Using Hypnosis to Stop Smoking

Are you sick and tired of always having to fight the urge of wanting to smoke? Is your morning cough getting continuously worse and are you finding that just walking up a small set of stairs makes you tired? You have possibly known for a very long time that you have to quit, but you also know that if you try it will be a struggle and you would rather stay coughing and tired than the thought of a life without cigarettes. Through the use of self-hypnosis you can alleviate the stress that comes with quitting because you are able to bypass the negative associations you have with the withdrawal of nicotine. You will not experience the same cranky feeling that numerous cigarette smokers have seen on their path to a healthier life.

Self-hypnosis provides you with admittance into the sub-conscious part of your brain and makes you able to train you mind to achieve the things pure willpower can't. How many people have you heard say “It's my willpower, it's just too weak.” Well, it's only weak because your sub-conscious mind has programmed it that way through its control of your habits, behaviours and emotional drive. If you don't have your sub-conscious on board from the get-go when trying to quit you have already lost. This is because it doesn't matter how much your conscious mind wants to quit or how much it knows you have to quit, it will always lose against your sub-conscious. Through the proper use of self-hypnosis you will have a tool for making your sub-conscious and conscious mind go hand in hand. With the use of self-hypnosis you will be using very powerful sub-conscious motivators for wanting to quit smoking, which will help you overcome your need to smoke.

If you want to quit smoking with self-hypnosis, you first have to enter a absolute state of relaxation. You have to find a peaceful and quiet place every day which allows you practice relaxation without any distractions. After this, you must formulate your self-hypnosis scripts of positive expressions, which will have to be repeated over and over during the relaxation process. When creating your self-hypnosis scripts, there are a few pointers you should follow. First of all, you should make sure to always create phrases that are positive and stay in the present tense and always talk about yourself as “I.” You phrase might go something like this, “I am in full control and cigarettes are no longer a part of my life”, “I will not smoke one day for the rest of my life”, or “ “I am content with the decision that I will be smoke-free for the rest of my life.”

Research has shown that self-hypnosis has the potential of being one of the most successful and rewarding ways to rid yourself of your bad habits such as smoking. The use of self-hypnosis will provide you with help in your desire to quit and you will discover that as soon as your sub-conscious mind absorbs the idea, usually within a few day, you will be living a healthy and smoke-free life once again.
