How to Quit Smoking Using Hypnosis and Escape the Smoking Trap for Good (and the New Tobacco Tax Hike!)
Discover Why Hypnosis is the safest,
most natural,
and fastest way
to Quit Smoking...
by Erika Slater, CH
CONSIDER THIS: Each year, according to Psychology Today(2004), about 50% of active smokers make a serious attempt to quit smoking. Of those who attempt to stop without support only 2-5% is successful after 12 months, and it takes them an average of 3-6 attempts to be successful (Sherman, 1994).
When you think about it, that's a lot of stress, frustration, and emotional distress for a pathetic success rate. The fact is, if you're serious about quitting cigarettes you need professional help and support.

If you’ve arrived here after trying everything else to quit smoking and none of it worked, and this is your last ditch effort to get cigarettes out of your life, then I know the frustration and hopelessness you’re feeling.
You see, I tried everything to quit many years ago without success and it wasn’t until I discovered hypnosis that I finally and permanently quit smoking and it’s made all the difference to my life.
Today I dedicate most of the time in my hypnosis practice to helping smokers stop without the use of drugs, strange devices or unnatural procedures. Using hypnosis is a natural and relaxing way to quit smoking.
It’s a shame most smokers only get to hypnosis after trying everything else, when in fact it should be their first stop.
As you can imagine, as a Certified Hypnotist and helping people like you stop smoking, I’ve heard a lot of the same questions and concerns around hypnosis. In this article I’ll answer the questions I hear most often. Maybe you have one of these questions in mind, too.
Let’s get started…
| Q. | I’ve tried everything already and none of it worked, so why would hypnosis be any different? |
|||||||||||||||||||||
| A. | The problem with “everything else” such as patches, gum, and other potions and devices is they attempt to eradicate the habit by suppressing the bodies desire for nicotine. The assumption is this will translate into not wanting to smoke anymore. Nice thought - but it doesn’t work.
Essentially your subconscious mind and your habit as a smoker, are one… bonded with super-glue. Your subconscious mind will do everything it can to protect and prolong that bond because unbeknownst to you, you’ve trained it to do that. You’re caught in the smoking trap – and as you know all too well, this is a deadly trap. The hypnotist will focus on helping you break free of the trap by ungluing the bond your unconscious mind has with your smoking habit. |
|||||||||||||||||||||
| Q. | But will hypnosis work for me? |
|||||||||||||||||||||
| A. | This is really two concerns wrapped up in one question. “I’m not sure I can be hypnotized” and even if you believe it will work for others you’re concerned “will hypnosis stop ME smoking?”
So let’s tackle the issue of can YOU be hypnotized, first. Most people can be hypnotized even though some think they can't. This is because people confuse therapeutic hypnosis with entertainment hypnosis which seems to induce a trance-like condition in audience members – this zombie-like effect has nothing to do with real hypnosis. If you've ever become absorbed in a movie or book and lost track of time, or driven home on a familiar route and can't recall most of the drive... then you've already been in hypnosis... you just didn't know it. The answer to the second question is all about YOU. Your level of desire to stop smoking is the most important aspect you bring to the table. If you're entering a session only because of pressure from friends or family, or a sense that you should stop cigarette use, then hypnosis will not help you quit - in fact nothing will help you to stop if you don't have a strong desire and reason to quit. Lack of a commitment and desire to stop smoking will only translate to a waste of your money and time. However, turning up to the hypnosis session with the right attitude and determination is a prerequisite for success. |
|||||||||||||||||||||
| Q. | What if hypnosis doesn’t work for me – the guarantee question? |
|||||||||||||||||||||
| A. | There are rare instances where hypnosis does not work in helping a person to quit. There are usually specific circumstances going on that cause this to happen. A professional hypnotist will usually discover these issues when they talk with you and recommend alternatives specific for your condition or situation.
A professional and Certified Hypnotist (CH) has no desire to deliver services that don’t get you the outcome you expect, especially if they specialize in smoking cessation and you’re committed to quitting. You’ll find the hypnotist will work with you to reach a satisfactorily conclusion – a Certified Hypnotist has a reputation to protect and a strong incentive to ensure you’re treated fairly and professionally. Recently I’ve seen a spate of guarantees on advertising for stop smoking products or services. Here’s the truth about all that – it’s usually a marketing ploy relying on the statistics that most people don’t bother to go through the aggravation to get a refund even if what they purchased didn’t work. Some will - but most wont. In my hypnosis practice I don't get involved in those tactics with my clients. Instead I offer a written service agreement for them to review before any session is performed or payment accepted.

