Stop Smoking with Hypnosis

Hypnosis makes it easy to quit smoking.....It perplexes me greatly why so many people who are stuck in the horrible cycle of smoking dependency will not use hypnosis to stop smoking? In about 2 hours, your smoking problem is over, once and for all!
What are you waiting for?
A pack a day smoker spends about $3,500 a year doing something that could potentially kill them, yet balk at the investment to quit smoking using hypnosis.
Hypnosis has a proven success rate over all other methods of 50%! AND NO harmful side-effects! My proven program, has a success rate of 90%, as it is customized to each person, and I use a variety of tools and behavioral science to make it easy to quit.
Did you know?
Nicotine replacement therapies like Nicorette and Nicoderm CQ patch pump about 41 packs of cigarettes worth of nicotine into your blood stream? That's right! Yet, each smoker I talk to, shares the same story.....they still want to smoke, sometimes even taking off the patch to have a cigarette! Nicotine replacement programs do NOT work! They have about a 17-21% success rate and that includes counseling... Last time I looked, there wasn't a counselor inside that box! LOL
The Cost of Nicotine Replacement: $38-$138 per program.
Nicotine is one of the most toxic poisons on our planet and if you injected it straight into your veins, you would drop dead instantly....Smoking while using the patch is a recipe for disaster, maybe even a heart attack or stroke.
EVERYONE wants the Magic Pill to Solve Problems...
Wellbutrin, Chantix and other medications are dangerous, plain and simple. One of the side-effects of using these methods to quit smoking is life-long depression!!! OMG! Some have experienced some success with these anti-depressants, but for whatever reason, it doesn't last! I personally do not believe it is worth the risk.
From the Chantix Website: Some people have had new or worse mental health problems, such as changes in behavior or thinking, aggression, hostility, agitation, depressed mood, or suicidal thoughts or actions while taking or after stopping CHANTIX. These symptoms happened more often in people who had a history of mental health problems. Stop taking CHANTIX and call your healthcare provider right away if you, your family, or caregiver notice any of these symptoms. Before starting CHANTIX, tell your healthcare provider if you ever had depression or other mental health problems.
Some people have had seizures during treatment with CHANTIX. Tell your healthcare provider if you have a history of seizures. If you have a seizure, stop taking CHANTIX and contact your healthcare provider right away. Here is the link to read more: https://www.chantix.com/
The average retail price of Chantix is approximately $523.99 for 56, 0.5MG Tablet. Using our Chantix coupons below, you could pay a reduced prescription cost of $441.79 at a local pharmacy that partners with SingleCare.
VeryWellMind.com: the success rate was 21 percent for the patch, 19 percent for Chantix, and 20 percent for the combination method. Other research has also shown that a combination of Chantix and the nicotine patch was more effective than using Chantix alone, though more studies are needed.
What's Involved with Hypnosis to Stop Smoking?
During a Stop Smoking Hypnosis Session....you are coached to come in prepared to quit once and for all. You will dispose of your cigarettes or bring them into your appointment. You will then go through a consultation process, where I will spend time getting to know you, your triggers, etc. Then I will explain why it's been so difficult for you to quit and how now it will be easy. I also go over all aspects of hypnosis and how it works, so you will feel comfortable and confident by the time we do the actual Hypnosis Session.
Your Quit Smoking Hypnosis Session is FUN, you're relaxed, you feel groovy, and when you leave you feel better than when you came in.....NO Harmful Side-effects EVER!
I love to take a teaching approach to everything I do and you will walk out with some new skills that will potentially help you in every area of life.
You will also have an opportunity to ask about other Hypnotherapy Self-Improvement Programs if that interests you.
The Guarantee!
The BEST part about my program is that most people stop smoking after their session, however, I am aware that we are all human and we trick ourselves sometimes...if that is you....then you will have the confidence to know, that if you need it, you can come back in for a back-up session...that is my guarantee!
Chantix, Nicotine Replacement Therapies....they DO NOT offer any kind of assurance or guarantee...I wonder why that is?
Still Not Convinced? Check out These Studies:
A 2007 study from researchers at the American College of Chest Physicians compared hypnosis to nicotine replacement therapy. Fifty percent of patients who were treated in the hypnotherapy group were still quit at 26 weeks compared to just 15.78 percent in the nicotine replacement group. Patients who underwent NRT and hypnotherapy also experienced a 50-percent success rate at 26 weeks.
A 1994 study published in Psychological Reports examined hypnotherapy’s effectiveness combined with aversion therapy. In the study, 93 male and 93 female participants underwent a cessation program combining both methods. After three months, nearly 90 percent of both groups were abstaining from smoking.
In 2001, a study published in the International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis examined the effectiveness of hypnosis and a rapid smoking protocol for cessation. The results: Of the 43 smokers who underwent treatment, 39 remained smoke-free after 6 months.
One More Thing...Uncle Sam gets involved in a positive way. I know...can you believe it?
Using Hypnosis to Stop Smoking....the IRS, that's right, the U.S. Government gives you a tax credit when you use Hypnosis to Stop Smoking! (check with your accountant as laws may change.) And, if you have an HSA (Health Savings Account,) you can use those tax free funds for your program. (we'll give you the info. when you come in for your appointment.)
You cannot do this with other methods, only hypnosis or group counseling.
Are You Ready to Quit? Then let's get your appointment on the books...In about 2 hours, you are a NON-Smoker, once and for all! Yay! What are you waiting for? STOP making excuses and get in here!
