When will you Stop Smoking?

When will you stop smoking?

What will it take for you to finally take that step and quit smoking for good?

All smokers know that cigarettes are bad for them. You know that sucking in nicotine and other chemicals just can’t be good for you. And you know that you are gambling with your health with every drag.

And you may have told yourself many times that one of these days you will stop smoking for good.

So when will the time be right for you to stop smoking?

The final straw that leads you to stop smoking

Even though you know that smoking is damaging your health and that the cigarettes are in control, it often needs

some sort of shock to your system before you take the action to quit.

Maybe someone you know has been diagnosed with cancer, you notice how out of breath you now seem to get, your friends are all stopping smoking or the doctor has told you that there are no other options – you have to stop smoking.

Sometimes just one of these sorts of things happens in your life and you decide you will stop smoking. But then the moment passes, time moves on and you’ve still done nothing to quit.

And then something finally clicks.

Recently I was working with an Ely hypnotherapy client who had been told by her doctor that she had to quit smoking for her health. Effectively he told her you have about six months left unless you stop smoking right now.

Another client came to see me for stop smoking hypnotherapy in Ely after noticing how out of breath he was getting just walking up the stairs.

And many others come to see me to stop smoking after a close friend or family member gets cancer or another smoking related illness.

So what will it take before you stop smoking for good?

Choosing your future

Many smokers I’ve met don’t like to think about the future if they carry on smoking. They don’t want to think about the impact on their skin, teeth and nails; how their breathing will be affected, the things they will have to stop doing, the years with family and friends they are likely to miss out on; and the impact on their health.

Take a few minutes and vividly imagine what the future holds if you carry on smoking as you do now? As the years progress, what is the likely impact on your health, energy and wellbeing? What will you have to stop doing? What will you miss out on? And how much will it have cost you to live this way?

Then vividly imagine life being free from the grasp of cigarettes – your energy, the things you can enjoy doing? The people you have in your life and what you can do together? Just get a sense of what life free of smoking will be like.

When you are ready to stop smoking now

If after having done this, a future free of smoking is attractive enough for you to want to actually do something about it then contact me on 01353 669941 and ask to book your free stop smoking initial consultation.
