I have just had one of the most incredible emails ever from one of my first every Hypnotherapy clients.
In the email, he reminded me that he came to see me nearly 10 years go to help him stop smoking. After a 90-minute hypnotherapy session with me, he stopped and never started again.
But what is even more incredible is that he calculated that in the last 10 years he saved over £27,000!!!!!!!!!
Even I was blown away by this £27,000, that is an absolutely staggering figure. I often talk to people about the cost of cigarettes to their health and wallet and I do a rough calculation, but this guy had really done the maths. He told me that the figures were correct as he put the money away and saved it in a separate account. He actually just set up another account and had the money filter in each month. He was smoking between 25-30 cigarettes a day and when he came to see me, it was starting to affect his health. He recalled that when he met me that he was not that bothered at the time about the financial saving. His focus was on still being around for his wife and children in 10 years and after giving up he is still here and much the richer as well.
So how do I help people to stop? Most of the time we will never give up something negative as we do not fear the consequences of it. We feel that it is too far away, so we do not bother about what will happen if we carry on smoking or not taking care of our health. This will then cause a huge lack of motivation on our behalf, as we may hold the thought “Yes I might get cancer, but that will be when I am old”. As you can see, here lays one of the main reasons for not stopping smoking. The negative consequences are just not a reality for you.
Now in life we are controlled by two emotions (Please and pain) we move towards those things that we perceive are pleasurable and away from those things that we perceive as painful. So when a negative thought about smoking rears its head, we either ignore it or shout it down. We also cannot even entertain a positive thought about stopping smoking either so people become stuck, not able to move forwards or backwards and then see continuing to smoke as the only answer. Some people may attempt a substitute (Vaping anyone) but this always just leads back to smoking.
The reason I have such a high and long-lasting success rate is that I use a powerful therapy technique where I take your conscious and subconscious brain to those places you do not always want to venture. Now that may sound a little daunting, but with smoking, you have very few alternatives. As another successful client once said to me, it should say on your webpage “If you come and see me, you are going to change”
Within my non-smoking package, I offer people a chance to see and live the alternatives and this has a huge effect on the mind and the decision-making process. If you actually knew and felt how good it was to give up smoking or lose weight, you would start to do everything you could to move towards that new you. Have you ever worked hard on something and started to see and feel the difference and it really spurred you on to keep going? That is the effect that I gave you within my one hypnotherapy sessions. I help to create those positive emotions and bring the reality of being a non-smoker into your conscious brain. So Instead of being controlled by pleasure and pain, I help people to make them work for them so they can take back control of their minds and their lives.
Just to end this blog, as a point of interest I have just been on a calculation site that shows how much you can save if you stopped smoking today.
If you smoke between 20 and 25 cigarettes a day and you gave up today in 10 years you would save around £54,750!!!!!! (UK GOV Source) You may have your reasons to carry on, but I can think of 54,750 reasons to stop.
Always remember 10 years may seem a long way off, but in 1999 so did 2019. You will get to 2029, and wouldn’t it be better to get there with a healthy body and an extra £54,000
