The Facts About Smoking

Will Power

Side effects to stopping smoking by willpower alone - Concentration

What to expect if you stop smoking by willpower alone

Those who stop smoking by willpower alone, may find that their ability to concentrate on something for a long time may be affected.

When to expect it

If you stop smoking by willpower alone, this can happen anytime during the first week or two after giving up smoking, although up to a month wouldn’t be too unusual.

Why does it happen?

It is likely to be caused because the person not taking enough breaks.  In the past, smoking gave them an excuse to take a break every so often… now that they are not smoking, they might not be taking as many breaks as they did before. 

What you can do to help yourself

There are two main things that you could do to help yourself.

• Take breaks, but try to avoid going to where everyone else will be smoking.  Go for a walk, read a magazine, make a cup of tea… whatever will give you a break without being exposed to passive smoking.
  
• Secondly, you could consider a session of stop smoking hypnotherapy with me! - See below for an explanation of why this will help.

Why my clients find it easier

The 'need' to smoke comes from the individual's subconscious mind, weighing up the benefits of smoking, against the benefits of not smoking. 

The stop smoking hypnotherapy session sets about to change the subconscious balance, so that the person has no desire to smoke, because their subconscious mind finds that the benefits of not smoking, greatly outweigh the 'benefits' of smoking.

When this process happens, the mechanisms supporting these 'withdrawal symptoms' are no longer there.

Stop Smoking Testimonials

"You’ve completely cured my lack of willpower and confidence"

... a stop smoking client from Essex

"Hi Paul, hope you are well,

Just wanted to let you know it's been a week now since my therapy and I haven't smoked. In fact in a way it feels like I've never smoked.

I haven't had any cravings and I have no problem being around other smokers. The therapy has worked so well for me, I feel great and things in my life seem to be coming together nicely.

I have recommended you to 3 of my close friends.

I will continue to recommend you to people who could benefit from your treatment as I am over the moon with results I have seen in myself."

...a stop smoking client from Hitchin

"I was going to get back to you earlier but decided to wait until i had been through everything and still not smoked.

It's been 5 weeks and i still have not smoked, i haven't even had a craving!!

I dont know how you've done it and im sure a lot of it is to do with wanting to give up, i have been on holiday, been to family gatherings and all my family smoke, and even had emotional upset and i cannot believe that through all that i have not had the urge to have a cigarette.

I wanted to say thanks "

A stop smoking client from Bedfordshire

"She stopped smoking so easily after coming to see you, that I've come as well, because I want the same for me."

...a stop smoking client from Warwick
