Help to Quit Smoking with Hypnotherapy in Brighton*
Are you a smoker who has promised yourself that this is the last cigarette from the very last packet of cigarettes, time after time? Being free of any habit is a challenge, but even more so when this involves a highly addictive substance such as nicotine. The intense cravings for nicotine however will generally ease after only a few days and hypnotherapy in Brighton at the Conway Practice in Brighton can help you to not only prepare for these initial withdrawal symptoms, but also to deal with the habit of smoking.*
Sessions in hypnosis will focus on managing your stress and anxiety levels which often a trigger a need for a cigarette, identifying certain situations and times of the day when your automatic response is to smoke.* You may in fact be psychologically dependent on cigarettes as a prop to make you feel better when you’re out of your comfort zone and need to appear more confident and in control.
Understanding the associated factors of what led you to start smoking can be a good indication of why you find it difficult to break the habit. Perhaps you were influenced by family or friends who were considered as role models and you didn’t want to feel like an outsider. Even though the majority of smokers would admit to it being unhealthy, smoking is still a social habit and often a way to bond with fellow smokers. Hypnotherapy can help to improve your confidence and self-esteem, no longer needing to mirror the habits of peer groups in order to fit in and be accepted.*
At the Conway Practice, Jonathan will tailor a personal plan to help you stop smoking, addressing both the physical addiction and the psychological habit.* You will understand how you can use alternative ways to handle difficult situations and negative feelings without the need for a cigarette. You will be able to set a goal for becoming a non-smoker, visualising how much fitter and healthier you will feel.* Hypnosis is a completely safe and medication-free therapy *
