Why Hypnosis For Quitting Smoking Has Such A High Success Rate
A growing number of people use hypnosis for quitting smoking. It’s not surprising if you know the success rate of this method. Studies show that using hypnotherapy for smoking cessation works in a percentage of cases as high as 80%. Every day smokers around the globe swear they will never touch a cigarette anymore. Yet most start again only a few weeks later. Despite all the health risks of smoking people find it extremely difficult to quit. Why? Contrary to what many smokers think, it’s not the nicotine. Nicotine is usually out of your system in as little as three to four days. Other chemicals may take a few days more. That’s why withdrawal symptoms like insomnia, nervousness and anger tend to fade away after a week. Still, many smokers start again, because the biggest problem is the mind-set. An addiction to smoking is not only physical but also psychological, and it’s much harder to deal with the psychological aspects of quitting smoking than with nicotine. Smoking has become a way of coping with stress, anxiety, or boredom. It regulates emotions and lighting up another cigarette has become ingrained in a smoker’s daily routine. Deep inside, they feel that NOT lighting up a cigarette deprives them of something. There’s only one way to get rid of such thoughts: enter the subconscious mind. That’s where the habit of being a smoker is lodged. Some people treat themselves, using self-hypnosis. It’s not impossible to give up smoking this way, but you need patience and practice to achieve the best results. Seeing a hypnotherapist saves time and may be more effective. When applying hypnosis for quitting smoking, your hypnotherapist will help you relax using images, sounds and words. When you contact me we will first discuss your reasons for wanting to quit. Only then we will book an appointment for a therapeutic session. It does not matter how many cigarettes or cigars you smoke daily, or how long you have smoked. As long as you have a strong wish to quit, you have a good chance to ban cigarettes out of your life. Another benefit of this method is that withdrawal effects other than those related to nicotine abstinence (as described above) are unlikely. The success rate is high. In fact, there is no other method for smoking cessation supported by research that comes close. Surveys show that your chance of a positive outcome is highest if you see a qualified, certified hypnotherapist. Feel free to call or write me if you would like to have more information.
