Stop Smoking with Stoptober 2013 the Easy Way

Smokers in the UK are encouraged to stop smoking for 28 days in October 2013.  If you can stop for 28 days you are five times more likely to stop for good.

"During the Stoptober 2012 campaign, a staggering £25 million was saved by the 160,000 people from not buying cigarettes.
Chief Medical Officer Professor Dame Sally Davies said: “Half of all smokers die as a result of smoking, this is the single biggest cause of premature death taking more than 100,000 lives in the UK and costing the NHS up to £2.7bn each year.
It is estimated that you add an additional seven days of life for every 28 days you remain smokefree.  
“We want every smoker to consider making a quit attempt this October and join the thousands of people who are feeling the benefits from stopping smoking last year.” (1)

That is the good news but stopping smoking by willpower alone is hard, very hard.  The extremely addictive drug of nicotine does not give up easily as anyone who has tried to go "cold turkey" will tell you.

Nicotine replacement products might help kick the habit but they keep you addicted to nicotine.  I know someone who has been chewing Nicorette chewing gum for 15 years and the gum has been linked to oral cancer.

I encourage you to stop smoking in October but do it the easy way with safe, natural and effective hypnosis.

 “Hypnosis is the most effective way of giving up smoking, according to the largest ever scientific comparison of ways of breaking the habit. Willpower, it turns out, counts for very little”.  ~(New Scientist, Volume 136 issue 1845 31 Oct 1992, page 6)

The average smoker smokes a packet of 20 cigarettes per day at £7 so spends about £210 every month ...of net income.  Stop smoking with me and donate what you would have spent on smoking to a great charity.  I recommend Brainstrust which helps patients with brain tumours and their carers.

Hypnosis Effective at Helping People to Stop Smoking

Hypnosis is probably most famous for helping people to stop smoking, recently Matt Damon even testified to the benefits of quitting smoking; he told Jay Leno that he visited a hypnotist and it worked:

"I went to a hypnotist... It worked. I swear to god it worked. It was the greatest decision I ever made in my life!" - Matt Damon on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno

The research into this area of hypnotherapy is very solid, again it not only shows a massively increased success rate when using hypnosis to help you to stop smoking, but it points to hypnosis as the most effective form of smoking cessation therapy (with a higher success rate than nicotine patches / gum etc):

Hypnosis is the most effective way of giving up smoking

In 1992 the University of Iowa conducted a meta-analysis of studies using different methods to try and help people to quit smoking. This was the largest ever scientific comparison - looking at more than 600 studies which contained 72,000 people in total, from America and Europe. They found that on average, hypnosis was over three times as effective as nicotine patches or nicotine replacement methods and 15 times as effective as trying to quit alone, and concluded that hypnosis is by far the most effective way of giving up smoking.

90.6% Success rate when using hypnosis to stop smoking

The University of Washington medical school conducted a study where they used hypnosis on 43 patients to help them stop smoking. Of the 43 consecutive patients undergoing hypnosis, 39 reported remaining abstinent from tobacco use at follow-up (up to 3 years post-treatment). Barber concluded that hypnosis is an extremely effective way to quit smoking and this study represents a 90.6% success rate using hypnosis.

81% Stopped smoking after hypnosis

30 patients were referred by their doctor to Texas A&M University for treatment to help them stop smoking. Of this group 21 patients returned and were given 3 sessions of hypnosis for smoking cessation. Results showed that immediately after treatment 81% of patients reported that they had stopped smoking. Then in a followup 12 months later 48% of these patients reported that they were still not smoking. Elkins GR and Rajab MH concluded that hypnosis was indeed a statistically significant method of helping people to stop smoking.

Here is what one very satisfied client said:

"I was relaxed but consciously aware of my surroundings so I found it hard to believe that hypnosis would work after just one session. But I was very impressed. I thought it would be difficult but I found it relatively easy to stop smoking. I am not troubled by other people's smoking. I used to enjoy smoking but now I enjoy not smoking. I quickly found I can breathe more deeply and have noticed two other health improvements. After four weeks, I am still a motivated non-smoker." - James Benn, Brussels.

I want to help you become a healthy non-smoker. Join us.

Stop Smoking in One Session of Hypnosis

STOP SMOKING is the main reason people ask for hypnosis.

SUCCESS RATES of STOP SMOKING METHODS

95% of the clients who come to me stop smoking in one session of hypnosis.

"I was relaxed but consciously aware of my surroundings so I found it hard to believe that hypnosis would work after just one session. But I was very impressed.

