Hypnotherapy for smoking cessation is one of the most commonly practiced forms of hypnosis. It is often cited as a tool to quit smoking along with strategies such as the use of nicotine gums or patches and other popular means.

The smoking addiction has both physiological and psychological components. The physiological addiction is a physical addiction the body acquires for nicotine. This aspect of the addiction causes the physical withdrawal symptoms that make it seem near impossible to stop smoking. However, this is a short, temporary stage in the overall process of quitting the habit, which lasts only between three days and one week. By the end of this period, your body adjusts to regular, nicotine-free functioning. Based on thirty years of experience, I believe that the physical need for nicotine makes up only ten percent of the smoking addiction.

By far, the most challenging part of breaking the smoking addiction is overcoming the psychological addiction, which are the mental and emotional aspects of smoking. I believe this makes up ninety percent of the smoking addiction. When you develop a smoking habit, you develop an unconscious desire to smoke in certain environments, such as before going to bed at night. This is called a conditioned response. Stop smoking self-hypnosis works to eliminate the unconscious associations that cause one to crave cigarettes, thereby eliminating the conditioned response to smoke. Hypnotherapy also helps you stay motivated to give up smoking by reinforcing your beliefs that gave you the desire to break the smoking addiction in the first place.

Smokers get stuck impulsively lighting up and smoking. This is why many people who attempt to stop smoking using nicotine patches or gums alone have such a difficult experience. They soon overcome the physical addiction, but they have no relief or replacement for the ritual of smoking, which has become a mental habit and comforting source of stress relief. Hypnosis techniques eliminate this mental addiction and serve as stress reducers as well. As a relaxation tool, hypnosis helps effectively relieve anxiety and stress so you will lose the desire to smoke cigarettes.

Combined with some powerful NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) techniques, stop smoking self-hypnosis can keep you committed to breaking the habit by training your unconscious mind to focus on the benefits of quitting. Eliminating tobacco benefits you in a great number of ways. Within days of quitting, body parts damaged by smoking begin to heal, damaged nerves re-grow, and your sense of taste and smell improves. Within weeks, blood circulation and lung function improve. Within a year, your risk of heart disease is less than half that of a smoker.

Your risk of dying from lung cancer and numerous other cancer risks have decreased, and your risk of heart disease is the same as someone who has never smoked.
