Electronic Cigarettes. Are they safe?

At the moment the jury is out about if e cigarettes are safe or not. Here’s something I’d like you to consider, but before that a little information on nicotine.

Nicotine is extremely poisonous and it is only the fact that your body heat causes a change in molecular structure that prevents it from killing you. Nicotine has been used for many years to produce some very effective pesticides so that gives you some idea of how poisonous it can be.

When you inhale nicotine it causes your blood vessels […]

Some myths about smoking

I was just recently reading an article of how a university in America was going to ban smoking on campus. In the article the writer said that few or if any people gave up smoking after 26 because it was so addictive.
At Quit Smoking Expert here in Capalaba we help a lot of people to quit smoking cigarettes in 60 minutes. Because of this I think we are in a position to say that this is really not true at all.
What we have found is that the majority of people that come to us to quit smoking using hypnosis are […]

Don’t replace one bad habit with another

At Quit Smoking Expert people come to me to stop smoking cigarettes in 60 minutes. They think that once they have quit smoking they will have a healthy life. It’s not that simple.

Quitting smoking cigarettes is really just the beginning of leading a healthy life. Unfortunately a lot of people do not realise this and become disappointed. One of the really bad habits that I frequently encounter is the substitute of food for smoking.

It is a complete myth that you substitute food for smoking. It is a choice […]

Stuff Health I Want to Smoke!

I had an interesting case last week from a client who came to see me at Quit Smoking in 60 Minutes in Capalaba.

The client had a heart attack and as a result he quit smoking. He had quit for two years but came to see me because he was getting cravings to smoke again. It was so bad that he was avoiding having any contact with anyone that was smoking. Since most of his workmates were smokers he was avoiding them and getting a reputation of being anti-social.

What was […]

What’s does it really cost?

When people come to me to quit smoking at Quit Smoking in 60 Minutes we always talk about the cost of smoking.

What is interesting is that some people have an idea of how much it is costing them but the vast majority have no idea of the cost of their smoking habit. In Australia today it is costing $1 per cigarette. This means that the average smoker is now spending about $8000 a year.

Before using hypnosis I point this out and a lot of my clients are shocked […]

Is That Really True?

When people come to me to quit smoking at Transformations Coaching and Hypnotherapy I ask them why they want to quit smoking cigarettes. This is a vital question because it is the prime motivator for quitting.

The usual answers are health, money, children, control, smell and it is anti-social. But is this really the true reason?

There is a lot more under these answers and one needs to get to these to really have an successful outcome. If you look at a lot of the reasons why a person wants to quit cigarettes you will find that the underlying motivation is to […]

I’m Afraid To Quit

A lot of people that come to see us at Quit Smoking in 60 Minutes in Capalaba say that they are afraid or fearful about quitting smoking.

We use hypnotherapy to help people to quit smoking in 60 minutes and a key to this being successful is that the person must want to quit smoking cigarettes. if they are fearful about quitting then this must first be addressed.

They see smoking as almost a friend: it’s always there for them and they have been doing it for a long time. What will they do if they do not have smoking?

Let’s look at […]

What’s Underneath?

We sometimes get clients at Quit Smoking expert who go back to smoking after the quit smoking in 60 minutes process. There are usually two main reasons: the client does not really quit or deep in the unconscious mind there is a perceived benefit.
This perceived benefit in the unconscious mind was really brought home to me the other day. I had a client the other day that had successfully stopped smoking cigarettes with hypnosis for over a year and then started again.
When the client arrived I asked him to tell me what had happened and how it had made them […]

It doesn’t control me

Just recently at Quit Smoking expert in Capalaba I conducted a survey on clients to see if they thought that smoking and cigarettes controlled them. only about 30% of people thought that smoking controlled them which was quite surprising.

If you think about it the act of smoking cigarettes these days is very inconvenient. There are fewer and fewer places to smoke and it is more and more anti-social. People have to go out in all sorts of weather to smoke and interrupt what they are doing to smoke.

You […]

What’s Down Under?

At Quit Smoking Expert we sometimes get people who believe that they want to quit smoking cigarettes but there is something else going on underneath it all. Quitting smoking in 60 minutes requires all of your focus and attention to succeed. If you have something going on down under then the chances of you quitting smoking are significantly reduced.

I had someone come to me to quit smoking. During the initial questioning some of his answers lead me to ask the question, “what’s going on in your relationship?”.
