However early you started smoking, you were not born a smoker and you don’t have to die a smoker. The majority of smokers in the UK want to quit and never start again. If you have tried to stop smoking, you will know that when you stop, you don’t crave every cigarette that you had previously smoked.
Let’s put this another way. When you give up you will notice that there are certain times you really, really, want to smoke a cigarette. For some people it is after a meal or with a drink; for others it is when they are driving the car and for some it is when they have put the tea on and they are waiting for it to cook. Whenever it is, if you add them up in a day they certainly do not equal the number of cigarettes you normally smoke.
This is because we are in the habit of lighting a cigarette at these times; it is part of our normal routine and behaviour. Our smoking habits are actually far more of a problem when we try to stop smoking than the actual nicotine addiction, and it is our behaviour that is most likely to be our downfall when we try to quit.
As an experienced therapeutic consultant who has helped thousands kick the habit, Rick Collingwood is only too well aware of how strongly ingrained in our subconscious these habits are and how difficult they are to change. He uses mild hypnotherapy in his hypnosis CDs and MP3 tracks to help you to restructure these automatic habits, so that they react in a totally different way to the situations that would normally make them light a cigarette.
