Can Hypnosis Snuff Out a Smoker's Cigarette Habit?

Research shows that going cold turkey, using nicotine replacements, or taking medicine has far less effectiveness than undergoing hypnosis.

Hypnotherapy provides a natural and powerful way to stop. It allows you to address your subconscious, where your thoughts and beliefs reside.

It also takes less time. For some people, it can take as little as one session. The biggest difference is that you won’t be subjecting your body to more nicotine or potentially damaging medication.

Imformation on sucessful results on Hypnosis For Drug Addictions

I have conducted many quit smoking sessions with individual and groups in my country. The key factor to making that quit is based on a)The right information to increase their commitment for their health in a motivated focus b)Their ability to break their character code of hanging on to their belief about the habit c) Becoming aware about the imaginary courtship of their cigarette and the reality of this relationship d)Making a committed dicision rather than a decision to quit e)Focusing not on quitting but starting a new healthy lifestyle. f)A momentum framework for 90days with hypnosis support to prevent anti relapse.

All these factors, blended and delivered via mind programming techniques, sensory stimulations methods and anti-smoking education creates a hybrid and realistic manner to lasting quit.

We have evidence based studies on this method. Visit: www.s2qs.com and www.hypno-station.com

I was a pack and a half a day smoker for 32 years. In April of 2002, I attended a group hypnosis session held at a local catering hall. For about one hour the speaker talked about how and why we stay addicted and we all examined our own reasons for quitting. He also explained the actual hypnosis procedure to us. It only took 40 minutes and I haven't touched a cigarette since. At first, I was able to acknowledge that cigarette smoke smelled wonderful, but I didn't want to pull it into my lungs. Now, almost 8 years later, I can't stand the smell. Quitting also gives you an incredible sense of power, having beat something that used to control your life so completely.

Historically much has been reported on helpful, "alternative," bad-habit remedies. This fact is easily verified via The Internet. Over the last forty-eight years our founder developed a new concept in the "Personal Improvement" area; where hypnosis has proved as an invaluable tool in removing bad habits. Presently "Dynamic Imaging" (audio-visually enhanced) has been adopted as the tool of choice by us in combating a variety of undesirable habits. (Smoking cigarettes, procrastination and other counter-productive and/or unhealthy habits.) If you are one of the legions of Americans [regardless of income-level] who finds himself helplessly stuck in the “Glue-trap” of alcohol, nicotine and any number of other addictive substances. AWA's DIS represents the most affordable, good health and happiness alternative available today, affording quick, dependable results.

Although traditional-hypnosis can afford much quicker results than Dynamic Imaging (DI); when offered options this new concept is chosen today overwhelmingly by those who seek help because they prefer to remain awake during the entire process. Today the qualified, AWA Associate has been trained to establish the rapport necessary to help you using either method in the familiar peaceful surroundings of your home. Sometimes a nearby Park or Rest-Area [for example] can afford an ideally relaxing environment for this purpose as well. Only AWA through DIS offers these escape alternatives from bad habits cost-free in Corpus Christi, TX and in any other, nearby community. Therefore we invite you to apply soon for an appointment to interview and schedule a meeting with one of our qualified associates at an appropriate location of your choice.

Presently there are no medical professionals collaborating in this endeavor with AWA, but retired or semi-retired professionals in related fields are encouraged to con

you can stop easily using hypnosis and you don't need the nicotine patch. While this study was funded by drug companies who promote nicotine replacement therapies, you don't need the nicotine at all. When you use hypnosis alone, you will become a successful non smoker. Like the article says "hypnotic intervention evaluated in the study may have the potential to serve as another nonpharmacological treatment "

Hypnosis absolutely works, at least on some people. I had smoked for almost 50 years until an MD hypnotized me. I have not smoked anything in 32 months since I was hypnotized. I have no urge to smoke, even under severe stress, such as when my wife died of cancer.

http://stop123.com/seminar.html This is the website I found that helped me. I was up to 2 packs a day and had been smoking for nearly 30 years! It feels great to be smoke free and I can't wait for Indiana to become a smoke free state!
