Activate Hypnotherapy

This is a question I have always dreaded, even more than the naïve:

Why don’t you just quit?

I don’t really know why I smoked. It wasn’t peer pressure. It wasn’t to look cool. It wasn’t rebellion… but obviously it wasn’t a rational decision to start smoking.

Do some thinking about the “why” for you, because that is an important key to all this.

I had given up smoking in the past – lots of times – and I actually never found it that hard. Maybe that was the problem. I knew I COULD give up, so I smoked because “I like it and I can give up when I need to”.

So… I would give up when I get married, and when I was 30, 35, after I read “The Only Way to Stop Smoking Permanently”, when I get married again (LOL), when I turn 40, when my child was born, when my child was old enough to realise I was smoking, when I was 45… see the pattern here?

Every time I stopped smoking, I told myself that I would always be a smoker – I just had to decide to never smoke again. But this is different… I came out of this one session with Juanita knowing that I definitely DIDN’T WANT to smoke.

That was a big change.

I actually feel a bit guilty when people congratulate me for not smoking, because it was so easy. I mean, I haven’t even felt tempted to light a cigarette since I saw her.

Of course, I have thought about smoking – and all those times where I would usually get away from the people I loved and sneak one in – but I’ve never missed it. I didn’t have to stop drinking, socialising, going for a break…

I don’t have to do anything.

I’m free.
