Give up Smoking using Hypnotherapy

Give up Smoking using Hypnotherapy Ash Wednesdsay is the  most popular time for giving up smoking.  Most people who give up cigarettes on that day are not successful.  They go through hell using will-power trying to distract themselves  from the fact that they feel deprived and unable to function without  cigarettes. Eventually after a few days they give in, feeling resigned  to the fact that they are addicted for the time being or at least until  next New Years' Eve. The reason it's so hard is because of the way the human mind works.  The mind works on a conscious level and a subconscious level. At a  conscious level the mind makes a decision to give up smoking, but  the subconscious still continues to do its job and run the habit. The  mind works on many levels but for simplicity sake let's say two levels,  namely the Conscious and the Subconscious. The conscious is the  part of your mind you use mostly during the day. You make conscious  decisions with it, use it to speak to people and do all those other things  you do on a daily basis. It accounts for about 15% of your mental abilities.  The subconscious is a much greater mind. It never sleeps, doesn't have to!  It the part of your mind that creates dreams for you while your body and  your consciousness sleeps. The subconscious contains all of your memories  and experiences; it's an emotional mind, stores all your attitudes to life and  most importantly runs all of your habits! This is because any behaviour - whether it's smoking or even moving an arm  or a leg - must have a thought process behind it. Even something as natural  as walking has a subconscious thought pattern behind it. Smoking is the same. Remember back to your first cigarette? Where was it? Behind the bicycle  shed at school? The back of the disco or dance hall? Wherever it was your  first reaction to that cigarette was probably to cough violently and feel like  throwing up and your head spinning. That was because your immune system  reacted to the toxin you were attempting to put into your body. Now usually  there is a good reason to start smoking at such an early age. You want to fit  in with your friends; you want to be more grown up, feel like an adult. There  is a strong emotional reason attached to wanting to smoke. This is important  because when ever there is a strong emotional reason to do something the  subconscious mind sits up and takes notice. You persist with trying to smoke  and your subconscious mind installs a habit for you to make it easier, like  walking, you don't have to think about it. Quitting smoking using hypnosis takes just 1 session.
