The Harbor Hypnosis Smoking Cessation Program works by eliminating your desire to smoke. It is easier to stop smoking if you find it undesirable rather than perceiving smoking as desirable or pleasurable.
How Hypnosis Helps You Quit
Hypnosis teaches your subconscious mind what your conscious mind already understands — smoking negatively affects your life. Your motivation and commitment to stop smoking are essential to kicking the habit.
How You Help Yourself Quit
We will determine what personal needs of yours are being satisfied by smoking. Do you....
Smoke to nurture yourself, to combat loneliness, or for a "pick-me-up"?
Believe smoking relieves stress or provides moments of relaxation?
Smoke to make socializing more comfortable?
The more candid you are about when, where and why you smoke, the more effortlessly you will succeed at becoming a non-smoker through hypnosis.
