(A NOTE FROM MY HYPNOTISTS WEB PAGE)
OK, I have always used humor in my approach to hypnotherapy. Some tips to quit smoking below are humorous, some are just true. All of them have been used by our clients as their personal reasons, their benefits to quitting smoking. So think of it as your own boutique of reasons why to quit smoking or go ahead & make-up some of your own.
Here's a surprising fact, it can be a satisfying experience to stop smoking. We see it happen all the time. In deciding how important this is for you, consider the possibility that easy is achievable. Everybody is different, but you'll be able to create all the courage necessary to begin a healthier life. It can be really simple when you realize that you and you alone are in-charge, and that you're going to make-up your own mind on important matters like this in your life.
* "I want an upgrade in my life simply by becoming a non-smoker. After all, smoking raises my risk of heart disease 300%, and makes me three to five times more likely to have lung cancer.
* Smokers are optimists. Almost as if somebody has jumped off an 80 story building and as he passes the 32nd floor says, "Not bad so far, right?" Can someone assist me into one of those nice looking windows on the 30th floor please?
* "I want to be the one to "sound the bell" in my family. I owe them that, simply because it's possible for me. In fact, to quit smoking alone is a much more valuable thing than any amount of inheritance.
* "Want to see a docu-drama? Here's a compelling twisted plot: Focus on that child you know, somewhere under age 10. Picture it. He doesn't even know or realize, as he's moving toward you, his chances of getting lung cancer are sealed- twice as high- because of living around smoke.
* "What's the fuss? My doc gave me a choice, he said it was the cigarettes or the early painful death. one or the other? I didn't hesitate, didn't whine, I didn't moan. I gave up the early painful death, what's the big deal?
* The “do-as-I-say-not-as-I-do” message never works, but the “do as I do” approach to influencing loved ones already is.
* "In my family, there are groups of things that can come at you all at once, causing early death. By me choosing to stop smoking right now, I instantly reduce my risk of dying from stroke, influenza, pneumonia, peripheral artery occlusion, chronic obstructive pulmonary decease, and aortic aneurysm. That's a powerful kind of insurance.
* A friend from work said "I didn't know you smoked?" Yes, I said, I use it to handle my stress. "Oh. How long have you been stressed?" Since about the time I began smoking, why?
* "I visited my brother at the hospital, having the thoughts, "fair enough, heart disease and other ailments associated with passive smoking actually cause 50,000 to 60,000 deaths every year. It's time to end this thing. Giddy-up.
* "Because smoking causes wrinkles & rough skin [by depleting the natural collagen in the skin] I want to stop now. I figure, at 45, stopping now will keep me looking younger longer. That's a good thing.
* "It just doesn't make any sense, I was looking for a place to smoke when a beautiful young business-type slipped me her card with a note saying, "I'm hot for your body"...mixed up, happy... when I finally got to sit down next to her, I learned everything about her cremation service."
* "Feelings of being controlled by a thing are depressing. It's situational depression. It's something I can solve. I'll only take it as a bonus that quitting now, for me, improves my odds of living longer. I want control back.
* "If I use "quit smoking hypnosis" to stop now before I turn 50, then I cut my risk of dying in half compared with any smoker. And I really do have a few important things I want to accomplish. You know, maybe seeing some people grow up or being there for them when I know they'll need me.
* "400,000 die every 12 months from conditions caused directly by smoking. I guess death is smoking's little way of telling us to quit? Can you imagine all the indirect causes? And just how much money do you think Big Tobacco spends to make sure those numbers get reported as they are?
* "Quitting smoking reduces the risk of heart decease, the leading cause of death in the United States. With heart disease in my family, I want to do what I can to avoid it.
* "Doctor, Doctor!... Every morning I wake-up, smoke, look in the mirror, I want to throw-up!? What's wrong with me?... I don't know, but your senses of smell & sight are perfect.
* "Men who smoke are 22 times more likely, and women who smoke are 12 times more likely to die from lung cancer. Yuk, have you ever known someone with this gruesome disease? As a nurse, I am taking steps to avoid it.
* "Stopping smoking reduces the risk of cancer of the larynx, mouth, esophagus, pancreas, and bladder. My grandfather had 2 of those at once. I simply prefer not to have either, if I can help my chances by quitting smoking Stop hypnosis hypnotherapy programs really work.
* "Smoking during pregnancy doubles the risk of having a low birth weight baby.
* "I've been a casual smoker. At a party we've attended for years, some otherwise wonderful & brilliant people were very likely to always be outside smoking, even in the rain. Some of them don't show up anymore. Because they're dead.
* "Quitting smoking with hypnotherapy now lowers a persons risk of developing gastric or duodenal ulcers. And I "likes" my spice.
* "Mom always told us 'The best part of life is the 40's 50s 60s and 70s.' Why? Because you've done so much and you've gotten to know yourself so well by now. It can truly be the best of your
times here on earth. But only if you've got your health. * "Quitting cigarettes or stopping chewing tobacco after I've already developed cancer lowers my risk of a second cancer developing. I have faith I will overcome this diagnosis, but thoughts about my loved ones have me doing some planning for a healthier future, no matter what."
