Withdrawal management
The mind is powerful, so when you have been providing the body with nicotine and suddenly remove this, your mind will take over and ensure that every part of your body craves this, whether it is through reasoning, validation on why smoking is not that bad, and even physical symptoms such as frustration, increased heart rate, fatigue and many more. The good news is that these withdrawals do not last forever and the longer you remove nicotine from your body the shorter and farther apart they will become. Hypnosis can assist by overriding the mind's process with withdrawals and assist in changing this mindset, to allow for better withdrawal management and less chance of returning to the habit.
Natural Approach
There are many drugs available on the market that can assist with quitting smoking, unfortunately, all of these come with an array of side effects themselves and can also have adverse effects on those consuming them. Hypnosis offers a natural and more holistic way to kick the habit without the reliance on chemicals. Through the power of the subconscious mind, we can begin to change the way we think about smoking and as a result allow for an easier time quitting. This ensures that your chances of returning to smoking down the line are reduced and reduces the physical symptoms that often accompany quitting smoking.
Tools to manage cravings.
Regardless of hypnosis, cravings may come and go. It is during those times of intense cravings that we so often buckle to the pressure and return to smoking. While hypnosis can assist in changing the mind's thought process surrounding this habit, it does not always eliminate the cravings. Over and above the sessions, we ensure to provide our customers with the necessary tools to handle these cravings and overcome them. The tools we provide will depend on each client as we understand what works for one, may not always work for the other.
Sustainability
On average 7 out of 10 smokers who quit, will re-start the process within a year, this goes to show just how difficult it can be to do. Often people who quit smoking are not doing it in a way that allows for sustainable success. Available drugs on the market can make it easier but you cannot remain on them and when you are done with the course of medication, the temptation does not go anywhere. Hypnosis does not just address kicking the habit, but the psychological attachment to smoking, this approach ensures that we are healing and repairing the root cause and as a result will ensure higher success in clients wanting to quit.
