Stop Smoking

Many smokers believe that smoking relieves stress and helps to relax them, but the reality is, it does the opposite. The body actually goes into ‘stress mode’, your nervous system switches to red alert as it is in fact being poisoned by chemicals such as arsenic and tar. This puts long term strain on your body.

A cigarette gives you a two minute fix of dopamine, the brain chemical that makes you feel good combined with about 48 hours of stress on your nervous system. You keep going back for that ‘good feeling' to counteract the stress.... only to increase the stress again! Hence the ‘addiction’ tag.

Ditching the cigarettes does require some will-power and motivation. However it is proven that with Hypnotherapy you are at least five to fifteen times more likely to succeed than by willpower alone.

Sick and tired of being 'controlled' by smoking?

During my Stop Smoking sessions, I use a range of techniques suited to your individual needs, these may include Clinical Hypnosis. Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Cognitive Behavioural Techniques (CBT). This is very important because everyone is different and has different motivations, behaviours and thought patterns. Therefore dismantling your habit may require a different approach than that of someone else.
