Why do you want to stop smoking?

There are many reasons you might want to stop smoking. These are just a few:

To save money To be healthier
  • smoking has a huge negative impact on your health, one of many reports can be found here
For your family
  • Damage to your children's blood vessels caused by smoking while you are pregnant is visible by the time they are five. See reports of this study here and here.
  • A recent survey (Dec 2011) showed that 73% of smokers' children were worried that their parents would die because of their smoking.
  • The same survey said that 69% of smokers had parents who smoked.  See the report here.
To look and feel younger
  • Smoking can make you look older: check out this slideshow and a number of reports cited here
  • Ladies who smoke have saggier breasts. See the report here.
  • Men who smoke 20 or more cigarettes per day have a greater chance of developing baldness. See the article here
To feel in control
  • Smokers who quit are happier. See report here.

However good your reasons to stop smoking are, you may find it difficult because, although the physical effects of your addiction to tobacco start to pass relatively quickly, the psychological part can linger. This is the part that hypnosis helps you to deal with.

Can you stop smoking with hypnotherapy?

Four steps to help you stay stopped!

  • Step One: effective preparation
    When you make your appointment I'll send you some suggestions about preparing to become a non smoker. You plan for any change in your life - moving house, changing jobs, even decorating the living room.  Stopping smoking is one of the biggest (and best) changes you can make, and careful preparation before the day is a must.

  • Step Two: your appointment, which will be around two hours.
    We'll spend about half of this chatting about you and your relationship with smoking, dealing with any worries you have about becoming a permanent non smoker and planning your hypnotherapy. During the other half we'll be working in hypnosis.

  • Step Three: you go home with a further selection of support material
    This includes two CDs, plus hints, tips and techniques that you can use after the session to help you with the transition to becoming a non smoker.

  • Step Four (if you need it): the 'safety net' session
    This is offered so that if, within 3 months, you return to smoking (or if you are tempted to return to it), become stressed, gain weight, or substitute another unhealthy habit for smoking, you can see me again at no further cost.
