The worst descision you can make about your smoking habit is to ignore it
Quitting smoking using hypnosis or hypnotherapy seems to be the number one celebrity way to quit smoking in 2010. Kate Moss who we wrote about recently at Ukmedix News has confessed to using hypnotherapy as a smoking cessation tool as have Matt Damon, Ben Affleck and Drew Barrymore.
As a remedy to quit smoking hypnotherapy has had proven results with a certain people. The fact that you are prepared to sit there and pay for a session of hypnosis to quit smoking shows that you are serious and committed about ridding yourself of your harmful habit. On the other hand quitting smoking specialists have warned that hypnotherapy does not just solve the problem for you and that you must also be committed and prepared to make an effort. Walking into a hypnotherapists clinic with the attitude that they will solve your problem for you is not the right way to go about quitting.
Some people have confessed that hypnotherapy did absolutely nothing for them and that they still felt the desire and urge to carry on smoking just as much, however, if you have attempted to quit smoking many times and failed there’s no harm in giving hypnotherapy a go. In fact you should always experiment with different smoking cessation remedies until you find one that works with you. Some people have been successful using smoking cessation medications like Champix, others have relied on nicotine replacement therapy, some have quit cold turkey whereas others gradually reduced their cigarette intake until they learn to live without them.
Talking to people about how they quit smoking can be very inspirational and motivational. On the Ukmedix Forum it is possible to discuss your smoking cessation attempts and pick up quit smoking tips and advice.
The worst descision you can make about your smoking habit is to ignore it and pretend that it’s not really a problem. If you do that it will eventually catch up with you and almost certainly kill you!

I know someone who had sessions with a hypnotherepist and it did absolutely nothing for him. I know it is difficult but in the end one has to be ultra strong and determined to stop, then with lots of help and support around the person it becomes a possibility.

I am a hypnotherapist and I've had many clients stop completely after just one session. I have also had a few clients continue smoking and they did seem to have the attitude that I would solve their own problem for them. We hypnotherapists try to find a root cause of the smoking habit, remove this cause, reinforce positive suggestions and administer subconscious techniques to use. But in the end it is the client who does the real work - we just show them the way.
