What does it take to succeed
using hypnosis to stop smoking?
The number of hypnosis sessions you go through is important,
according to Randy Gilchrist, Psy.D |
Randy Gilchrist, Psy.D, offers a hypnosis product the "Non-Smokers
Edge" for $149.00. He refers to the Handbook of Hypnotic
Suggestions and Metaphors, by Hammond, D.C. (1990) where it talks
about your chances of success with a single hypnosis session.
In that Handbook, it says that research studies indicate that one
single hypnosis treatment to stop smoking resulted in about 25%
success......opposed to about 66% of those who went through 4-5
sessions of hypnosis to help stop smoking.
But how realistic are those percentages? As you learn more
about quit smoking studies that aren't widely publicized, you start
to look at some success percentages with a critical eye.
Take a look into the future of your quit
with these quit smoking study results.
While researching I came across several studies that
were more in line with what I've personally seen around me. While
you read the following ask yourself, "how many people do you
know personally who have stayed quit successfully for more
than several months?" What does the reality of
your life tell you?
- National Health Institutes sites tells us about a study where
126 people tried to quit a second time with nicotine replacement
therapy, gum, patches, etc. And 98% failed!
- PR Web release article headline "Are nicotine weaning products
a bad joke?" was about a study review published in Tobacco
Control that combined and averaged nicotine replacement therapy
studies - 93% of nicotine patch & gum participants were smoking
again within 6 months!
- A study of the California Tobacco Surveys of 1992, 1996 and
1999 concluded that nicotine replacement therapy's were "no
longer effective in increasing long-term successful cessation...".
(Was it ever? How could it go from effective to no longer effective?)
- The National Institute on Drug Abuse site tells you "less
than 7 percent of smokers who try to quit achieve more than 1
year of abstinence...(and)...most smokers relapse within a few
days of attempting to quit."
This is not meant to stop you from trying to quit! But it's
important you know your odds of success - ahead of time - with "standard"
ways to quit smoking, in case you decide to go that way.
And you may consider these "standard" ways to quit smoking
when you see that using hypnosis to stop smoking means dealing with
some issues. Issues that may cause you to fall into NRT include:
- hypnosis treatments can be expensive - especially if your're
doing several sessions...
- it may be a problem finding a hypnotist who really knows what
their doing...
- you have to make the time to go to his office and go through
it (maybe for several sessions)...
- and you have to go under a trance - a problem with many people.
To improve your chances of success in your quit,
take these important lessons from using hypnosis to stop smoking.
Dr. Charles E. Henderson, Ph.D. has written several books on hypnotism.
He did his graduate work at University of New Mexico and got his
MA and Ph.D. at the University of Denver.
He has a page online about "good things to know about hypnosis",
where interestingly he tells you that "all hypnosis is self-hypnosis".
Even if you're being hypnotized by someone else or by a prerecorded
tape to "talk you into a hypnotic state".
And if you decide to try "self-hypnosis" keep in mind
Dr. Henderson emphasizes that self-hypnosis is a skill, not unlike
learning a musical instrument. If you decide to take this
route, he suggests that 20 minutes to an hour of self-hypnosis practice
per day is probably an optimum length of time.
The powerful
force behind hypnosis and
how you can use that powerful force
without using hypnosis to stop smoking.
Suggestion's, Dr.
Henderson says, are the powerful force to using hypnosis (or self-hypnosis)
to stop smoking. Because they are what directs the subconscious
to achieving your chosen goals.
And he say's that they have
to be:
- specific and
"technically correct",
- applied regularly
and
- under the right conditions.
Without these 3 critical points addressed, hypnosis or self-hypnosis
can't be expected to achieve very spectacular results. As
noted by in a testimonial on the Divinity Publishing website...
-
"the affirmations popped into my head at the appropriate moment
and helped me get over the need for a cigarette. It wasn't all a
bed of roses, it wasn't a miracle cure, as I had a tough time going
through nicotine withdrawal on day 3
but
"
If those suggestions don't
follow the 3 critical points noted above you should expect
to have to deal with at least some of the nasty's of quitting smoking
with "standard" self-hypnosis CD workbooks and suggestions.
The power of the right suggestions - applied in just the right
way - under the right conditions. Now we get to the
important stuff! Now you get to learn the connection
between the special technique you read about earlier and using hypnosis
to stop smoking.
Where the power of hypnosis resides and how you can tap into that
power without going into a trance!
Here's where the power of hypnosis to stop smoking
and this "special technique" to quit smoking meet.
If you reviewed the quit
smoking breakthrough you have an idea of the power
that suggestions have when they are -
- technically correct,
- applied with regularity and
- applied in the "right" conditions.
And if you reviewed the quit smoking breakthrough you know how
the results can be absolutely, overpoweringly, astounding.
This quit smoking breakthrough has only 4 suggestions.
They aren't used with trance practice, but they are
- so specifically developed to quit smoking, and
- applied under exactly the right conditions, and
- with religious regularity ---
so that when you throw away your last pack of cigarettes you instantly
feel like you've never smoked a single cigarette.
In your entire life.
Never an urge, not a single craving for another cigarette. Ever.
Not even a thought!
Imagine all the experiences that would normally have you reaching
to light up another cigarette.
Experiences like -
- the tensions you deal with day in and day out, at the job, at
home, dealing with traffic,
- being around your friends and others while they're smoking,
at work, at a club, or just out,
- finishing a meal, (how long have you been having your
"after meal cigarette"?),
- having a cup of coffee, or a drink.
- what else to you do where you always have that smoking cigarette
in your hand?
Now imagine after going through your very worst day
full of all those and more - with each scenario playing itself out
in agonizing detail - and suddenly realizing at the end of the day
- smoking never entered your mind! Not even once!
Never mind that there weren't any urge's, or cravings, or emotional
trauma from not being able to smoke - you never even thought
about smoking! Not a all! That's what happens when you
use the power of hypnosis to stop smoking - without the trance -
when you use the Quit
Smoking Breakthrough.
Imagine your worst experiences going on around you
- imagine the very worst experiences that would be driving you
insane to have another cigarette
- imagine a sweet smelling freshly lit cigarette laying right
in front of you ready for you to take
- now imagine you having
no thoughts or feelings about that cigarette whatsoever!
This is the power of using suggestions that are technically
correct, applied with regularity and in the "right"
conditions. This is the power of using hypnosis to stop
smoking without the hassle of hypnosis!
