No Ifs ands or Butts

The decision to quit smoking can be a major turning point in the life of a smoker. The touted benefits such as improved health, social interaction, sweeter smell and the savings are not to be missed, however these considerations were hardly the factors that will keep the smoker from smoking. Real change has to start within the person--there has to be a fundamental shift in their desire to want to continue the behavior. I have seen individuals smoke 3 packs a day who have quit cold turkey. I have spoken with mothers who stopped successfully while pregnant or nursing without a drop of resistance. I have also seen people continue to smoke while on the nicotine patch and in smoking cessation discussion groups. Caveat; If you want to learn how to stop--chances are the odds of your successfully quitting improve if you are not discussing your cravings with other smokers.(just a suggestion) What separates those who say they want to quit from those who do quit? Willpower! Those who do quit are not "trying to quit" they are determined to quit. Those who do quit are not quitting because their partner wants them to, they are not quitting because they are ostracized at work--They quit because the physical, emotional, social, or actual cost has gotten too high to continue the behavior. They decide for themselves the time has come to stop. That is when Hypnosis is highly effective--it is the meeting of willpower and mind power and the results are nothing short of life changing. When right thinking is applied--individuals are invincible! Hypnosis is the how, not the why, in an individuals quest to become a non-smoker. I cannot convince you of why you should or ought to want to quit--but I can and will help you achieve your goal of successfully quitting once and for all. Hypnosis is scientifically proven to help individuals quit and remain nonsmokers for life. The decision should be yours and yours alone--when you are ready--contact Soul Centered Health for more information.
