  1. E-Cigarettes article that seems like a Charlie Brooker Black Mirror episode

    Posted on

    This article in The Guardian today reads like an espisode of the dark comedy drama series Black Mirror created by writer Charlie Brooker.

    Here's the link to it. It's a long article but well worth having a read after you read this, especially if you disagree, and it may change the way that you see smoking e-cigs..

    Personally, I do wish people wouldn't say they quit smoking when they smoke e-cigs.

    Think about it like this if you can....If you moved from giving your money to one company to inhale toxins to the same thing with a different company then it isn't really quitting. 

     

    How would you describe smoking to a child?

     

    Well, you could say you pay for something that you then breathe in which gives you a hit of toxins. Now, isn't that the same for e-cigarettes? What do your children think when they see it?

    It seems that e-cigs are becoming an excuse for people who don't really want to stop smoking. It's almost as if smoking e cigarettes is seen as a charitable thing and the manufacturers want to help. They don't want you to stop smoking, they want you to smoke their products, otherwise they wouldn't need the fancy marketing and all those flavours to keep you coming back. Start to think about is as still smoking and then that may help you if you really do want to become a non smoker.

    In the meantime if you pay money for something that you put in your mouth all the time and inhale that is full of toxins then perhaps it's time you stopped saying you gave up smoking.

  2. NHS Smokefree Quit Smoking Hypnotherapy

    Posted on

    NHS Smokefree is an initiative much like Stoptober which is designed to give you help and support when you decide that you want to quit smoking for good.

    How does Hypnotherapy fit into the scheme of things when you want to stop smoking?

    Can Quit Smoking Hypnosis provide you with the help that you need?

    Stoptober began back in October 2012 and the aim was to help people with the knowledge that if you stop smoking for 30 days then you are much less likely to smoke again. Smokefree is the next NHS scheme to help you to quit smoking and it works all year long providing help and advice to many thousands of people who really want to end that smoking habit and give up cigarettes for the rest of their life.

    As Smokefree point out quitting smoking could well be the best decision you make in your life. You can get back that health that you would lose, be there for your family and save a huge amount of money that you can spend on things like holidays, cars or whatever you desire!

     

    You can watch a short youtube video about quit smoking hypnotherapy where I answer some of the questions about how hypnosis works below..

     

     

     

     

    Why doesn't the NHS pay for Hypnosis to stop smoking?

    It's interesting that despite the statistics showing that hypnotherapy is the most successful way to stop smoking for good they sadly do not pay for this and you need to see someone like myself privately for help.

    Statistics show that the most successful way to stop smoking is with hypnosis. Will power alone has a success rate of just 7% which shows just how hard it is to do these things on your own. Of course we all need a little help and once we get the right support there is no reason why you can't give up cigarettes for good.

    How can hypnotherapy help?

    Hypnotherapy to quit smoking works really well to help you change that habit. I know how well it works because I gave up smoking with hypnosis myself many years ago. I would never have another cigarette now and in fact just the thought of tasting one makes me feel a horrible taste in my mouth. I am full of energy and run and cycle without getting out of breath and I have lost count of the thousands of pounds that I have saved. If that sounds like something you think would benefit you then you are most likely to be able to benefit from quit smoking hypnotherapy. There really is only one important question to ask and it's a question that anyone who is thinking of stopping smoking should ask themselves before they try and stop the cigarettes...

     

    How much do you really want to stop smoking?

    It's a very important question because if you don't really want to stop smoking then quitting will be very difficult for you even if you use hypnosis. No one can make you do anything that you do not want to do...but if you want to stop then hypnotherapy to quit smoking works really well.

    What happens in a hypnotherapy to quit smoking session?

    Sessions last about an hour and half and we spend about half that time talking about your history of smoking and why you do and going the benefits of your stopping smoking which means that when we do the hypnotherapy part then I know exactly what will work for you. The hypnotherapy is really just a case of closing your eyes and relaxing. You are aware of everything that I am saying and you are always in control. Being relaxed means that you are much more open to suggestion and most clients find that when they open their eyes they already feel that they simply don't want another cigarette. I always record the session and let you have a copy so you can listen at home to reinforce the work we do and it is also a relaxing way to take some time out for yourself, which is something we can all benefit from!
