		<description><![CDATA[In this way there is no debate inside you just a sense of freedom and peacefulness.  Smoking is just something you used to do.  A desire so strong which is backed up by the imagination so will power is not necessary.   <a href="http://zitastanley.com/stop-smoking/stop-smoking-successfully/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-1684" title="MP900309274" src="http://zitastanley.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/MP900309274-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" />Hypnosis to stop smoking creates a &#8220;want&#8221; to stop smoking, no &#8220;have to&#8221; or &#8220;need&#8221; but a desire to successfully quit smoking.  We will always do what we want to do, not what we need to do.  Need suggests an outside pressure but want is an internal desire to be free from cigarettes. </p>
<p>As a hypnotherapist I help you to tap into your mind. You have all the resources you will ever need to stop smoking. This desire to be free from cigarettes is automatic and natural. </p>
<p>If you feel ready (and only when you feel ready) to take control of your life call me on 086 1038992 or email <a href="mailto:zita@zitastanley.com">zita@zitastanley.com</a>.  Wouldn&#8217;t it be great to be finally free from those little white sticks?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-1385" title="No smoking words" src="http://zitastanley.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/No-smoking-words-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" />Perhaps one of your fears is what will you do with the cravings.  You fear the hold cigarettes have on you, the agony, the pains you will have suffer in order to become smokefree.  These can be accompanied with mood swings and irritability. </p>
<p>With hypnotherapy you can reframe these fears into excitement at what you are doing.  You want to embrace health and in return your lungs will reward with easier breathing and more energy.  This is the trade off.  How great is that thought? </p>
<p>Remember the nicotine leaves your body within 48 to 72 hours.  Any cravings you experienced in the past after this time have been the cravings from within your mind &#8211; your psychological attachment to cigarettes.  </p>
<p>Perhaps you have been a smoker most of your life &#8211; with the help of a qualified hypnotherapist you can address losing your &#8220;friend&#8221; &#8211; or what I like to call &#8220;frenemy&#8221;.  The change is coming from within your mind and your emotions.  When the decision to stop smoking is taken at the subconscious level &#8211; the same level where you learned to smoke then the magic happens and you can be confident in your ability to remain and stay smokefree.  Hypnotherapy will make the transition into a smokefree you easier.</p>
<p>To book a stop smoking session in Limerick, Portlaoise or Dublin City Centre, call Zita on 086 1038892 or email at <a href="mailto:zita@zitastanley.com">zita@zitastanley.com</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-1023" title="break cig" src="http://zitastanley.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/break-cig-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" />To stop smoking with ease you need to engage your subconscious mind.  Smoking is a subconscious habit and only your subconscious mind can un-do the habit.  The only way to access your subconscious mind is with hypnosis.</p>
<p>Hypnosis is a relaxation to ease the mind and body and when in this state, the subconscious mind is open to new behaviours as long as you can justify the reason for the change!  When you started smoking it served a purpose and the subconscious mind associated smoking with being a positive in your life.  Now that you are older and wiser, you need to re-programme the need to smoke into a need for a healthier life.  Because you want to stop smoking, it is easier with hypnosis as the desire to smoke is gone.</p>
<p>How great would it be to stop smoking with ease and begin a new smokefree life.  To get a different result, you have to do something different.</p>

The irritability, how will you cope, what will you do with your hands and you may have other thoughts? All of these are fears – apprehensions about what might happen. Of course, if this is what you believe and indeed, this may have been your experience with stopping smoking and these frustrations become the reality. Why is that? The simplest explanation is that it happens because you thought it. By visualising the hardship and difficulty stopping cigarette smoking, you set in train the course of irritability and inability to cope with stressful situations. But what if there was another way? With hypnosis you are learning a technique that allows you to feel more calm and relaxed. In your session with me, we look at what you believe life will be like being smokefree &#8211; the fears and how you can make adjustments to feel great about your decision. The emphasis is that you can stop smoking as long as you want to stop smoking.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2><strong><strong> </strong></strong></p>
