Is it possible to stop smoking with hypnosis? Absolutely. The key is that you take action and get motivated to try it out. The fact that you are researching the idea is good, but now you need to follow that up with decisive action. It does no good to think about different techniques for quitting smoking if you do not take action on them. The worst thing you can do is to just allow yourself to keep smoking without pushing yourself to quit. Therefore if you have an idea about quitting smoking, such as trying hypnosis or the gum or the patch or whatever, it is important that you act on that idea and take action. Is it expensive to do so? No it is not…it is actually cheaper to spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars on quitting smoking than it is to continue to smoke. If you continue smoking you will waste over a thousand dollars each year, plus you will be building up huge medical bills in the future due to what you are doing to your health. The only sensible option is to throw everything you have into quitting.
Now if you are going to try hypnosis to stop smoking then you should give yourself every advantage and use some other techniques along with it in order to give yourself the best odds of success. There are 2 super strategies that you can use that will go along great with hypnosis and they will not cost you a penny. Both of them are a bit of a challenge to pull off but if you want to quit then you will have to make the sacrifice.
1) Start exercising every day. Everybody whines about having to do this but if you follow through with it then you will double your chances of staying off the cigarettes long term. You can just walk every day but if you do then make sure you walk briskly and for at least 30 minutes. This is critical in making your body feel better when it does not have the nicotine to boost you. Start this before you quit smoking and continue doing it forever.
Exercise every day. No excuses.
2) Do not allow yourself to sleep for at least 36 hours after you smoke your last cigarette. Drink plenty of fluids and juices during this time to help flush the nicotine out of your body. When you get to the 36 hour mark, go to sleep. When you wake up your nicotine withdrawals will basically be over and you will be feeling better already.
Now if you’ll excuse me, my wife hypnotized me this morning and insisted that I go find some new aluminum patio covers for the house! Catch you all later…..
