Hypnosis to Quit Smoking Cigarettes

Hypnosis to Quit Smoking Cigarettes
You know smoking is bad for you. It can give you some problems such as respiratory health and even dental health. You tried everything to quit, but nothing worked. The final warning light flashed when the dentist told you that your smoking has stained your teeth badly and that it has become loose and will fall out soon. Someone tells you that many people used hypnosis to quit smoking cigarettes, and you decide to try it. But first, you will have to understand how the mind works to understand hypnosis.
How does the mind work?

The Conscious Mind

The conscious mind is the part of the human mind that is aware of what is going on around us and help us to see and process things in a rational and logical way. This is where we make objective judgments about all areas of life every day. Even though you might know that smoking is bad for you, your conscious mind would try to validate why you are doing it.

The Unconscious Mind

The autonomic processes in our bodies, like the heart rate, blood pressure, the working of cells, are controlled by the unconscious mind. The unconscious mind is also like the head office for our emotions. Our emotions, in return, are influenced by past experiences, which have an influence on how we behave in certain situations. All these are stored in the unconscious part of the human brain. The unconscious mind is dominant over the conscious. Of course, the conscious and unconscious work closely together.

What is Hypnosis and How Does it Work?

The aim of hypnosis is to use relaxation and other methods, like speaking in a specific way, to reach the unconscious mind – the part with which a hypnotherapist will work.

Bad habits, like smoking, are acquired at the unconscious level. Through hypnosis, the unconscious mind is retrained, like reprogramming a computer. The hypnotherapist creates new associations on an unconscious level, for instance, that smoking is bad for you.

Do yourself a favor and try hypnosis to quit smoking cigarettes.
