TOP REASONS TO QUIT SMOKING WITH HYPNOTHERAPY

Financial Costs - The real cost of the average smoker is over £2,000 a year, in 10 years that's more than £20,000 and in 20 years that well over £40,000. This can be saved the moment you become a non smoker.

Mortality - Smoking is the leading preventable cause of death in the developed world. The average smoker looses 16 years of their own life expectancy. 50% of smokers will die as a direct result of smoking. This can be reversed the moment you become a non smoker.

Current Diseases - Smoking is associated with more than 50 different diseases and disorders, many fatal. Since the day you started smoking it has been suppressing your immune system and interfering with your brain and nervous system. Within 15 years of stopping smoking health returns to that of a non smoker. Health improvements begin within twenty minutes the moment you becoming a non smoker.

Physical ugliness - Smoking makes your breath stink and your teeth decay. Smoking causes wrinkling of the skin. Limb amputations are a major risk in peripheral arterial disease (PAD), and smokers have a 10-16 times greater risk of developing PAD than non-smokers.  Smoking changes the waist to hip ratio of fat distribution in women making them more likely to develop a male paunch. Mouth and hair no longer smell of smoke, senses of taste and smell improve and health improved the moment you became a non smoker.

Wasted time and energy - Smoking is a colossal waste of time and energy. Smokers spend a huge amount of time smoking, buying cigarettes, finding places to buy cigarettes and smoke and thinking about smoking. A real inconvenience and a sense of being enslaves by a drug. Never again will you have to plan every activity around cigarette smoking when you stop wasting yours and others time by choosing to use it more effectively and resourcefully with the added great health benefits, when you become a non smoker.

Social problems - Smoking is powerfull modeling to those around them. Children of smokers are three times more likely to smoke themselves. Smokers subject others to their habit through passive smoking and smell. Put yourself in charge of your life by having a feeling of accomplishment and self-respect creating a healthier space for those around you when you become a non smoker.

Stress-smoke spiral - Most smokers use cigarettes to calm their nerves, by self medicating as if it were a mild sedative. However, cigarettes are a powerful stimulant. Smokers may well be injecting themselves with adrenalin in their attempts to cope with a stressful or challenging situation. A smokers heart beats 9 beats faster per minute than a non smoker. Smoking gives an illusion of calming because smokers have a higher arousal rate than non smokers. You can become happier, less depressed and more in control of your body and mind when you become a non smoker today.
