Smoking Cessation
Smoking cessation therapy normally involves only a single session lasting approximately 1½ hours.
This therapy works by using the power of your subconscious mind to change your thinking processes, making it very easy to help you to stop.
People will often try to use their will power to stop smoking, however this can often create irritability, mood-swings, bad temper, cravings and possible weight gain.
How does it work?
Using a combination of positive suggestion and visualisation, I can help make it easy for you to become a non-smoker without the cravings for a cigarette. In fact you will be surprised to find that you may feel confident and relaxed, not only after the session, but continuing throughout the following weeks.
What about putting weight on if I give up?
The possibility of forming any alternative habits is taken care of during the very carefully worded session.