<div id="attachment_795" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 310px"><strong><strong><strong><a href="http://zitastanley.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/cigs-lots.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-795 " title="cigs lots" src="http://zitastanley.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/cigs-lots-300x214.jpg" alt="Cigarettes" width="300" height="214" /></a></strong></strong></strong><p class="wp-caption-text">Cigarettes Butts</p></div>
<p><strong><strong> </strong></strong></h2>
<h2><strong>The top five reasons to give up smoking are:</strong></h2>
<ol>
<li> Health – are you  already suffering the ill effects of smoking? Perhaps members of yo ur family are affected by second hand smoke leading to bronchitis, asthma or other health problems.</li>
<li>Better professional image – do you really want to be remembered for your smoky breath and stale smell on your body from smoking cigarettes. You are brighter when you are smoke free.</li>
<li>Sense of achievement – you have been controlled by cigarettes for so long. Now your desire to be happy, healthy and smoke free is driving you to take back control of you.</li>
<li>Set a good image – maybe you have a baby or grandchild and you wish to set a good example to children. Or perhaps you have been promoted and your desire to be smoke free is two fold – better image at work and encouraging those under you to be become smoke free.</li>
<li>More money – think what you could do with the money you can save by not spending it on cigarettes. It is like a tax free pay rise for you.</li>
</ol>
<h2>Am I Ready to be Smoke free?</h2>
<p>Ask yourself the following questions, take your time and answer them honestly.</p>
<ul>
<li>What will being smoke free do for you?</li>
<li>What have you been getting out of smoking until now?</li>
<li>Can you list at least 3 reasons for becoming smoke free?</li>
<li>When do you want to be smoke free?</li>
<li>Is there any context in which you don’t want to be smoke free?</li>
<li>What stops you from making the change?</li>
<li>Is there anything you could lose as a result of being smoke free?</li>
<li>What will you gain by being smoke free.</li>
<li>What do you need to do in order to become smoke free?</li>
<li>Is what you want worth wanting?</li>
<li>What could go wrong?</li>
<li>Can anything stop you?</li>
<li>Are you ready to be smoke free?</li>
</ul>
<p>Write your answers down to make sure you have really thought about becoming smoke free.</p>
<h2>Check-list</h2>
<p>You need to make sure that you are 100% ready to be smoke free. The reason why you have not become smoke free in the past was probably due to the fact that part of you (at a subconscious level) wanted to continue smoking. See Am I Ready to be Smoke free?.</p>
<p><strong>You must ensure that:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>You are not undergoing any major life stresses at present;</li>
<li>You can devote 30 minutes a day to listen to your session for the next three weeks;</li>
<li>You are prepared to follow the Tips for Staying Smoke free.</li>
</ul>
<p>If you are a recovering alcoholic or drug addict you must ensure that you have a support system in place. You have worked hard to overcome your previous addiction so you do not want to revert</p>
<p>to it. Support is extremely important.</p>
<h2>Quit Smoking Right Now</h2>
<p>The Quit Smoking Right Now program is a tried, tested and proven technique of hypnosis and NLP that makes it so easy for you to quit the nicotine habit, that by the end of only one session, you can be a confident, happy, healthy, relaxed non-smoker!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If it is that easy to stop smoking with hypnosis/<strong>NLP </strong>why do so many people continue <a href="http://zitastanley.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/stub-out-cig.gif"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-787" title="stub out cig" src="http://zitastanley.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/stub-out-cig.gif" alt="" width="157" height="173" /></a>to smoke?</p>
<p>In my experience I have found that for most people the answer comes down to one thing&#8230;<strong>FEAR!</strong></p>
<p><strong>FEAR</strong> that you’ll never be able to continue your life as a non smoker and be completely free of nicotine;<br />
<strong>FEAR </strong>that you’ll put on weight or start biting your fingernails;<br />
<strong>FEAR </strong>that you’ll have to give up the pleasurable crutch that your smoking habit seems to give you;<br />
<strong>FEAR </strong>that in order to become smoke free you have to through some kind of terrible trauma or painful feelings;<br />
<strong>FEAR </strong>that when you become smoke free you are unable to enjoy life or handle stress;<br />
<strong>FEAR </strong>of failure in your attempts to become smoke free.</p>
<p>All of these examples of <strong>FEAR </strong>are simply potential symptoms of the one simple reason that until now you have not been able to stop smoking and this in itself is another <strong>FEAR</strong></p>
