Have you come to the decision that you are committed to becoming a non-smoker but feel that you need support to succeed? Hypnotherapy in Brighton to quit smoking is available with Jonathan at The Conway Practice, or during remote sessions by Skype, Zoom or telephone.* Hypnosis can be an effective therapeutic tool to help you to be free of the habit by exploring the underlying reasons for smoking becoming a coping method for unresolved psychological issues and subconscious triggers.*
Although for many smoking has been a long-term habit originating during adolescence, as nicotine is an extremely addictive substance even for those who have smoked for a relatively short period of time, quitting can be challenging. Therapeutic intervention with hypnosis is a relaxing experience, similar to a state of mind while day-dreaming, where you remain calm and in control throughout the session. While the mind is focused and more open to positive suggestion, negative thoughts and beliefs related to your motivation to smoke can be addressed.*
Although you are likely to be consciously aware of the health risks to smokers, you may nevertheless see smoking as a reward for a difficult day at work or a calming method during periods of stress and anxiety. Social smokers often consider smoking to be a bonding ritual to form an affinity within a group following a common habit. You might find yourself lighting a cigarette as a mirroring action when others smoke, even though you have no physical need for nicotine. This hand-to-mouth habit can be even more difficult to break than the comparatively short-term discomfort of nicotine withdrawal. Hypnotherapy examines the subconscious triggers holistically, enabling you to introduce new coping mechanisms and relaxation techniques, replacing negative responses with positive affirmations.*
Jonathan Conway is a qualified Hypnotherapist, NLP Master Practitioner and NLP Coach with over 25 years of experience. All sessions are completely confidential and tailored to individual circumstances and needs.*
