Is it hard to stop smoking?
The simple answer is that is doesn't have to be.
People who smoke tend to fall into three general categories:
- Those who
want to stop smoking, and have tried to stop
smoking before, but have failed
- Those who want to stop smoking, but have have never tried to
stop smoking
- Those who don't want to stop smoking at all.
Those who have tried to stop smoking in the past
The majority of clients who come to us for a
stop smoking hypnotherapy
session have tried
various ways of
stopping smoking in the past,
often with varying degrees of success.
They often find that whatever method they use,
be it
nicotine patches, gum, or straight-forward
will-power, they will be able to
stop smoking
for a period of several weeks, or even months,
but they always tend to go back to smoking after
a while.
Stopping smoking by these methods
never seems to last for them.
Every time someone
stops smoking using any of
these methods, and who then goes back to smoking
again, is re-enforcing the belief that
stopping smoking is hard.
It is often this belief that can make it
even harder to
stop smoking the next time round.
The belief that
stopping smoking is going to be
hard, can even go on to prevent them from
trying
to stop smoking again the next time.
Hypnotherapy can help this group of people stop
smoking far more successfully than other methods
have in the past, because it deals with the
real, psychological reasons why they smoke in
the first place.
Those who want to stop smoking, but have never
tried
These are the people who
want to stop smoking, but believe
that stopping smoking is going to be so hard, that it seems almost
'not worth trying'.
For this category, it all comes down to the belief itself.
This belief often comes from stories, advertising, friends
experiences and so on.
Hypnotherapy can help this group
of people to stop smoking successfully because it deals with those
'belief systems' that are in place.
Those who don't want to stop smoking at all.
Those who don't actually
want to stop smoking (for example
someone who is being pushed into
stopping smoking by a spouse, or
someone who simply enjoys smoking), can find it especially
difficult, using whatever method, because they aren't always
motivated enough to make the change.
It doesn't have to be hard to stop smoking
Whether you've tried to
stop smoking in the past before or not,
it all boils down to the fact that if you really
want to stop
smoking, you can.
Hypnotherapy can take that desire you already have to
stop
smoking and make it work for you, helping you to change those
'belief systems'... helping you to
stop smoking successfully.
