Hypnosis to quit smoking

There are two ways to use hypnosis to quit smoking forever: self-hypnosis and hypnotherapy by a certified hypnotherapist/hypnosis counselor. A certified hypnotherapist/hypnosis counselor is someone who has gone through extensive training and has passed rigorous testing in hypnosis. A certified hypnotherapist/hypnosis counselor many times has an advanced degree in a medical profession like psychology, medicine, nursing, psychiatry, dentistry or naturopathy. If you decide to work with a hypnotherapist/hypnosis counselor, ensure that your sessions are done by someone who is an expert in the field.

There are many reasons that work against you when you try to stop smoking cold turkey. There is the physical aspect of nicotine. You can deal with that by using a nicotine patch or chewing gum. Most people have the patch on their arm, and still feel the craving for smoking. So this is only part of the picture. There are also psychological reasons (the real reasons) and this is where hypnosis is fantastic.

As a child you learned through repetition. Having something placed in your mouth, like a bottle or pacifier, distracts from whatever upsets you and you can relax and go to sleep. As an adult this learned behavior still works: you’re stressed out and reach for a cigarette. If you try to quit, you eat more food instead, end up gaining weight, and still have cravings for a smoke.

Smoking cigarettes is a conditioned response. The most well known example of a conditioned response is Pavlov’s dogs. His dogs learned that ringing a bell means that they will get fed, and after a few repetitions they will start producing saliva just when hearing the bell.

A lot of cat owners know that the sound of the can opener or the fridge door can do the same thing for their cat. You may have developed a conditioned response to crave a cigarette because you always smoke in certain situations. You smoke on breaks from work, in your car, and after drinking coffee. When you try to quit, any of these situations will remind you of smoking and create a strong craving for a cigarette.

Hypnosis creates a new response in your mind where you can replace the need to smoke with something healthier. Hypnosis can also break the bond of smoking with situations that trigger you to light up and therefore break your conditioned response that creates the cravings. Once these two reasons for smoking vanish and you have successfully used hypnosis to stop smoking for good.