<p>The fear that it will prove too difficult and far too painful when you attempt to stop smoking!</p>
<p>Hypnosis or <strong>NLP</strong>, or anything else, cannot magically remove your need or desire to smoke. But it helps control your cravings, your urge to smoke. With the techniques you learn during our stop smoking program you gain tools to help you deal with stressful situations, whether by using a cue, a breathing technique or a mantra, without falling back to smoking.</p>
<p>Fear is the reason why most people are happy and content to stay in the their comfort zone even though they complain about what goes on around them. As the saying goes: &#8220;better the Devil you know&#8221;. There is a comfort about complaining. Do you know someone who drains you by constantly complaining? You ask &#8220;how are you&#8221; and you actually get to hear all about their woes and pains when in fact you just want a pleasantry back.</p>
<p>What is <strong>F.E.A.R.</strong> and why am I writing it like that. Well, let’s look at the letters:</p>
<p><strong>F</strong> is <strong>F</strong>alse</p>
<p><strong>E</strong> is <strong>E</strong>xpectation</p>
<p><strong>A</strong> is <strong>A</strong>ppearing</p>
<p><strong>R</strong> is <strong>R</strong>eal</p>
<p><strong>Fear </strong>= <strong>F</strong>alse <strong>E</strong>xpectations <strong>A</strong>ppearing <strong>R</strong>eal</p>
<p>Now say it again and again.</p>
<p>Now think of situations that made you fearful, but you did it anyway and then when it was over, you wondered why it had bothered you so much.</p>
<p>So don&#8217;t let your False Expectations Appearing Real hold you back. Take control of your life and quit smoking now.</p>
<h2>Tips for Staying Smoke Free</h2>
<ul>
<li>Get rid of all cigarettes and ashtrays before your stop smoking session or as soon as you possibly can after the session.</li>
<li>Drink plenty of water.</li>
<li>Enjoy some gentle exercise.</li>
<li>Focus on the benefits of being smoke free – health/finances/self esteem.</li>
<li>Change your routine – if you always smoked at break do something else.</li>
<li>Avoid smokers at least for the first 3 weeks.</li>
<li>Avoid nicotine patches, gum etc. – you could become addicted to these instead!</li>
<li>Find something else to do with your hands.</li>
<li>Choose to become smoke free when you are unlikely to become stressed.</li>
<li>Brush your teeth if you need to distract yourself.</li>
<li>Reward yourself for being smoke free for a week, two weeks etc. Motivation helps.</li>
<li>Remember the reasons why you became smoke free.</li>
<li>Remaining smoke free will not be easy but it will get easier each day that passes.</li>
<li>Have a &#8220;sponsor&#8221; in place for times of need. The best person may be someone who used to smoke. They know what you are going through.</li>
</ul>

<p>I can give you the mental tools to stop smoking for good.</p>
<p>When you first started smoking you had a very good reason to do so. Most smokers start smoking young and smoke cigarettes in order to be cool and fit in with their friends. Smoking was glamorous and grown up when you were a kid, but now you know the damage it is doing to your health and you want to stop.</p>
<p>If you are a woman how many men are turned off you because you smell like an ash tray? If you are a man how many women won&#8217;t want to kiss you because of the smell of stale smoke on your breath? Or perhaps you now have children of your own and want to set a good example for them. Whatever the reason I am sure you have tried to stop smoking many times before.</p>
<p>But it is hard to break the habits of a lifetime without any help. I can give you the help you need to quit smoking for good. Using the simple to learn techniques I will teach you how to break the habit for ever and free yourself from your addiction to smoking.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://zitastanley.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/no-smoking.png"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-978" title="no smoking" src="http://zitastanley.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/no-smoking.png" alt="" width="144" height="144" /></a>Deciding that you really want to stop is the key to successfully leaving smoking behind. No amount of external pressure from friends or family, or even for medical reasons will be enough unless you have the personal resolve to make the change for yourself.<br />
Making the decision to stop is only the first step. Maintaining your resolve and breaking the habit for good is an ongoing process that requires determination. Using simple self-hypnosis to keep relaxed and in control is key to successfully breaking free to live a smoke free life.<br />
I use a unique combination of Hypnosis and NLP techniques to teach you how to take control of your habit and make the change for yourself. I will teach you how to focus and maintain your own willpower so that you will never relapse &#8211; no matter what life throws at you.</p>
<p>Contact Declan on 089 4415297 to stop once and for all.</p>
