What Way Will You Choose To Quit Smoking?

There are many sites today offer many ways to quit smoking , many of the same or similar , some very different. Today 1-800-QUITNOW government hotline receives record number of calls. From 2004 to 2010, the total number of calls received was just under three million. So far this year 2011, there were more than six hundred thousand more calls! Clearly, more Americans than ever are looking for a way to end their habit / addiction to cigarettes once and for all, stop smoking.

To quit smoking, stop smoking really , you have to find the right solution to your problem . Many people are looking to leave with the nicotine patch. The theory is that if the nicotine patch is used, and withdraws from nicotine using less nicotine patches at the end gradually cravings disappeared. The rate of success of this system is terribly small ( 1). In fact , it is similar (or less) than trying to quit " cold turkey . " This tells us that the urge to smoke can not find the nicotine addiction . Admittedly, this is a part of the syndrome, but maybe not all that, or the system would be 100% success for each use of smoking . But it is not . Not even close . Many less than 10%

The same is true for those who choose to use nicotine gum . It is the saturated nicotine gum in varying amounts , used to remove the nicotine addiction . But nicotine gum is not more effective than it is nicotine patch ( 2).

One of the oldest programs to stop smoking is using hypnosis program . Hypnotists have for decades been taking money from those who believe that hypnosis smoking cessation program will help once and for all to quit. However, after a clinical hypnotherapist in the clinic of the oldest and largest in the United States perhaps hypnosis, I can say that even though I believe that hypnosis should be part of an effective campaign to stop smoking , most hypnotists do not know how to properly use hypnosis to get your customers to stop smoking. Thus, the end result is that the use of a hypnosis program to quit smoking is rarely successful in the long term .

In fact , Kerry Packer, who was , until his death in 2005, the richest man in Australia and one of the world's billionaires , reportedly paid Marshall Sylver a hypnotist world renowned for $ 100,000 a single session hypnosis to help him quit smoking. It was not . Kerry Packer did not stop smoking through hypnosis.

To leave now, which is a smoker to do is to begin to answer the central question that drives the desire to continue smoking cigarettes . Stopping smoking by hypnosis , hypnosis must be applied correctly. Do not focus on the present, ie the subject who no longer want to smoke cigarettes or begin to taste the rotten eggs or something like that. What the hypnotist needs to do is focus on the past, to the time when the subject first decided to become a smoker. This point, the exact smokers almost always children no more than fourteen times , often at the age of ten , children began to hypnotize to become smokers.

It is my firm belief that every smoker , everyone is in a state of hypnosis. They hypnotized become smokers because after all, hypnotist worthy to tell you that all hypnosis is self-hypnosis. Not a capture process like the old Dracula movies suggest , but a process that leads . In other words , the hypnotist takes the subject in a state of mind in which the subject accepts and internalizes the suggestions of the hypnotist. But the hypnotist does not issue orders, while offering suggestions that the subject may or may not choose to follow .

When someone tries to quit after a decade or more after the start , most often fail, then believe this is because they have the desire to overcome addiction . Most see it as a weakness of character. This is not true. What is certain is that their inability to stop smoking simply exercise his will is a testament to the commitment they made to themselves to become a smoker in the first place . They hypnotized to start smoking , and to reverse the hypnosis at the subconscious level to end. To stop smoking, stop smoking successfully and never want to start smoking is psychological state of the person who previously committed to becoming a smoker .

I know there are those who smoke are going to say, " I'm not hypnotized ! " But have you ever been hypnotized ? You know what I feel hypnotized ? Tell me this . Anyone who is not in an altered state of consciousness (which is one step away from reality) knowingly make a bad poison chemically treated grass , wrapped in chemically treated toxic, light the fire and breathing toxic fumes of fire as much as two hundred times a day (twenty times ten cigarettes drag each) every day of your life for ten , twenty, thirty years or more , knowing that the end result could be a costly and prolonged painful death and believe they are experiencing a kind of "pleasure" pay dearly to do so, and not be in a state of hypnosis ?

Nobody starts smoking because they want to enjoy the taste of a cigarette. Someone I 've never heard of that enjoyed the first cigarette , especially after inhaling the first time. I know you have not . I became almost instant nausea and vomiting . I was stunned and in ten years, I decided that smoking was not for me.

However, four years later, after teaming up with three other guys my age in my new school , and dearly wish to become part of their "gang" , I thought I should become a smoker as they were. I clearly remember wondering what I call the " fundamental question " . I remember where I was and what I felt . The question was: " Do you really want to be a smoker " course after some consideration , I said : "Yes" , and then proceeded to inhale the cigarette he had just lighted , hiding stolen from my parents, I got sick and I waited until it passes , then again , until I could do it without feeling like vomiting. It took only a few days before I smoked like my new friends, make smoke rings and " look cool " .

I, like most smokers interviewed over the years of my work as a coach to quit smoking , started smoking for three main reasons . are

1) If only adults smoke and smoke, I seem to be more mature, "looking adults. " But this is only true for younger than me . For real people , just like a dumb kid trying to look older .

2 ) My friends do, and if you want to be more like my friends , I will start smoking like them. Next, it will be accepted by them. I do not really think I would have accepted more or less accepted that chose not to become a smoker , but that was my thinking at the time.

3) Smoking is sexy. In the movies , I saw James Dean , Humphrey Bogart, Elizabeth Taylor and many other sex symbols smoking and "sexy and cool " look. I wanted to be like them , to be more sexually attractive . After all, John Wayne was cigarette advertising on television. If " El Duque " said that it was what to do , who was I to believe otherwise. And add to that, all the adults in my family smokes. ( And with the exception of my mother, who died of a car accident at 43 , all died of smoking-related cancers . ) So , smoking was simply a right of passage to adulthood in my life in the fifties .

So, let's examine . I chose to smoke cigarettes to look more mature . I attached the behavior of my sense of maturity. I chose to smoke cigarettes to be closer to my friends , most have accepted. I attached the behavior of my sense of social acceptance. I chose to smoke cigarettes to appear more sexually attractive. I attached the behavior of my sense of sexuality. And I did three things to be the most critical in the development of my point, I established my inner self image . I decided who and what I was in the world, what my values ​​are, and how they wish to behave in the future . One facet of this picture was ... was and still is a cigarette smoker .

When I finally woke up to the reality that smoking was a silly thing antisocial , expensive and a little more to do than a decade later, I discovered that I could not just stop taking this decision. I could not stop using any desire I had. I stopped trying for another five years .

But now , nearly thirty years , I asked another key issue. It seemed silly, even for me at this time. But I asked myself seriously , and I looked for the answer. This question was: " How can I stop smoking, stop smoking forever , and still not deny me a cigarette every time I smoke one? "

Eventually I found the answer , in fact, many of them. I developed a process for me that I could smoke every cigarette I wanted, and I looked, step by step, day by day , week by week , losing my cravings. Today, I did not want to smoke a cigarette ever, something that has left suddenly can honestly say . It with me to success - hypnotized to be a smoker . I am awake to what is smoking and the human body.

What I discovered along the way was present. Smoking is not yet the real problem. The problem is the urge to smoke . This desire is at the heart of the dependence of each smoker . To stop smoking, stop smoking forever really, you have to deal with this critical issue. Must not lose the desire to smoke . Then the cigarettes are gone forever .

We can not change the past, but we can change how we remember and how these memories affect our lives today.

Smoking cessation is not necessary to try to focus on the symptom of the problem , smoking . To stop smoking, you need to work on the theme of road symptoms , desire to smoke. Once you remove this incredibly strong hypnotic suggestion implanted in his psyche there many years , the symptom , smoking, it is gone forever .
