Stop Smoking With Hypnotherapy By Gemma Bailey At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

The benefits of stopping smoking are endless, so I will not even bother trying to list them! You will of course be generally much healthier, and of course much more empowered when you are no longer at the mercy of a little white stick. In my hypnotherapy practice I am dedicated to ensure that you give up smoking with ease and speed. This is why I offer two choices to my clients who are interested in quitting smoking as well as a free consultation.

When you make the decision to use Hypnotherapy to help you quit smoking, I will initially want to make sure that you are completely motivated to do so and that you want to give up smoking for all the right reasons. For example, one of my clients said that he really enjoyed smoking but that his wife hated it and that he wanted to stop smoking for her. Fortunately I identified this mans lack of motivation to achieve the goal for himself. If I'd have carried out the hypnotherapy there is little chance that it would have been successful due to the fact that the client didn't have the desire to want to quit smoking.

In my practice I use a range of different hypnotherapy techniques to assist my clients so that they are able to stop smoking. Here are some example of how I do it:

Away from techniques- There are of course many off putting facts about the negative impact smoking has on the mind and body. When your mind is overloaded with this information you will feel compelled to move away from smoking forever.

Moving towards techniques- I also have lots of information about the positive impact quitting smoking and remaining a non smoker has. I am keen to help you set goals for the future that wouldn't have been attainable whilst you were a smoker. Now that you are a non smoker you can explore new ways to relax, to exercise and to spend your money.

Metaphors- I believe that if you can lay back and enjoy the experience of quitting smoking, then you should! That's why I use tailor made metaphors, which give very specific instructions to you subconscious mind and suggestions to give up smoking. However, consciously, you don't even need to listen, you can just lay back and relax.

Empowering alternatives- Wouldn't it be fantastic to know that you can, not only give up smoking, but that you can also look forward to doing something really and truly meaningful to do instead. Such as spending time with your family, which, no doubt, if you didn't quit smoking, an early grave would have prevented that opportunity.

Anchoring- As well as a qualified hypnotherapist I am also a qualified NLP Master Practitioner. This means that throughout your intervention there is a strong chance that I will also use some NLP techniques. One such NLP techniques is called anchoring. This allows the hypnotherapist to create for you, a really powerful positive resource that you can fire off at will, should you find yourself tempted by cigarettes.

Compared to all other methods, research suggests that Hypnotherapy may can improve the chances of quitting smoking and remaining a non smoker.

Hypnotherapy works in several ways, including:

* Reducing the anxiety associated with stopping smoking
* Helping people to find the motivations for stopping
* Installing coping mechanisms
* Re-evaluate unconscious beliefs and behaviours associated to smoking
* Installing positive beliefs so that weight gain is not inevitable.

I have successfully helped many people to quit smoking throughout my years of practice as a hypnotherapist. Few of those people have required follow up sessions, many quit after just one session.
