How To Use Hypnosis To Kick The Smoking Habit

by Alan B. Densky, CH

The typical person makes an effort to quit smoking between four to six times before they are successful. If you have tried gum, patches, prescriptions or willpower alone without success, make your final attempt successful with stop smoking hypnosis.

Of all of the ways to quit smoking, hypnosis is truly the most simple and has the best track record. If you are willing to consistently watch and listen to DVDs and CDs specially intended to curb your cravings to smoke, then quit smoking hypnosis will be successful for you.

Many smokers believe that they cannot quit smoking because of their nicotine addiction, but that simply is not true. Medical professionals agree that after seven to ten days - even as soon as three days - all nicotine has been cleared from the system, which leaves smokers to focus on the more arduous and far reaching psychological and emotional addiction to smoking cigarettes.

There are innumerable processes to quit smoking, but just one method can address both the emotional compulsion and the cravings: quit smoking hypnosis CDs. Many people who want to quit still end up asking themselves, "Why can't I simply quit smoking?"

For hypnotherapists, the answer is obvious. The part of you that won't let you quit smoking is the unconscious mind. You cannot change your unconscious mind by force of will or with a gum, patch or prescription. You require the right kind of help.

In order to quit smoking, support is imperative, but most people do not understand that the best support comes from within their own unconscious mind. Hypnosis is the most successful method to ensure that your complete psyche is united to help you stop smoking. That is because hypnosis provides a compelling method of communicating with the unconscious mind.

Stop smoking hypnosis helps you get rid of the urge to smoke by removing the desire to light up. When the urge and compulsion to smoke are subtracted, quitting becomes painless choice that you can make without difficulty. The best stop smoking hypnosis programs are successful because they focus on the most powerful components of the smoking addiction.

The first component of a successful stop smoking hypnosis program addresses the craving to smoke for pleasure and relaxation. This example was actually founded when you were a baby. Most likely, when you were cranky, your mother or father gave you a bottle on which to suck. Then it diverted your attention; you relaxed and probably fell asleep. Smokers obtain the same relaxing effect from a cigarette.

With quit smoking hypnosis, your unconscious mind is reprogrammed to achieve pleasure and relaxation by automatically replacing stress-inducing thoughts with calming thoughts instead, all through the use of the very same triggers that previously made you tense. This makes the tension almost magically disappear. Additionally, the very fundamental nature of hypnosis is relaxation. So by listening to a soothing hypnotherapy CD daily, anxiety levels will quickly diminish.

The second component of an effective stop smoking hypnosis program will help you deal with the habituation, or the "Habit." Habituation happens when the unconscious mind generates an association between smoking and other behaviors, such as watching television or driving. Perhaps the second that you turn on the television you are fighting with a craving to smoke.

An effective stop smoking hypnosis DVD or CD will reprogram your unconscious associations so that driving, for example, actually makes you want to NOT smoke! This is called, no pun intended, extinguishing a conditioned response.

Here is a news flash! The physical nicotine addiction is merely about ten percent of the addiction. Ninety percent of the addiction to cigarettes is comprised of the mental and emotional components that we have discussed thus far. And as stated earlier in this article, medical experts maintain that the body is void of nicotine in as little as three days.

People who use Neuro-Linguistic Programming and quit smoking hypnosis CDs and DVDs recognize that when their smoking associations and dependence on cigarettes to relax have been reprogrammed, the physical addiction is really such a diminutive part of their smoking dependency, that it has no influence on their capability to quit smoking without enduring withdrawal.

Now, I must advise you that regardless of the unparalleled success that clients have had with stop smoking hypnosis and NLP CDs and DVDs, you must possess the desire to quit smoking prior to beginning a program. And in addition to the desire to quit, you must make an honest decision to quit. That means that you must be ready and willing to throw away your cigarettes.

Hypnosis CDs and DVDs cannot be used to force you to do something you do not wish to do, so no program can coerce you to stop smoking. But if you have the wish to quit smoking, and you make a decision to quit smoking, hypnosis will help you to remain relaxed and not suffer from cravings, tension or withdrawal symptoms. Let hypnosis and NLP give you the support you need.
