The Nature of Smoking
Since smoking is both physical and mental, success in a stop smoking effort must
change not only the mental attitude but the physical reaction.
It is important to determine what personal needs of yours are being satisfied by
smoking.
Is it to nurture yourself, to combat loneliness, or for a 'pick me up'? Do you believe
smoking relieves stress or provides moments of relaxation? The more candid you are
about when, where and why you smoke, the more effortlessly you succeed at becoming
a non smoker through hypnotherapy.
How Hypnotherapy Helps You Quit
Hypnosis works well to create change because it temporarily bypasses the conscious
mind and allows access to the subconscious. The behavioral changes are then
experienced through suggestion.
One of the most powerful attributes of the human psyche is its ability to visualize (or
imagine). Hypnotherapy helps to develop and focus the powers of visualization. The
individual visualizes one's self as a non smoker, enjoying new health, energy and
vitality, and sees the process as being complete. The memory of smoking seems distant.
As reported in the Journal of Applied Psychology, hypnosis is three (3) times more
effective for quitting smoking than nicotine replacement therapies. In 1993, the results
of the largest, world-wide study ever recorded evaluating stop smoking methods was
published in New Scientist (New Scientist, vol 136, pp6) magazine. The study included
thousands of people in Europe, America and Asia and revealed that hypnosis was a
'remarkably effective method' in helping people to quit smoking.

Why should you quit??? Just in case you've been in a long deep sleep, here are some
reasons to stop smoking...
What a nightmare! Tired of the endless nagging that is more like harassment?
Sick of constantly stepping outdoors in the cold/heat for a puff?
When was the last time somebody told you that you smelled GOOD?
When was the last time YOU smelled ANYTHING?
Or honestly TASTED anything?
How long since you had a whole day cough-free?
Enough about you---how healthy is your wallet?
Most smokers would never consider enduring the stigma, the health dangers, the
obscene price tag if they knew how easy it was to quit. Most smokers try, fail, try again,
over and over, but few actually succeed. Oh if they only knew about
hypnosis/hypnotherapy!!
If they only knew that with one short session of hypnosis, they and their loved ones,
could be smoke-free forever!
Still unsure? Afraid? Motivation is the only thing you need...motivation and one
session of hypnotherapy.
At Matthews Hypnosis, we will give you everything you need to be successful, to be rid
of this disgusting habit, forever.
