Best Hypnotist in New York Alexander Ivlev: Why Do You Want To Quit Smoking?

Oct. 26, 2012 - PRLog -- One man wanted to quit smoking and he said to me that he wants to stop smoking because the cigarettes are too expensive now. So his goal is money saving. Does it mean, if he will find a better job, he will start to smoke again? Very possible, if his real goal is saving the money. But if his goal is different, then he won't stop smoking at all! The setting an intention is #1 step for such cases.

  Why do you want to quit smoking? This is a question for any smoker who decided to quit. There must be a reason, a motive for Smoking Cessation other than the health issues. The smokers don't have a fear of emphysema, they simply don't believe in any illness they can get.

  If a smoker knows for sure why he/she wants to stop smoking, only then it's so easy to achieve it through hypnosis with a suggestion to quit. How to find out what you want or why you want to do something?

  Well, this can be done with hypnosis. We, the consulting hypnotists, talk to the subconscious mind and ideomotor communication is very effective for a client's goals clearing. The ideomotor method of communication is simply a client's fingers movements, let's say a left finger is "yes" sign , and a right finger is "No" sign. That's it. A hypnotist asks a client the simple questions, while he/she is in trance, and a client answers with his/her fingers, yes or no. That's why it's so easy to find out if a smoker wants to quit or doesn't wants to quit smoking, and why he/she wants to do that.

  But of course if a smoker doesn't want to stop smoking in the first place, hypnosis won't make him/her become a non-smoker. Nobody can be hypnotized against his or her will!

  Sometime consciously you want to do something, but subconsciously you don't want to do that, and you even don't realize it. That's why it's not easy to quit smoking if there is a conflict between a smoker's 2 parts of mind.

  How to make peace, how to clear a goal? You have to know what you want. When you know what you want then it's easy to achieve it. For example, if you are a smoker and you decided to quit smoking, then you have to find out why you want to quit.

 Does your wife or  your boss want you become a non-smoker? Do you want to save extra $350-$750 a month? (By the way that's a very good goal!) Do you have the health problems? (becoming a healthy non-smoker is a great goal as well!) All this questions have to be asked and answered.

  When you know exactly why you want to quit smoking, you will succeed, no doubt!

 Next question a smoker may ask me: "How do I know why I want to quit smoking?"

Well, as I said before, you can FELL what answer is right for you, because we think consciously and feel subconsciously.

 Check yourself now: picture yoursef as a non-smoker, pay attention to your feeling. If you FEEL this is right for you then this is right for you. Whatever you THINK this is right for you is not always right for you. So you have to FEEL that you want to quit smoking. Something that is pushing you start to do something about smoking, something that makes you look for help.

 I remember when I said to one of my client that I have an office in Upper West Side, he said to me : "Oh. it's too  far for me, I live in Brooklyn". Now it's obvious that he is not ready for Smoking Cessation, he doesn't want to quit on a subconscious level and if he will come to me for a hypnosis session, he won't quit!

 100% Self-Motivation is a must. Ethically we, the consulting hypnotists, can't make any smoker wants to quit smoking, it's illegal practice.

 Once again: a smoker has to be 100% motivated to stop smoking and his/her real reason for quitting smoking has to be known. When the goal is clear, them Smoking Cessation will be just an easy task to do for achieving that goal.
