How to Quit Smoking with Hypnosis in Stockton California

Hi There, Suzie Bowers here, founder of California Hypnosis and Herbal Center in Stockton, California.

I am here today to talk with you about How to Quit Smoking with Hypnosis. All the studies are done and it’s been proven that using hypnosis to Stop Smoking is the easiest, most successful, fastest, painless and healthiest way to do it. Unlike nicotine replacement, anti-depressants and smokeless cigarettes, hypnosis has no harmful side-effects.

But probably, we should begin by discussing why you’re still smoking to begin with. Everyone knows that smoking kills. There is no mystery here. In fact, 1 out of 2 smokers dies from smoking related diseases. And the other 50% lose an average of 14 years off their life.

Every day you might be rationalizing that you may dodge that bullet, but the truth is every cigarette you smoke is sucking your energy, your wallet, your relationships and taking time off your life.

You think $4 and $5 a pack is expensive? You’re really not getting the whole picture. A study done by Duke University showed the true cost of smoking, including the health issues, lost time, lost work hours and damage to clothes and upholstery averages out to $40 a pack.

What I have found is that most smokers don’t really enjoy smoking. If you’re anything like me, you probably started smoking in your teen years or early 20s and thought there was no way you’d actually become a “smoker.” In fact, probably like me, you thought you’d be able quit smoking at any time that you wanted to.

When we first start smoking, we really have to think about and remember to do it. It’s not automatic, it’s not easy. The truth is, that first cigarette was gross, disgusting, I mean it burns the roof of your mouth, makes you choke and cough, struggle for air, and you probably felt dizzy and maybe even a little nauseous. But in that moment, it was more important to fit in and look cool than to pay attention to the warning signs your body was sending you.

And let’s face it, we are bombarded by messages about the “glamour” of smoking from television, movies and big tobacco companies.

So in that moment, we make a choice and our mind begins to link up, have a cigarette feel better. Then one magical day, smoking goes from something we have to remember to do, to something we have to do automatically, every day or we just don’t feel right.

So when did that “magical moment” happen?

It’s kind of like learning to drive a car. At first it’s hard. You have to remember to use the gas, the brakes, blinkers, watch the road, remember all the traffic signals and obey the laws. Then one day, it becomes automatic, you just get in the car and drive. Smoking is kind of like that. One day it just becomes a part of your life and you’re not even sure why you’re doing it anymore.

Then your life becomes consumed with smoking. You have to remember not to run out of cigarettes, make sure you bring your lighter, have a back up lighter. Find places to smoke. Smoking begins to take over your life.

The only way to stop smoking is to just stop and the only reason you’re doing it is because you’re still doing it.

After 7 years as a smoking cessation specialist, here’s what I know about smoking:

Cutting back doesn’t work. Applying pressure to yourself to quit, doesn’t work. Thinking about all the health risks, doesn’t work.

So what does work?

Get clear why you don’t want to smoke any longer.

• Make a decision that you will stop no matter what it takes.
• Learn to quiet your mind and breathe.
• Focus on how good it feels to be a non-smoker.
