Quit Smoking – Hypnosis Can Save You More Than Just Money

By admin | December 25, 2009

You’ve already decided to quit smoking. Hypnosis is just one of the methods you’ve heard about. You know someone who’s using nicotine gum to quit, and he says it tastes like dirty socks. And you’ve already tried cold turkey a couple of times and remember every agonizing minute of it. So the quit smoking hypnosis program sounds pretty good. But aren’t those programs really expensive? Won’t they cost more than nicotine patches or pills?
Of course, if you’re really concerned about the expense of quitting smoking, there’s no need to tell you that your smoking habit is already costing you a small fortune. You already know that your money is literally going up in smoke. And if you didn’t already know it yourself, your friends and family are more than happy to tell you how much money you’re wasting…over and over again. It’s one of the many reasons you want to quit.
So, as long as the quit smoking method you finally choose costs less than what you’re spending on cigarettes or cigars, you’ll be coming out ahead, right? Maybe not.
Do you know how much those other quit smoking methods really cost? Nicorette gum can cost you more than $100 a month. Using a nicotine patch can also cost you more than $100 a month. And how about those nasal sprays and inhalers? Well, they’ll cost you anywhere from $100 to $400 per month or more. And prescription pills? There’s another hundred dollars per month, at least.
And that’s just the beginning. Smoking cessation programs that use these methods usually plan for you to be on them for two to six months. So you could be looking at a cost of anywhere from $200 to more than $2400 to quit smoking
Of course, double or triple that amount would still be worth it if you really quit smoking for good using those programs. But 8 out of 10 people who use quit smoking drugs end up smoking again after spending all that money. And if they want to try quitting again, using those same methods, they’ll need to spend that same amount of money or more the next time around.
Now compare those costs with the cost of learning how to use hypnosis to quit smoking. Depending on the program you use, hypnosis for quitting smoking can cost anywhere from $40 to $500. Of course, it’s more expensive if you choose to find a hypnotherapist and go to one-on-one, in-person counseling sessions . And it’s less expensive when you buy a book or CDs, and learn to use self-hypnosis.
But whether you learn the techniques in person from a therapist, or from a book or from an internet download, the hypnosis tools you use to quit smoking are just as effective . That’s because what you’re really learning is how to use self-hypnosis to cure yourself from both your physical addiction to nicotine, and from your mental and emotional smoking habits.
When you use gum, patches, sprays, inhalers or pills you’re spending money to address your physical addiction to nicotine. Yes, the nicotine replacement drugs address the physical cravings. But they don’t help one bit with changing all of your day to day smoking behaviors, habits and rituals.
