Resistance to Quitting by Doctor Regal

How do I deal with a client’s opposition to stopping smoking?

I give my clients, if needed, an opportunity to resist as long as it doesn't interfere with the ultimate goal of quitting completely. If someone smokes a cigarette immediately after a smoking cessation session, I understand that he is expressing his indignation with a "you can't tell me what to do gesture."

This happens because some people resent being told what to do. Yet once they have had their token “I am in charge” cigarette, they can regain their composure. Consistently using a tolerant but firm approach, I find that it is easier for my clients to attain that essential feeling of confidence to stop smoking completely. By discharging their initial resistance of being told what to do, they find themselves feeling free and ready to quit.

Take advantage of the positive aspects that hypnosis offers and be cigarette free! Consult with Dr. Regal and learn how!

Should Quitting Smoking be Your Number One Health Priority?

"What I’m going to say here may shock you, but I do not place quitting smoking as the number one priority if you still have not addressed other lifestyle factors. Yes, your goal is to stop smoking, but first, you need to fix your diet.

"Why?

"Because cigarettes are made up of many drugs, such as nicotine, that speed up your metabolism, causing you to burn calories more quickly. When you stop smoking and these drugs are no longer in your system, your metabolism slows down. This increases your tendency to put on weight. This, in conjunction with many behavioral components, causes people to reward themselves with sweets and desserts because they have accomplished such a great feat as quitting their smoking habit.

"Well, the problem is, sugar is actually more damaging to your body than smoking! And, ironically, sugar is one of the things people reward themselves with when they quit. In fact, many people are successful in quitting because they filled the void with something equally as addictive as cigarettes. But all this does is cause you to gain a large amount of weight as a result of raising your insulin levels, which will likely increase your risk for disease more than continuing to smoke.

"My advice to anyone who wants to quit smoking is to first address your dietary issues. You can do this by eating healthy foods that will nourish your body, instead of contributing to weight gain.

"Restrict your intake of sugar and grains. This change alone will boost your energy and help you feel more calm and collected. And if you have any allergies, this will go a long way to addressing them as well.

"In addition, it’s vital that you exercise, sleep well, and address your emotional challenges. Then, once you're feeling good and healthy, you will be better able to address the issue of quitting your smoking habit. What WILL help you to quit is the support of a balanced diet of high quality unprocessed foods, one rich in nutrients and live foods such as vegetables and fruits, all preferably organic and locally grown."

Smoking is Harmful to Ones Health

Statistical reports from 2006 indicate that nearly one in five women and one in four men in the U.S. smoke cigarettes.

Smokers are at an increased risk for lung, breast, throat, stomach, and other cancers, as well as a variety of illnesses including heart attacks, strokes, emphysema and asthma.

Anyone who smokes more than one pack of cigarettes a day has a 20-25 times greater risk of developing lung cancer than someone who has never smoked cigarettes.

Around nine out of every ten victims of lung cancer is caused from smoking cigarettes.

A person who smokes more than one pack of cigarettes a day has over a 2000% greater risk of developing lung cancer than someone who has never smoked cigarettes.

Stop Smoking Cigarettes For Good by Doctor Regal

Have you ever tried to quit smoking and discovered that you cannot? Do you know what is preventing you from succeeding?
Are you ready to go beyond your concerns, worries and doubts?

It is time to say goodbye to that double-faced friend forever. You no longer need that crutch for your pleasure. You can enjoy your life and manage very well without him. He is causing you more grief and misery than it is worth. Free your life from the awful trauma that he created. Forgive yourself for those insidious cravings that no longer have to be. Realize that you can finally triumph over this vice grip.

Stop smoking indefinitely. Breathe fully, deeply and easily again. Look younger. Feel healthier. Be happier.
Hypnosis is the quickest, safest and most efficient method for kicking the habit of smoking. Unlike other less successful methods, Hypnosis works because powerful suggestions are delivered directly into your subconscious mind and your desire to smoke is completely eliminated.

Understand however that you can totally quit smoking only when you are fully prepared to commit to that decision. Otherwise, you are not really ready to stop. Giving up this addiction is more than a simple wish, and it is so. You must be more than casually motivated to successfully terminate this habit. And yes, this is good news!

If you did not already know this, “All Hypnosis is Self Hypnosis.” You are responsible for the changes you create in your life. And this is now readily possible by learning Hypnosis. You can acquire the skills to empower yourself as your Hypnotherapist guides, teaches and supports you through your healing journey. And yes, there is more good news!

Our success rate with Hypnotism is exceptional. This is true because Hypnosis always works with willing Clients. We will only assist you when you are ready to say no to another puff, because once you commit to this life-changing event, it is a done deal. There is no turning back!

The keyword is “willing”. You must be willing to do this powerful process. This is a 100% total commitment. If you feel like you should stop smoking, or you would quit if you could but do not really want to, that really means you do not want to let go of this habit just yet. And that is okay, because you may not be ready, willing and able to completely relinquish smoking.

We just need to be sure that when you are really excited about transforming your life, it is your decision and from no one else. This is what self-empowerment is all about. You are the boss of your life’s decisions. You must be committed to the change in your lifestyle in order for it to happen. And when you are ready, the “magic” of Hypnosis will happen for you, just like it has for thousands of other successful candidates.
