Hypnosis and Kicking the habit of Cigarettes (hypnotherapy courses)

By Hypnosis Melbourne

  The wonderful thing about hypnosis is that we can quickly and effectively reprogram that part of us for lasting benefit. Hypnosis is an easy and effective tool. Even a single session can change your life!

Often Hypnotherapy treatments are so effectively, you will have to pinch yourself to make sure you are not dreaming.

Since you have loved smoking so much for so long, and it is a deeply ingrained habit, you will very likely continue to smoke until you can get your subconscious mind onboard in your effort to quit.

Considering the pressure smokers are coming under from all sides these days I am sure that hypnotherapists are finding many people using their services to end their habit. With this book they can get up to

speed with the latest effective techniques to maximise their clients efforts. Hypnosis is an easy, safe way to transform your habitual patterns of thinking so that you can consistently live in your full

potential!

Under the influence of a trained hypnotherapist, you’re supposed to be able to concentrate better, be more open to suggestion and be far less critical about following orders. A typical session lasts anywhere

from half an hour to an hour. To make people aware of Oxford stop smoking hypnosis and hypnotherapy by an experienced hypnotherapist . To eliminate any phobia or phobias using the power of self hypnosis and

hypnotherapy. Fortunately, the answer is no, a hypnotherapist can not make you do anything you don’t want to do. In my experience, many people have a natural concern about hypnosis because they’ve seen stage

hypnotists getting volunteers to do silly things for the sake of entertainment.

Once these suggestions are placed in your subconscious it becomes EASY to stop smoking and a new habit of being a non-smoker is formed. This also means that the urge to smoke will fade away. Many smokers are

focused on the fear of developing lung cancer. While it is true that the risk of death from lung cancer is 12 times greater that if you do not smoke, it turns out that your increased risk of dying from

smoking is largely attributed to heart disease, because if you smoke, your risk of dying from heart disease is 6 times greater than the relatively high risk among non smokers. If youve tried to stop smoking

before and failed, take comfort in the fact that most smokers fail several times before quitting successfully.

The rest is psychological, driven by habitual behaviour, ticking away in the background. This is why so many people struggle when they first decide to stop smoking. Using Hypnosis To Cure Bad Habits such as

smoking, gambling and alcohol is very easy to achieve once the person has been induced into a deep state of hypnosis and the correct techniques are applied.

What is Neuro-Linguistic Programming?
By Tad and Adriana James

  You can use a computer, but…

Perhaps you’ve managed, over the last ten years, to learn how use a personal computer, and now you are computer literate. But how much do you know about what’s going on inside yourself and others? Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) is about just that.

Knowing about what is going on inside yourself and what’s going on inside others! Perhaps you’ve wondered, “How do I communicate better,” or, “How do I get in control of my own personal computer  my brain!” Now, a new technology makes it easy to understand how we think, how we communicate, and how we process emotions!

NLP techniques and processes help us to understand ourselves and others, and to produce new, and more effective ways to:

Attract the right person for you

Create ideal relationships

Advance your career & make more money

Increase motivation and energy

Create your desired self-image

Communicate to produce the kind of results you want

Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) is a behavioral technology, which simply means that it is a set of guiding principles, attitudes, and techniques about real-life behavior, and not a removed, scientific theorem. It allows you to change, adopt or eliminate behaviors, as you desire, and gives you the ability to choose your mental, emotional, and physical states of well-being.

Using NLP In Business:

PEOPLE: In all my days in business, first as a business person, then as a business owner, and finally as a business consultant, I could never understand people. One of my favorite comments which voiced my frustration was to say, “Times are changing, and people won’t do what you tell them to do like they used to!” I really believed that. You see when I started managing people in 1968, as sales manager of a radio station in Syracuse, New York, people could be trusted to do what you said. Ten years later, if I asked someone to do something, they would ask me, Why?” This frustrated me to no end, and I felt as if I would never understand it!

Of course, I know now, that how I communicated to them was the problem, and the answer to my frustration too! More often than not, I would tell them what not to do, or what not to believe. As simple as that sounds, it was a revelation to me when I discovered NLP trainings. I began to tell people what to do, but in a way that the information would make the information acceptable regardless of the content of what I was telling them.

What a change!

