QUIT VAPING WITH HYPNOTHERAPY FOR A HEALTHIER, SMOKE-FREE YOU

Hypnotherapy has shown its effective tool in aiding individuals to quit smoking and vaping. The primary aim of hypnotherapy is to support behavioural, attitudinal, and belief modifications linked to smoking or vaping by tapping into the subconscious mind..

It's important to note that individual responses to hypnotherapy can vary, and success is influenced by motivation and commitment.

Hypnotherapy for smoking and vaping brings a range of benefits, including targeted behavioural changes, reduced cravings, and effective stress management. By identifying and addressing triggers, individuals gain valuable tools to make conscious choices, while the process enhances motivation and reinforces the commitment to quit. Hypnotherapy provides a personalised and complementary approach, often resulting in fewer withdrawal symptoms and contributing to a positive mindset conducive to a smoke-free or vape-free lifestyle. The individualised nature of hypnotherapy makes it a valuable tool in a comprehensive strategy for smoking and vaping cessation, offering support tailored to each person's unique journey.

Hypnotherapy for quitting smoking and vaping involves guiding individuals into a state where the unconscious mind becomes receptive to positive suggestions. In this hypnotic state we will address the behavioural, attitudinal, and belief patterns linked to smoking or vaping. Visualisation techniques and tailored suggestions aim to reinforce the commitment to a smoke-free or vape-free lifestyle. Triggers contributing to the habit are identified and addressed, and ongoing support is provided to solidify positive changes.

The number of hypnotherapy sessions needed to quit smoking can vary from person to person. On average, one to three hypnotherapy sessions are all that is needed to address smoking cessation effectively.

The success of hypnotherapy for quitting smoking is influenced by factors such as the individual's level of motivation, commitment to change, and responsiveness to the hypnotic suggestions.

Some people may find significant improvement and successfully quit smoking after a limited number of sessions, while others may choose additional sessions to reinforce positive changes or address specific challenges.

I provide audio recordings of the hypnosis segments from your sessions, serving as a valuable resource to enhance success and assist in navigating any challenges that may arise along the journey.

The conscious mind represents a relatively small portion of our cognitive processes, often estimated to be around 5-10% of our mental activity. This is the part of our mind responsible for immediate awareness, decision-making, and active thinking.

Conversely, the unconscious mind, which includes various levels of awareness, memories, emotions, and automatic processes, is believed to make up the majority, accounting for roughly 90-95% of our mental activity. It plays a significant role in shaping our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, often outside our immediate awareness.

Hypnotherapy, as I practice it, amalgamates elements of Strategic Psychotherapy and NLP, all facilitated through the use of Clinical Hypnosis. This blended approach enables a more relaxed and expedited pathway to absorb new information or insights. It is a valuable tool for addressing a wide array of issues, foremost among them being anxiety.

Hypnosis is a state where you are relaxed and your mind is open to take on new suggestions. Hypnosis occurs when the brain hoovers in-between the states know as Alpha (relaxation) and Theta (deep mediation and light sleep), this is where you have a strong internal focus. If you have ever practised meditation or mindfulness, or found yourself day-dreaming, zoning out while driving, running or become absorbed in a movie, Netflix or a book, you will have already been in a hypnotic trance state.

Everyone does hypnosis in their own way, some find it deeply relaxing, others don’t and that’s ok. Nearly everyone can be hypnotised. We go into this hypnotic, trance state regularly throughout our day just doing our routine everyday tasks.

There are a number of difference:

It is a brief therapy, which means unlike many therapies we would look to have a significant outcome in 4-6 sessions for Anxiety, not 20+ sessions.

It is directive, we don’t wait for you to come up with solution, we are goal oriented, and by working together we will find out how you are doing your problem and how best to resolve it.

We are focussed on the present and future, if you want to rehash your past and understand why you do something this is not the right therapy for you. Your past is of course important but it is unchangeable, and so to make lasting change we will focus how you are doing your problem and what you can change in your present and future
