Using hypnosis to quit smoking is the easy way for a lot of people to
quit smoking, as smoking seems to be a good portion of mental as in
getting rid of the idea in your head that you need to smoke. First though you need motivation to want to quit smoking so below are some effects that smoking causes to help you want to take that first step and be smoke free.

Effects of Smoking

The effects of smoking are made apparent on the TV and internet advertisements today, but some people want to know more about the negative and possibly positive effects of smoking. What does it do what does it cause? Most people see these advertisements but cannot name more than cancer from lung cancer to bronchial cancer.

Death Rate

The dead rate of smoking is astronomical the deaths are over 400,000 a year which equals out to being more than 1200 lives per day due to smoking. This is more deaths a year than auto accidents, heroic, alcohol, fire, suicide, aids, homicide and cocaine COMBINED


Effects on Lungs

Commonly known that smoking has dire effects on your lungs, but it isn't the solitary smoking effect that hits the respiratory system. The effects hit effect the bronchial area, this decreases the lung capacity and efficiency with an increase in abnormalities in the lungs and your other airways.  Lung diseases are also known to be associated with the habit among them are bronchitis, emphysema, and pneumonia. Lung cancer is a cancerous tissue that grows in or on the lungs, this greatly impairs a person's ability to breathe. Cancer itself can spread as it is known to do so this is why what may start as lung cancer can spread to MANY areas of the body and spread creating a MUCH bigger problem than just lung cancer.

Effects On Women

The effects on women are increased compared to men in most study's, their chance to develop lung cancer by about 12% compared to non-smokers. Woman also begin to loose estrogen, which Is a very important chemical in a woman body I doubt I have to say but this will effect your bones in a huge way. Having a low estrogen level will prevent bones from growing and will also reduce bone density, a growing issue for women in the US today.

Injury

Smoking also has some other effects on your body that is less known, such as your body takes a lot longer to repair itself. Numerous toxins in cigarette smoke can make a fracture or ligament damage take a great deal longer to recover. This loss of your body healing itself can cause major complications if you were to get into a major accident, you would take a great deal longer to recover than a non-smoker would.

What gets you addicted?

One chemical is the primary ingredient in all forms of cigarettes, nicotine. This is the chemical that builds dependence on the substance. Nicotine effects on a person inhaling it include causes a relaxing effect that is a nice bonus and the reason most people try it in the first place. Though cigarettes don't taste very good the nicotine remains in your brain which is the beginning of dependence on the substance.

Benefits Of Using Hypnosis

Using hypnosis to quit smoking is mainly effective as it is completely painless. Price ranges from about $40 to $500 and more of course if you find a hypnotherapist and do one on one sessions. Price is a lot less than you would be spending on smoking and you will feel a ton better.

Habitual Smoking

Most people are habitual smokers meaning that smoking is part of their routine. They just do it it just happens. They don't even think about doing it anymore they have been doing it for years and they think its impossible to stop or control anymore. Stopping with hypnosis is on of the best ways for someone that is this kind of smoker to stop.

Many Doctors Suggest Hypnosis

Many doctors now are suggesting to their patients to attempt to use some clinical hypnosis to quit smoking. There are alternatives however such as online hypnosis that many people have claimed to have the same results, so I suggest trying them first. You can also get A free hypnosis session to try it out and see if you see any results.

Can I Be Hypnotized?

Yes pretty much anyone can be hypnotized. Hypnotism is just entering your subconscious state of mind where you aren't really thinking. Like when you are really focused on something and lose track of time, that is when you are in your subconscious state of mind. When you are very relaxed and in this state someone that known how to hypnotize has to put you in this state and then know how to adjust your subconscious behavioural pattern so that you are not as addicted to cigarettes or really anything!

What Method of Hypnosis Should I Use?

Today there are plenty of options that you don't have to visit a hypnotherapist for, but which one is best for you? Between DVDs, Computer Programs, and MP3 Audio which you should use is really up to you. Most of these services have free trials that try to get you to see results as a reason to purchase their program. I highly recommend you try them before you buy them if you are trying to save money and get more bang for your buck. Below we have a few options that you can try.

Patches

Nicotine patches will raise your chances at quitting smoking also, on average someone with the patch has a 10% chance of success after a year. This increases to 20% when combined with a therapist. With the use of hypnosis it greatly increases your chances or quitting by beating the habitual side of smoking and the nicotine side with the patch.

Types of Hypnosis to Quit Smoking

There are a few ways that you could use to quit smoking with hypnosis such as purchasing an audio CD, downloading MP3's, and going to a hypnotherapist. Of course downloading MP3's and buying an audio CD will be very cheap compared to getting a hypnotherapist though.

Costs

The cost of getting hypnotism sessions depend, if you are using a CD or online source you can expect it to be anywhere from $40 to $500 for the full course and this is a one time fee. While hypnotherapy from a therapist is going to cost anywhere from $200+ a month but there is a higher chance of success due to constant support from an individual though with enough self motivation you can do it at home and save some money.
