Quit smoking

There are many reasons why people, especially younger adolescents, start smoking. Some first-time smokers started out of curiosity. Due to the pressure of their peers, they may dare to accept their group with friends. Some young people like to break the rules and resist the pleasure of parents or teachers.

Whatever their cause, nicotine takes only ten seconds to absorb into the bloodstream. This causes the brain to release adrenaline, producing a sizzle of pleasure and energy. Nicotine is a naturally occurring drug in tobacco that is highly addictive. Studies have shown that nicotine can be as addictive as heroin, cocaine or alcohol.

Happiness and energy quickly disappear, making people feel tired and depressed. Since the body can be highly resistant to nicotine, more nicotine is needed to maintain this euphoria. This will eventually lead to addiction. When the body lacks nicotine, the levels of dopamine and norepinephrine change, making people feel anxious, depressed and irritated. Nicotine cravings can be very strong, making it difficult to quit smoking.

There are many ways to quit smoking. Some people chose the "cold Turkey" approach, suddenly and without outside help. However, this is not ideal because there are only about four to seven [4 – 7%] successes. Counseling and behavioral therapy are another form of helping a person quit smoking. There is also nicotine replacement therapy, which just helps a person quit smoking. The goal here is to end the nicotine addiction, so this approach does not fully achieve its purpose. Drugs that help with cravings and withdrawal symptoms can also be prescribed by a doctor. Telling friends and family members that getting their support is a great help to make the change a success.

A safer, non-invasive, drug-free and side-effect-free treatment for smoking cessation is through hypnosis. Hypnotherapy is a natural way to help you achieve the behavioral changes you want. It's worth noting that hypnotherapy can't let you do things you don't want to do. So if you don't want to quit, don't worry, hypnotists won't let you stop smoking without your consent. As explained by the American Association of Professional Hypnotherapists: “Hypnosis is just a state of relaxation. This is a natural state. In fact, each of us enters a state – sometimes called a state of paralysis – at least every day. Twice: once when we were asleep, once we woke up."

Smoking, like all habits, is a reaction controlled by the subconscious mind. Consciously, we all know that smoking is bad for us, but our feelings and beliefs [managed by the subconscious] may have other ideas. Hypnosis thus brings us a state of rapid eye movement – a natural state of healing and treatment – and it is in this state that your deeper subconscious mind is more open to new ideas and suggestions. In this state, when your subconscious is given such as "You don't have to try not to smoke; this habit will begin to disappear. According to the "New Scientist Magazine", "hypnotherapy is better than any other way to help people quit smoking. There is a greater success rate. ”

According to the university. At Washington Medical School, the success rate of using hypnosis to help quit smoking was 91%. According to a study of 14 international studies, the American Journal of Medicine states that hypnosis has been promoted as a non-toxic way to help smokers quit, and there is evidence that it is effective. Among them, Taylor and Dingle [1994] found that studies on multiple studies have shown that the success rate of single hypnosis cessation is about 25%, while those who take two to three treatments are more than 70%. Hypnosis quits in a few weeks.