MOTIVATION: I used to think that whether or not I was motivated depended on my motivation wasn’t in my control, so if my wife said something to me in the morning, it could ruin my day. My first wife was quite negative, and on the way to work on many days, she would get me so upset that I finally had to ask her to “talk positively or be quiet.” Then, if something happened during the day, it could also ruin my day. When I took my first NLP Practitioner Training, I realized that my motivation is totally under my control, and that I could change what I was feeling about a situation simply by remembering a time that I was totally motivated! What a thought!

RAPPORT: For me, one of the most impactful learnings I got from taking the NLP Practitioner Training was the notion that I could meet with and establish rapport with anyone that I desired. When we were doing business consulting in the early 1980’s, before I learned NLP, we found that we would “sign-up” or “close” about 30% of the people with whom we met. We thought we were doing well at that rate, and that we probably could not do better than that. When I learned NLP, and then taught some key points to the consultants, almost overnight our closing rate climbed to above 90%. By learning NLP, I had dramatically increased my ability to establish rapport with potential clients. Imagine being able to communicate with anyone, and establish rapport with them at will. It totally changed my perspective of what was possible!

HOW PEOPLE DECIDE: We also trained our consultants to discover how people make decisions. Imagine, if you will, that you had an inside track to someone’s decision-making process. What if you could fit your presentation right inside the way they make decisions? Imagine how easy management could become! In NLP, the process by which we do this, is called strategies, and it allows us to understand how people create behaviors, reach decisions, and how they’re reassured that what they’ve done is good.

With NLP, you learn how to grow from every single life experience, thus increasing your ability to create a better quality of life. NLP is a very pragmatic technology based on an ability to produce your desired results, thus allowing you to become proficient at creating the kind of future you want! In the end it is not a lot different from understanding how to program a computer — your own bio-computer.

While many people study NLP and Time Line Therapy techniques for their own personal growth and development, they are also of the utmost value to the professional. Some professions using NLP include Salespeople, Business Executives, Managers, Business Owners, Lawyers, Teachers, Trainers, Counselors, Educators, Doctors, Chiropractors, Massage Therapists, Consultants, Hypnotherapists, Psychologists, Athletes, Entertainers and Performers. Regardless of profession, the majority of NLP participants are searching, and finding, better and more effective ways to increase their performance and improve their effectiveness.

WHAT IS TIME LINE THERAPY?

Throughout history, humankind has been aware of the passage of time. Aristotle was the first to mention the “stream of time” in his book Physics IV. William James spoke of linear memory storage as early as 1890. Finally, the concept, nearly forgotten, was revived in the late 1970’s by the developers of NLP.

In 1985, we began to apply a therapeutic process to this concept of an internal memory storage system. The result was a collection of techniques which produces long-lasting transformation very quickly-faster than what is currently called Brief Therapy. These powerful Time Line Therapy techniques are becoming the method of choice to make fast, effective, long-term changes in behavior.

Your “Time Line” is how you unconsciously store your memories or how you unconsciously know the difference between a memory from the past and a projection of the future. Behavioral change in an individual takes place at an unconscious level. People don’t change consciously. The Time Line Therapy process allows you to work at the unconscious level and release the effects of past negative experiences and change “inappropriate” programming in minutes rather than days, months or years.

After years of development, working with clients and publishing Time Line Therapy and The Basis Personality, the Time Line Therapy model has become known worldwide . It is a revolutionary new approach which has become so popular because of its ability to create quick, long lasting results.

How will studying NLP and Time Line Therapy techniques benefit me? Through using these techniques, your personal happiness and professional success will be much more consistent, and much more predictable. Your effectiveness working with others will be dramatically increased, and your ability to empower yourself for optimum results will be increased. You will be able to generate empowering emotional states within yourself at will, eliminate any negative emotions or limiting decisions, identify and change limiting beliefs, inspire yourself with a compelling future that will have much better chances of coming true, and create patterns of excellence from any role model you choose.

Achieving Professional Excellence. Whether you’re already succeeding in your profession, having some difficulties, or if you’re transitioning into a new position, NLP and Time Line Therapy techniques can help you achieve, maintain and enhance excellence.

If you understand computers, you already understand how NLP works! Computers are about man-machine interface. NLP is about mind-body interface. The entire process is very similar! Maybe it’s time to learn about your own personal computer — your mind!

Hypnosis Can Break Your Cigarette Smoking Habit Right Now
By Alan Densky

  Quitting smoking is a necessity at this point in history, because cigarettes have been banned from restaurants and other public places. And in fact, it is the smart thing to do for more reasons than good health alone. This commentary explores the very best NLP methodologies that can be used to make it as painless as possible to break the addiction to tobacco.

