Stop Smoking Tips

Can Hypnotherapy Help You to Quit Smoking?

If you have ever really wanted to quit smoking, then this could be the most important article you have ever read.

Here's Why:

Smoking is no longer considered cool, it has become problematical in the social environment as you can no longer smoke in many places, and we know so much more these days about the damage to ourselves and others caused by smoking.

Some people think that there are genetic, personality, social, cultural, psychological and environmental factors associated with smoking behaviour. I have treated many people using hypnotherapy to quit smoking, and their personalities have all been different! The genetic, or so called addictive personality argument also doesn't fit my experience. Most become non smokers and stay smoke free after treatment.

Smoking addictions can lead to problems beyond the object of addiction itself, such as problems with your health, emotions, capacity to concentrate and your relationships (not to mention financial issues).

Smoking can give the illusion of relaxation while in reality, great stress is added to the body mind system.

The good news is, you can learn how to stop craving cigarettes and start living. Counselling, hypnotherapy and NLP to help you quit smoking are available in our Brighton, Melbourne clinic.

At Bayside Therapies our therapists work one on one with people to enable them to quit smoking. First we find out if you click with the therapist, and if we think we can help you help yourself.  Even at this first meeting most people gain more self-awareness and different ideas to consider on how to quit smoking.

The approach during treatment will depend upon what we consider most valuable for you, and may include one or a combination of humanistic person centred therapy, Buddhist Mindfulness Meditation exercises, Existential therapy, psychoanalytic, psychodynamic, Dream work, NLP, Hypnotherapy and other such methods. The key is to find out what is best for you to enable you to quit smoking, so you can discover lasting inner peace and real happiness without dependency on something outside yourself.

My approach is psychological in nature and natural (does not involve medication). However people are frequently referred by their doctors and both approaches can sometimes work well together. Usually a good fit with hypnotherapy and counselling helping people to quit smoking for the long term. To ensure value for money, please mindfully ask yourself right now what will it cost you not to smoking?