| Q. | Can I achieve the same outcome by purchasing one of those CD or MP3 hypnosis products? |
|||||||||||||||||||||
| A. | Maybe. I myself offer selected Stop Smoking Hypnosis Download
and Quit Smoking Hypnosis CD programs from partners that serves professional hypnotists and I recommend their products
frequently in my own practice.
Here's what you need to consider with these products compared to a face-to-face hypnosis session:
Now if you still feel an MP3 or CD product solution is something you’d like to try first before booking a session then check out my recommended Quit Smoking Hypnosis downloadable program here or Stop Smoking Hypnosis CD program here to see if they can help you first. As I said before I recommend these hypnosis products frequently in my own practice. |
|||||||||||||||||||||
| Q. | How much does it cost to quit smoking using hypnosis? |
|||||||||||||||||||||
| A. | Hypnotists usually charge per session and the price per session is all over the map, and frankly most won’t tell you what they charge until they get you on the phone or to the first session.
I refuse to play that game and will freely tell you that my session price is normally $224. At the moment people finding this special offer through my web site get a discount making my session price $199. Now sometimes when I mention the price I know it has invoked the reaction of “I don’t have the money – the session sounds too expensive.” Even if people don’t say it, I can tell they’re thinking it. Here’s my best answer to that emotion… First, to stop smoking doesn’t cost you money… it saves you money. And with the economy the way it is at the moment, you've just got to stop burning through anymore of your hard-earned cash by making a commitment to take the first step to quit smoking today. Here's how much your habit is costing you... The average cost of a pack of cigarettes today is And as you know only too well cigarette smokers continue to be prime targets to raise extra taxes for the federal and state’s treasury coffers. So we both know the cost of smoking is only going to increase like it did recently. As brutal as this may sound... If not having the money to pay for a hypnosis session is holding you back – and remember you’ll recover the cost of a session in your first month free of smoking – then I find that’s usually an excuse people use for not being serious about stop smoking. Somehow saying “I don’t have the money” makes not quitting acceptable. I doubt I'm describing you as you've got this far in the information and this proves to me you're serious about quitting.

|||||||||||||||||||||
| Q. | I'd like to discover if you can help me stop smoking but what are your qualifications? |
|||||||||||||||||||||
| A. | I received my training and certification in hypnosis from the National Guild of Hypnotists, which is the largest hypnosis organization in the world, and then went on to receive specialized training in smoking cessation.
But perhaps my most important qualification to help you, is that I was once a smoker and quit cigarettes by using hypnosis - so I understand all the emotions of doubt and guilt you're feeling but can help you overcome them.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||
| Q. | How many sessions will it take? |
|||||||||||||||||||||
| A. | My Stop Smoking program is usually one session - regardless you pay one fee only.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||
| Q. | Where are you located? |
|||||||||||||||||||||
| A. | I'm located in Upton, Massachusetts. Most of the towns in Central and Eastern Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Southern New Hampshire are within a reasonable driving distance of my office. I'm 30 minutes or less from the following towns: |

SAMPLE CLIENT TESTIMONIALS:
"Not tempted at all and finally felt fully in control and finally free..."
"I've tried to quit smoking several times before. I've tried Wellbutrin, nicotine gum, cold turkey, but nothing worked. I worried that I would never be able to rid of the habit.
After meeting with Erika for the first time, I had hoped that I could finally do it. After my second session I was able to feel calm and relaxed in the face of situations where I would typically feel the urge to smoke. I was not tempted at all and felt finally in control and finally feel free.
I never thought I would be, but I am now a non-smoker. Thank you Erika!"

"I walked in the Door a smoker and out of the door a non-smoker - truly amazing! "
"I've been a smoker for 15 years. I came to Erika somewhat skeptical about the process. Initially I came just for a consult and ended up getting hypnotized that same day. I walked in the door a smoker and out the door a non-smoker! Truly amazing! No cravings. No anxiety attacks. I feel great!"
- Valeska Ross
Templeton, MA
"In one-hour I was a non-smoker!"
"I came to see Erika with a little hesitation. I was not sure how it would work.
I had tried everything, "cold turkey," patch, gum, Wellbutrin, and nothing seemed to get it out for good - always thinking about smoking.
After my first session I felt great!
I was relaxed (more than I ever thought possible) - I was different!
That smoking thought was gone!
In one hour I was a non-smoker. In my mind I was free and clear of smoking. I'm a new changed person.
A non-smoker. Thank you!"

God bless you for what you've done for my life. I will never forget you.