There are three individual factors to a smoking addiction. Two of the parts are mental, and one part is physical.

Part A: YOU SMOKE FOR RELAXATION AND PLEASURE.

When you were a toddler and you became cranky, your mother would put a nipple into your mouth to calm you down. You would get distracted, become calmer, and often go to sleep. That scenario was repeated many, many times so that your unconscious mind was programmed: When something goes into your mouth, you get relaxation and pleasure from it.

Now that you are a grownup, if you feel tense or anxious, you crave something in your mouth for relaxation and pleasure - a smoke!

Part B: SMOKING IS A CONDITIONED RESPONSE.

Remember Pavlov? He rang a bell every time that he fed his dogs. After a few repetitions, all he had to do was to ring the bell, and that would make the dogs salivate.

When you connect smoking with any other action, the other action will trigger cravings for a cigarette and a feeling of urgency that makes you want to smoke. This is called a conditioned response.

For example: If you light-up a cigarette when you see a cup of coffee, you will automatically get an urge to light-up a cigarette each time you have a cup of coffee.

Here is exactly how this conditioned response gets programmed into your subconscious: If a person lights-up a cigarette and simultaneously drinks a cup of coffee, the mind takes a snapshot of the cigarette in the hand, and connects it to the cup of coffee. Thereafter, every time the person has a cup of coffee, her subconscious mind fills in the missing part of the picture. It flashes an image of the cigarette, and the smoker gets a craving for a cigarette.

You may be unaware of the mental picture of the cigarette, because it may only be at the subconscious level of mind. Just as you are unaware of what you are seeing through your peripheral vision until something or someone draws your attention to it. But the image is there, creating a craving for a cigarette.

Part C: THERE IS A PHYSICAL ADDICTION TO NICOTINE, BUT . . .

I’ve worked face-to-face with several thousand people who smoke and I give you my guarantee that the physical addiction is the weakest part of the habit. In fact, I believe that it is only ten percent of the addiction to tobacco. I believe that ninety percent of the addiction are the mental and emotional parts! (Parts A and B).

HERE IS WHAT THIS MEANS TO A SMOKER WHO WANTS TO QUIT.

After you have eliminated the anxiety that pushes a smoker to smoke a cigarette to create relaxation and pleasure (Part A) . . . and when you erase the conditioned response of feeling an urge for cigarettes when having a cup of coffee, driving, or finishing a meal, etc. (Part B) . . . then you can break the addiction to tobacco without requiring willpower, and without having to experience withdrawal symptoms or weight-gain.

Self Hypnosis can help motivate a smoker to quit. Hypnosis will make it easy to break the addiction to tobacco because it takes care of Parts A & B! Here is how:

Part A is where people light-up for relaxation and pleasure. It’s your thoughts which create feelings of tension. More exactly, people constantly watch mental movies in their mind’s eye. If the movie is negative, it manufactures a feeling of anxiety.

We can use different NLP and Hypnosis methods to program the subconscious to automatically take those anxiety producing mental pictures, and instantly exchange them for relaxation producing mental pictures and movies. This produces relaxation and pleasure, and obliterates the anxiety that creates the oral compulsions and cravings for a cigarette.

Because of the elimination of stressful feelings, the smoker who is quitting doesn’t feel the compulsion or need to substitute food in place of the cigarettes. So quitting without weight gain is possible.

Part B is where people light-up because smoking becomes a conditioned response to many different activities and locations. Remember in the earlier example how smoking became unconsciously associated with other activities and environments so that each time you get into that activity or environment, the mind flashes an image of a cigarette, and the image of the cigarette causes cravings for a cigarette?

There are powerful NLP and hypnosis methods that can effortlessly eliminate those conditioned responses so that a person’s unconscious mind will lose the cravings for cigarettes, and the compulsion to smoke. As a matter of fact, you can even get a compulsion to reject the cigarettes.

IN SUMMATION

In summary, when we use certain hypnotic techniques, it becomes very easy to stop smoking without weight gain or having to suffer from withdrawal. And many of these hypnotic techniques don’t even require post-hypnotic suggestions. They depend on training the subconscious mind to use the same mental processes that the subconscious is using to create the addiction to cigarettes, to eliminate the mental addiction.
