Stop smoking clinic in Cambridge using hypnosis
At Cambridge Hypnotherapy Clinic we use a combination
of suggestion therapy, visualization and positive thinking to
help you to quit smoking as easily as possible.We have an extremely high success rate.
A couple of years ago the largest study ever conducted into stopping smoking was undertaken (in the U.S.A.) It studied everything from will power, nicotine patches, positive thinking to placebos and chewing gum - and the conclusion was that "most techniques turned out to be hopeless, hypnosis however came out as the most effective anti-smoking technique".
With the powerful smoking cessation techniques that I use, a very high percentage of smokers find it easy to quit - in just one session.
Why is it so hard to quit?
In my experience, most people find it hard to give up smoking because they receive no immediate or tangible BENEFIT for doing so: they get no reward.
Let me give you an example:
If somebody offered you ten pounds for your gold chain/watch, would you take it?
No, of course you wouldn't.
What about £20? £50?, what about £500?Chances are, if the amount offered kept rising, then sooner or later an amount would be reached that was an acceptable price/exchange for your piece of jewelry, even if it was a family heirloom or a present from a loved one.
You wouldn't give it up for nothing, you'd be mad but you would want to be compensated for your loss.
The better the 'deal' you get, the better you feel about it.
The worse the 'deal' you get, the worse you feel about it. Makes sense?
Now...
part of you wants to smoke. You like it. You need it. You might even love it! You've probably done it for years and years. It helps you to relieve stress and tension. It makes you feel confident, when you are feeling insecure. It calms you down when you've been feeling anxious. It acts as a reward after a tough day at work. It makes you feel 'whole', and 'complete'. (I could go on and on and on here) Why would you want to give up all those benefits? and receive no reward for doing so?
Why do you want to quit?
You might think that by quitting you would; live a little longer, feel a little healthier, get nagged a little less from your partner or kids, save a few quid, or have nicer smelling breath. The trouble is, .and here is the problem, none of those reasons bring immediate rewards i.e. You don't feel healthier/fitter/richer/nicer smelling/less nagged, the day after quitting smoking. (or the next day, or week, or even month)
That doesn't sound like a good deal to me! - give up something I love, and in five years I may just feel a little healthier!
No wonder people often get stressed, moody, stroppy, angry and depressed when they quit smoking by willpower alone.
People want their rewards and benefits NOW - not in five/ten/twenty years time.
Hypnotherapy for smoking cessation is so successful, because you do receive immediate rewards for your efforts.
You feel an intense sense of pride and satisfaction, you receive an immediate boost to your willpower,you gain a huge amount of confidence in your ability to remain a non smoker, situations that used to make you feel stressed or anxious, now just relax youand so on.
Ask yourself this;
... if you received a fantastic sense of well-being, calmness, pride and satisfaction every time you got yourself in a situation where you used to have a cigarette,
why would you want or need to smoke again?
