The Two Main Reasons for Smoking:

How Hypnotherapy Helps You Stop Smoking

The Role of Your Commitment

By the same token, Hypnotherapy cannot make you do things you don't want to do. This is clear with people who vacillate in their decision to stop smoking.

Sometimes one wants to stop smoking and wants a friend to stop smoking with them. But the friend does not want to stop smoking at all, he/she is not ready yet. In this case, the whole process of stopping smoking for the first person is jeopardized, and perhaps becomes impossible, because the close friend is not there at this stage to stop smoking yet.

In another instance, you may theoretically wish to stop smoking (some day) but realistically are not committed to ending this habit yet. Perhaps, your reasons are that you are going through a difficult time, stress on the job, divorce, or death in the family, etc. Those of you to whom this applies, skip down to the reasons to stop smoking today.

The ways your hypnotherapist will use to facilitate your process of stop smoking are mainly your imagination. The ability to visualize one's self as a non-smoker, enjoying new health, energy and vitality, is a major asset. Visualization enables the client to 'see' cigarettes as unappealing, bad tasting, foul smelling and revolting. Likewise, its possible to feel and sense clean breath, a healthy appearance, disappearance of wrinkles caused by the smoking habit, and increased sensitivity to taste, fragrances and smells. A smoker can visualize himself/herself looking healthier, more active, in better physical condition, breathing easy with stronger, healthier lungs. Perhaps, postpone or eliminate the possibility of lung cancer or other disease. Through hypnotherapy, the senses of sight, touch, smell, hearing and taste can all be enhanced and used to modify reactions to achieve goals.