I quickly found I can breathe more deeply and have noticed two other health improvements. After four weeks, I am still a motivated non-smoker." - James Benn, Brussels

What are the success rates for other ways of stopping smoking?

- Acupuncture up to 25% success rate
- Zyban (Drug) with its side effects, up to 21% success rate

"94% of patients that stopped smoking through hypnosis were still not smoking 18 months later".

"..93% of Niotine patch users fail within a half year..." (Freedom From Tobacco - Quit Smoking Now).

WHY STOP SMOKING?
There are many reasons to stop: bad for your health, expensive waste of money, no smoking rules at work or in bars/restaurants, planes etc., anti-social habit, passive smoke inhaled by family members especially children, smelly clothes and hair, ageing effect on your skin etc. I just ask one thing - that you want to stop for your own reason(s), not that someone else is pressuring you to quit. From the moment you book the session, you become an ex-smoker.

DOES STOPPING SMOKING HAVE TO BE DIFFICULT?
So many conditioned thoughts can lead you to believe it is difficult to stop smoking:
“Quitting is so hard.”
“I can’t stop thinking about cigarettes.”
“I’ll put on weight if I stop”. (A common misconception.)
“I need to smoke to relieve stress.”
“I always smoke after a meal (or sex).”

With my help, you will stop smoking by relaxing and changing your thoughts about smoking. I do not use "aversion therapy" which makes you feel sick whenever you smell cigarette smoke but just reprogramme your mind to see you as a non-smoker. You will enjoy the freedom from slavery to smoking. I include suggestions to ensure you do not replace smoking with over-eating.

NICOTINE REPLACEMENT PRODUCTS
Some people even need therapy to break their addiction to Nicorette chewing gum or nicotine patches and scientists have found a high link in the risk of mouth cancer and nicotine replacement products.
See Cancer Risk with Nicotine Replacement Products

So don't take the risk - choose the natural, relaxing way to become a non-smoker.

Is Your Unconscious Preventing Change?

In trance work with hypnosis we talk about the conscious mind and the unconscious mind. Some people associate the word “unconscious” with being in a coma or anaesthetized in an operation. We simply mean that the conscious mind, the content we are aware of, accounts for 5-10% of all brain activity whereas the unconscious mind takes up 90-95%. So most of our brain activity is unconscious, some of it related to normal body functions which we do not consciously control eg pumping blood around the body.

The distinction here is that we might know what we are doing wrong consciously, what we want to change or why phobias are irrational fears but the unconscious mind is keeping us stuck in the habit, the behavior pattern or the trigger response. All long-term change and learning takes place in the unconscious. You only know something when you cannot forget it.

The conscious mind might want to make a change and so those words come out of our mouth but the unconscious could be holding on for a secondary benefit such as attention-seeking, keeping the person on long-term sickness benefit.

Hypnotherapy can be a very fast technique. Typically, smokers stop smoking with hypnosis in one session. Most issues are dealt with in 2-5 sessions, some health problems take longer. But some people are not really ready to change. Without realizing, they argue to stay stuck the way they are and that is simply because they have rehearsed that way of being or doing for a very long time.

I always ask the client whether they are committed to make change NOW and may test with ideomotor signaling or quantum linguistics, questions which make no sense to the conscious mind but fire up the neurology in the unconscious. In relevant cases, a detailed personal history can already lead the person to identify patterns and make changes.

Milton Erickson said, “Your clients will be your clients because they are out of rapport with their unconscious mind.”

If the client cancels their second appointment, I don’t take it personally. I just realize they are not ready to make change even though they say they are. This lack of personal congruence may be due to beliefs, value systems, identity issues which is where NLP comes in.

I believe,
1. “People have within them all the resources they need to achieve what they want.” Yes, but they don’t know it.
2. “People make the best choices they can at any given moment, given their present model of their world.” Exactly, it is their model or view of the world which needs to be altered before they can achieve the outcome they want and we must always respect another’s model of the world, even crazy sounding ones!

The client must agree to enter into a relationship with me. Just because they have come for help does not mean that they are ready to change. My job is to do the initial work with their unconscious so that they can move forward and make positive change.

Stop Smoking in One Session of Hypnosis

SMOKING is the main reason people ask for hypnosis. It is the best way to stop smoking. Far more successful than Nicorette chewing gum, nicotine patches, acupuncture, cold turkey and sheer willpower. From the moment you book the session, you become an ex-smoker.
