if you were certain one of several long-lasting changes could be installed such as never being able to consider having another cigarette ever again?
Perhaps you would rather not be drawn to the ‘draw-back sting’ at the back of your throat? Hypnotherapy can have the natural gag response to the smell, taste and sting at the throat enabling you to quit the cigarette with the support of anchors such as red traffic lights reminding your mind and body that you have quit and you’re committed to that change.
Or perhaps when you smell the carpet in a bar you are reminded of how unpleasant smoking is and you feel relieved as a non-smoker once again..
