Stop Smoking
Programs
The first and most
important element needed to achieve positive results with any
stop smoking program is the sincere desire on the part of the
client to stop. No one can make anyone do something they don't
want to do, so it is imperative that they really want to quit
for themselves. If they are doing it for a spouse or loved one
or anyone other than themselves, the success rate lowers
considerably.
Once a person
decides they want to stop smoking, using hypnosis to do it is
easy and effective. In fact, other methods just don't compare
with hypnosis. About 10% can stop using gum, 16% using patches
and only about 7% stop using the Cold Turkey method. When you
think about it, that means that 84-93% fail with these methods.
Stop Smoking in
One Hour™
I use a method that utilizes advanced hypnosis and Neuro-linguistic
Programming (NLP) techniques. It takes about an hour and is so
effective that I offer a backup guarantee. That means that if
you smoke again at any time after this program, you can come
back in for another session free of charge as often as necessary
for up to one year.
Three Session
Program
Some people find it difficult to embrace the idea that they will
be able to successfully quit smoking in one, one-hour session.
For those who know they should quit, but are conflicted about
quitting, then this program is the better choice. It is very
effective, in fact, it is the method that was used to help me
quit smoking more than 20 years ago. This consists of three,
one-hour sessions over a two-week period. The first two sessions
are spaced one day apart and the final session is one week
later. One advantage to the three-session program is that the
extra sessions allow more time to explore the part of the mind
that is unsteady about giving up smoking and to teach more
"take home" tools. Instructions for self-hypnosis and
a technique for eliminating cravings are included as well as a
CD for home use and reinforcement. Most people experience no
weight gain with either stop smoking method.
Weight
Management
Hypnosis is a very
effective method to help motivate and support the decision to
stop destructive patterns and help create and reinforce new,
healthier ones. Because weight loss is much more involved than
simply "dieting" this program addresses all the issues
that arise when a client commits to a lifestyle change.
In each of my
weight loss programs, we address the emotional aspects of eating
as well as portion control, eating the right foods (fewer
carbohydrates, sugar etc.) exercise, confidence/self-esteem,
stress reduction and self-sabotage. Clients are encouraged to
create an atmosphere and home environment that supports a
successful outcome by getting their families involved and
"shopping thin" by adjusting the grocery list to
reflect their new thinking patterns.

need to curb their behavior and/or lose 5-10 lbs.

Self Esteem/Confidence
The way you feel about yourself
is vital to so many aspects of life. Your
ability to create success in relationships, career, and all
aspects of your personal life, depends to a great extent on your
opinion of and belief in yourself. Hypnosis
is a wonderful tool for eliminating doubts, negative patterns,
and ideas which can stand in the way of your conscious desire to
make more money, be a better athlete, create healthier
relationships, or become the creative force you know is within
your power.
Relationships
"She just doesn’t
understand me."
"He cares more about his
career than he does me."
"I always seem to attract
the ones that I’m not attracted to."
Do any of these statements
sound familiar to you? It is possible to
attract the kind of man/woman you want to attract by
understanding your own behaviors (choice of clothing, leisure
time activities, the way you communicate, etc.) and what they
say about you? It is also possible to improve
the quality of your existing relationships by developing an
understanding of the way you and your partner take in
information and respond to it? A few simple
techniques can change the way you relate, not only to your
partner, but also to colleagues, bosses, employees, co-workers,
and friends.
Fears/Phobias
The number one fear in the
United States today is getting up in front of people and
talking. The very thought of this activity
creates a state of severe anxiety and/or panic in a large
portion of the population. There are a number
of techniques, such as imagery, desensitization, and relaxation,
which can help reduce the stress, anxiety, and physiological
symptoms that accompany fears of all kinds. Find more
information in the Articles section of this website.
Pain Management
Hypnosis is a very effective way
to reduce pain. If a runner developed shin
splints, I can teach him/her to develop feelings of numbness in
one part of the body, a hand for example, creating a sort of
anesthetic glove which can then be transferred to the shin by
placing the numbed hand on the shin. Headaches
can be transferred to a different part of the body, perhaps a
little finger, where the pain will be less disruptive.
These and other techniques work well for acute as well as
chronic pain sufferers. Of course, pain is a
warning to you that something is functioning improperly; so
pain is never completely removed.
Stress Management
Stress has
been blamed for high blood pressure, heart attacks, and numerous
immune system disorders. If left untreated,
it can erode our health, emotional balance, and mental acuity.
Our nervous system uses two types of communication
systems. One uses words and verbal thoughts.
This happens in the left hemisphere of the brain where
our conscious mind lives. It controls muscles
and involuntary movement. The other part of
the nervous system, which regulates blood pressure, as well as,
heartbeat, digestion, tissue regeneration, and immune responses,
responds to a different language, the language of symbols and
imagery. This is produced in the right
hemisphere of the brain, which is the seat of the subconscious
mind. In hypnosis, we can create a deep state
of relaxation by activating the language of symbols and imagery,
thereby, eliminating stress.
Children and Hypnosis
Many children can be helped
through hypnosis to control or eliminate bedwetting, nose
picking, nail biting, and other undesirable mannerisms.
As they grow older, hypnosis can affect concentration and
focus, anxiety, self-esteem, motivation, creativity, and
athletic performance, to name only a few. Young
people have fewer defenses than adults, and in general, they are
much more easily hypnotized and open to positive suggestions.
This receptiveness can lead to quick and dramatic change.
For example, a mother of a deeply shy and introverted
17-year-old girl came to me to help her daughter in becoming
more confident and self-assured. Seven weeks
later, the daughter walked into my office and announced that she
had been elected president of her senior class. Children
have fertile minds, and when positive suggestions are planted,
the seeds grow quickly.
Insomnia
Some people lie awake for
hours, unable to turn their minds off. Some
fall asleep promptly and then awaken later and thrash around for
the rest of the night. Some drift in and out
of sleep all night and wake in the morning feeling exhausted.
Regardless of the type of sleeper or non-sleeper you are,
relaxation techniques, direct suggestions, post hypnotic
suggestions, self-hypnosis, and customized CD's are all
effective ways to combat insomnia. Read more about this in the
Articles section of this website.
Learning and Memory
Enhancement
The human mind is of such size
that it could not be filled in a total lifetime. It
is capable of remembering everything that has ever been seen,
heard, read, or experienced. Hypnotherapy,
NLP and Imagery are highly effective tools for stimulating the learning
process. Used together, they can increase motivation, reduce
study and test anxieties, access memory, and improve study
habits. Light and Sound Technology can also greatly
increase the minds' ability to learn and remember. Light
and sound, delivered in specific patterns, stimulate left and
right hemispheres simultaneously and enhances absorption,
understanding and retention. Cluttered minds can emerge from this
process with purpose, direction, and organization.
