Why People
Don't Stop Smoking Most people know the smoking facts:
that by stopping smoking they will save several thousand dollars a year.
Most believe that stopping smoking could add years to their lives. Most
people who know the effects of smoking would
agree that if they quit smoking right now, they could be saving their health—before
it’s too late. So why do people continue to smoke? This stop
smoking program was initially developed with 20 years of combined
experience in dealing with the mind, both in the USA and in the UK, and those
of us who use it have found the answer to be the same all over the world.
It all comes down to one thing…Fear. - Fear that
you’ll have to give up the only crutch or pleasure that makes life satisfying
- Fear that you won’t be able to enjoy life or handle stress
- Fear
that you will put on lots of weight
- Fear that you’ll have to go
through an awful trauma to get free
- Fear that you’ll never ever
get free of the craving
All these fears are just examples of one overriding
fear. The one simple reason that you have not quit smoking is that you fear
that it is going to be too painful and difficult, even impossible. Quitting
Smoking May Be Easier Than You Expected When you think about not
smoking anymore, do you expect to feel deprived? Like you’ve made
a sacrifice? Are you worried or pained by even the thought? That’s
the beauty of hypnotherapy. Once you are the nonsmoker you want to be, you’ll
have a huge sense of relief. You will have at last achieved what most smokers
long to achieve: a new freedom and sense of relief. How would you like a
stop smoking program that doesn’t force you to experience
feelings of deprivation or great sacrifice? Doesn’t require you to
use stop smoking aids like nicotine gum or patches? Or
inhalers or nasal sprays? Or lasers? That certainly doesn’t
ask you to purchase useless stop smoking aids or other
unnatural substitutes? In fact, this program involves relaxation. And the
help of your own subconscious mind. Imagine how it would feel if the
part of you that has been keeping you smoking “switched teams,” and
helped you stop smoking to become the nonsmoker you want to be.
(Imagine the most powerful part of your mind helping you do
what you want to do!) With hypnosis, you just sit back in a nice comfortable
chair, and relax. To discuss your personal situation, call (312) 640-1584. A
Special Program With A Special Offer We have so much confidence
in our methods that after years in practice we are among the only hypnotists who
offer this: if you start smoking again, whether it is two days,
or two months, or later, all you have to do is give
us a call and we’ll get you back in at no extra charge. You
may be wondering how we can offer these free back-up sessions… The
Majority Of Clients Stop In One Appointment The reason we can
offer our no-extra-charge promise is because we have a high success rate.
Most quit smoking in one session, and the rest usually stop after
one free back-up session. Legally we can’t promise that you’ll
do the same. But we can say that almost everyone we see is surprised at
how quickly and easily they respond. They also love the bonus: a feeling
of deep relaxation! Our Unique Approach Since the
American Medical Association (AMA) and the British Medical Association (BMA) approved
the use of clinical hypnosis in the 1950’s, thousands of people have found
hypnosis to be an effective way to stop smoking, lose weight, and otherwise improve
their lives. Of course, there are varying degrees of success with hypnosis
because much depends upon the skill, experience, and general competence of the
individual hypnotherapist, the willingness of the participant as well as the techniques
being used. The beauty of our unique approach is that we use the best of
traditional hypnotherapy techniques, and combine them with the new science of
neurolinguistics (NLP), which takes the hypnosis to an even greater level of effectiveness. We
begin by using an approach that has already worked for many smokers worldwide,
and then we go a step further: we personalize it to your individual
smoking habit (smoking cigarettes, pipe, weed—and even chewing tobacco!)
lifestyle situations, and work environment. And, of course, situations that
triggered your smoking in the past. So the approach we use
with you may not be identical to what we use for your best friend. One of
the reasons some clients tell us it doesn’t feel painful or frustrating
to stop smoking with our method is this: we transfer the pleasure derived
from smoking to a healthier habit of your choice (e.g. exercise, drinking more
water, relaxation). This is the reason why, with us, you shouldn’t
expect to gain lots of unwanted weight or experience other problems you’ve
associated with smoking cessation – our effects are an
increase in pride, savings, and freedom. If this surprises you, or makes
you curious, call (312) 640-1584. Nothing To Fear, Everything to
Gain Hypnosis may be as old as mankind.
The old myths and misconceptions about hypnosis have given way to proven, scientifically
sound applications. Today the use of hypnosis is seen in a variety of fields
including: medicine, dentistry, law enforcement, professional sports, and education. Most
people have a limited understanding of the positive results that can be achieved
in a professional hypnosis session. We would like to dispel some of the
myths and answer the most frequently asked questions about hypnosis. How
does hypnosis work? Our minds work on two levels – the
conscious and the subconscious. We make decisions, think,
and act with our conscious mind. The subconscious mind controls our habits.
In the relaxed state known as hypnosis, we can communicate directly with the subconscious
mind. This is why it is so quick and easy to change habits of a lifetime
with hypnosis. Visit our Articles
section and you’ll find articles on quitting smoking, on hypnosis, and on
hypnosis for quitting smoking. Will hypnosis work for me?
Generally speaking, everyone is “hypnotizable” (that
is, among people with an IQ of at least 70, and no severe mental disorders).
Therefore, most can achieve successful results using hypnosis, if they are willing,
and follow the directions given. In our “phone appointment,”
before you even come to see us, we will ask you if you are willing to stop smoking
now. Your honest answer is one way for you to gauge for yourself the likelihood
of your success with hypnotherapy. How will I know if I am hypnotized?
Most people can’t tell the difference between the hypnotized
and the waking state. Some people feel relaxed and lethargic, others feel
a lightness. One thing that people tell us they do notice is an almost-inexplicable
change in their daily behaviors, particularly relating to the habit they chose
to work on, such as smoking. How safe is hypnosis?
You are aware and in control at every moment and can terminate the session at
any time. Hypnosis is not sleep, nor can you get “stuck” in
a state of hypnosis. You can’t be made to do something against your
will. Hypnosis is a safe, relaxing, and enjoyable experience. Did
you know they have been using hypnosis at the Mayo Clinic for years? However,
if you have reason to believe that you suffer from a medical condition that could
make hypnosis inadvisable, ask your doctor. How could hypnosis
help me kick the smoking habit? Because smoking is a habit,
it is controlled by the subconscious mind. Since hypnosis and NLP work directly
with the subconscious, you can see how this method makes sense. That’s
why most people naturally transition into the healthy lifestyle of a happy non-smoker.
For many of our clients, it only takes one session, ideal for people who are serious
about quitting and don’t want to spend time on a long stop smoking program. Call
now to schedule an appointment at our Chicago office so you, too, can
begin to enjoy the many benefits of being a non-smoker. Hypnosis
makes it easier than you ever thought it could be. Let us help
you make it easier for you. All you have to do is pick up the phone, make
an appointment, and keep the appointment. Are you ready to enjoy your life? Call
