Giving up Smoking with Hypnotherapy in Harley Street*
Breaking any habit can not only be challenging but also very stressful, even more so if it’s been part of your life for a considerable time. Smoking is a particularly difficult habit to break as the body also has to adjust to the physical symptoms of nicotine withdrawal. Hypnotherapy can help you to stop smoking safely and naturally without the use of medication or the need to replace a cigarette with tobacco substitutes.*
During hypnotherapy sessions at the Conway Practice in Harley Street, Jonathan Conway will help you to recognise why you have found it so difficult to quit smoking and how the habit first started.* You may have become a smoker quite unintentionally; perhaps accepting a cigarette from a friend and then buying your own packet to return the gesture. When everyone around you is smoking, the social influence of wanting to fit in with the crowd is common, making it all the more difficult to stop. Bad habits are often a means of coping with boredom, stress or low self-esteem and smoking is no exception.* Although nicotine withdrawal will actually last a relatively short time, breaking the habit of smoking requires dealing with the deeper issues.*
Hypnosis can help you to appreciate why you continue with a habit even though you know it may be harmful to your health and limit enjoyment of certain physical activities* You will be able to recognise the triggers which compel you to smoke and to find new routines, different rewards and positive ways in which to change your behaviour instead of reaching for a cigarette.* Using hypnotherapy in Harley Street, Jonathan Conway will show you how to look ahead and visualise how you can respond differently when faced with a situation where you would previously have craved tobacco.* You will begin to focus on your future as a non-smoker, with the understanding that bad habits really don’t have to last a lifetime.*
