Smoking is a habit and not an addiction. It’s often a strong habit as it is often associated with fitting in and survival. Pavlov was a Russian psychologist that trained dogs by ringing a bell when he fed them. Eventually, he got to the stage where when he rang the bell, the dogs would salivate and expect food. You see, he trained them well.
As a smoker, this is exactly what you have done. You have trained yourself well to smoke with certain circumstances and triggers. You have trained yourself to smoke when you get stressed, drink alcohol, after meals etc. millions of people daily go through these circumstances without having to smoke a cigarette. They have a different habit of coping with this that does not involve smoking.
The good news is, and there is always good news, that because your smoking is a habit, it can be broken. All you have to do is to want to break this habit, and you can. Just as you have trained yourself to smoke under certain circumstances, you can train yourself not to. Hypnosis is a great way to undo your smoking training as it addresses the habit directly in the unconscious mind. Because of this, hypnosis has a higher success rate than all other methods. Hypnosis allows you to replace one habit with another, in this case, to replace the habit of smoking with breathing fresh air.
