Willpower alone Doesn't Work When Trying to Quit Smoking Think of quitting any strong habit, it is natural to believe that it requires huge amounts of steadfast willpower - perhaps you have said to yourself in the past "I just haven't got enough willpower, if only I had more willpower I would be able to quit smoking." The reason this won't work is because willpower is a function of the conscious mind, but a habit like smoking is controlled by your subconscious. Using the conscious mind and willpower does not usually enable a person to quit smoking, and even if they are able to do so temporarily, they eventually relapse and are forced to try all over again. repeated failures weaken the attempts that follow and they tend to feel doomed to failure. The key to success is changing the programming in the subconscious mind to not want to smoke anymore, your subconscious is like a computer needing an updated program to replace an old outdated one.
Are you really ready to Quit Smoking Now?
You need to be at the point you are certain you want to quit smoking. You are tired of coughing, worrying about your health, feeling so unhealthy perhaps breathless, your clothes and house smell, you spend so much money of cigarettes or tobacco, your partner or children beg you to stop, you feel bad about yourself for smoking. Perhaps someone dear to you has had or is suffering from an illness caused by smoking that has really made you think about your own health and mortality. Whatever enjoyment you used to get from smoking is fading fast. Instead you feel negative about smoking you worry about it and it now makes more sense to quit rather than continue smoking.
How Hypnosis Works
Hypnosis reinforces to your subconscious mind that you simply no longer want to be a smoker. The power of smoking is weakened, it becomes less important to you, less attractive to you, it becomes much more important that you remain a permanent non-smoker. Your subconscious mind will find new sources for good feelings. Your subconscious mind accepts suggestion with ease when under hypnosis and you come out of hypnosis with little or no desire for nicotine or smoking. You simply become a non-smoker you don't even think about cigarettes because you are a non-smoker.
