Smoking Cesstation
Have you tried:
Patches, gums, inhalers, cutting down, or just going cold turkey?
If you have, they probably haven’t worked which is why you must be
reading this. The physical addiction of nicotine is a very minor part
of the problem - patches, gums etc can sort this out.The mental addiction
of smoking is a very major part - that’s where hypnosis comes in.
This is why, for most people, gums, patches and cold turkey are not
able to stop the habit, because the problem is a mental one and lies
within the sub conscious part of our mind. It is Mental programming.
And we construct these programs in the mind through habitual repetition.
If we do the same thing often enough that thought pattern then gets
imprinted in the mind. Then it goes onto ‘automatic’ and starts to
control us! When we should be controlling it.The subconscious responds
to circumstances around us. Example: Perhaps you find that whenever
the kettle goes on, you ‘automatically’ reach for your packet of cigarettes,
and without hardly realising it, you find yourself sat down with a
cuppa in one hand and a cigarette in the other. So, what happened?
The act of putting the kettle on activated a ‘light up trigger’. These
triggers are unique to each smoker the kettle scenario is merely an
example. Another common one might be - after a meal or when you jump
into the car. A ‘light up trigger’ reminds you, with the feeling of
a craving, that when you do this, you have a cigarette.
Finally think about this: How long can you go without a cigarette?
A hour? A couple?
OK. So, how many
hours do you sleep?
So, I reckon it is fairly easy to go that long without a smoke . Why
I hear you ask? Because you don’t have any ’light up triggers’ until
the morning when you wake.
Smoking therapy at Uncommon Practice is done in a single 90/120 minute
session. After much development and research, this format has proved
to be the most powerful and effective. The fee is £99 (approx
20 packets of cigarettes).
I offer no guarantees, my philosophy is that by doing this you are
always giving your mind an opt out at any time, believing you can
come back and ‘try’ again.
However let’s be clear from the outset: Who wants you to give up?
I can only help you if the answer to that question is ‘Me’. This is
important as we work with your strength of resolve and commitment.
From the moment we make the appointment, the therapy start, so the
first thing I ask you to do is to plan a count down to your ‘end day’
- the day you finish smoking. This will be the day when you see me.
You’ll need to work out which will be your last packet, and plan to
get through that packet until you have the last and final cigarette
just before your appointment. Savour this last cigarette and know
that it is your very last. This exercise will help to condition your
mental thought processes, and strengthen your commitment prior to
your therapy session.
When we meet, I will ask quite a few questions in order to establish
the ‘type’ of smoker you are. This will help me to tailor the session
to your own particular needs.
We then have a practice with hypnosis, so that you can experience
it and realise how relaxing, enjoyable and easy it is. Then we use
various
hypnotherapeutic techniques to deal with the mental thought processes
associated with your smoking habit.
I look forward to meeting you soon……………………………………… |
