Woes of a Stop Smoking Hypnotherapist, A Day in the Life of a Stop Smoking Hypnotherapist, Tales from a Frustrated Meridian Therapist, Stop Smoking - Hypnotherapy? I have been grappling somewhat with what to call this article. The possibilities are endless.

Let me illustrate with the following common scenario.

Potential Client:
"I stopped smoking with hypnosis three times this year and it worked every time."

What I wish I could say:
"What part of "worked" exactly do you not get?"

What I actually end up saying:
"Oh that's great! Now there's a new and exciting method that modern hypnotherapists use that you'll find even better..."

Potential Client occasionally says:
"Oh no, I want none of that tapping stuff, oh no, not for me, I want hypnotherapy. I know it works."

What I then really want to say:
"What part of "works" exactly do you not get?"

One day, I will have clients always ringing up about EFT, a great meridian therapy, for smoking cessation. Now, this is not the norm. Even people who have never had hypnosis before are convinced it is the best thing for them. Take the following scenario.

Potential Client:
"I want to stop smoking with hypnotherapy. My friend did it and was very successful."

Me:
"That's great. Hypnotherapy is very good for stopping smoking."

Potential Client.
"Yes, it is. My friend did it a year ago and it worked. She stopped for 3 months. I was really impressed!"

What I wish I could say:
"What part of "worked" exactly do you not get?"

What I actually end up saying:
"Oh that's great! Now there's a new and exciting method that modern hypnotherapists use that you'll find even better..."

Of course, meridian therapies like EFT and TFT, are relatively new compared to hypnotherapy or hypnosis. And we always want the familiar. The new is, well, just too new. And of course, there is no certainty that the new way will work. But if the old way didn't work that well anyway, you have nothing to lose by trying the new.

If you are thinking of stopping smoking, really as long as the method works, go for it. Keep an open mind and keep trying until you succeed for good. Try a meridian therapy like EFT or TFT. You may be pleasantly surprised.
