Smoking cigarettes is, for many people, an introduction to hypnosis.
What do I mean by this?
If you are one of the many people who think that smoking is relaxing, you're already experiencing a smoking trance. We know the effects that cigarette smoke has on the body, such as increased heart rate and constricted blood vessels, but at the same time the mind is convinced that smoking is relaxing. Another thing that comes into play is the power of suggestion. Think of all the messages that told you smoking is relaxing, whether they were from friends or advertisements. So in a way you very well understand the energy the mind has over the body. Why not use this same energy to forget about smoking? Realize cigarettes are not your best friend.
During your hypnosis session it is good to define goals. For instance, you might imagine what it would be like to be smoke free. How would you feel? How would you imagine yourself in future situations?
It is good to understand how you started smoking. Were you inspired by media heroes, your peers, other family members? When you reflect, you can realize how the reason for smoking mutated over time into other areas of your life. For instance, it turned into a way to control weight, the ability to relax, to create social situations, or to reward yourself for a job well done. What a smoker forgets is that all of these results can be attained without smoking.
I find it all comes down to two things, habit and nicotine. With hypnosis you can break the habit and ease the effects of the nicotine as it leaves your system. You can reach the point that you have a deep feeling of "enough is enough" as opposed to a feeling that you are giving up something.
Feel free to call or email and I will be happy to discuss your particular situation and how you too can become smoke free.
