ADVANCED STOP SMOKING PROGRAMME TAILORED FOR YOU |
||||
Harmony4Life aims to help people improve their lives using hypnotherapy and coaching and is based on the belief that anyone can do anything if they put their mind to it.
Claire says “people may not understand how these tools are used and their benefits. Coaching facilitates improvements in performance and life by challenging, empowering and developing individuals. Hypnotherapy teaches you to redirect your internal resources so that you take control of your life and achieve your goals. These are two of the most powerful tools for empowering people and ensuring they move forward. Both move away from the theoretical Psychology I was taught at University and instead provide practical ways of making dreams a reality”.
Coaching and hypnotherapy is effective for a wide range of issues. This includes stopping smoking, stress relief, building confidence, improving relationships, enhancing sports performance, weight and pain management. Claire will help you pin down your goals and understand barriers that may stop you achieving them. Where possible the root cause of any barriers to success will be addressed so that you can live the life you want, e.g. past experiences leading to lack of confidence.
Why use hypnotherapy, Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP)
and coaching to stop smoking?
In March 2006, MPs voted to ban smoking in all public places in England from summer 2007. Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales are already committed to this. As such NOW has never been a better time to become a non-smoker. There are two elements to substance addictions- physical and psychological. The former is not that strong and dissipates within days, as reflected by the fact that chain smokers can sleep for 8 hours or more without smoking! Yet the psychological need can last for years. Hypnotherapy has proven a successful and easy way of deleting this from the mind. The New Scientist (1993) stated that “(Ordinary) hypnosis (with a 36% success rate) is the most effective way of giving up smoking, based on the largest scientific comparison of ways of breaking the habit” (Chockalingam and Schmidt 1992). Clients say they don’t think about smoking for long periods or have the urge to smoke following hypnotherapy.
Some specialised and extended hypnotherapy programmes have success rates of 88-94% (Kline 1970 & Von Dedenroth, 1968). This compares with Acupuncture (3%), Nicotine Gum (11-13%) and Nicotine Patches (13-16%) (Law & Tang, 1995; Chockalingam and Schmidt, 1992).
Over a few sessions, Claire uses a combination of NLP coaching, motivational interviewing and hypnotherapy, for deeper lasting results. This advanced programme is crucial in discovering and understanding the triggers for your cravings and removing them. In a report by O’Driscoll (2002) ‘standard’ hypnotherapy (using only suggestion therapy) was compared to ‘advanced’ hypnotherapy (using a combination of hypnotherapy and NLP techniques). After 6 months 57% of the ‘standard’ group were non-smokers compared to 97% of the ‘advanced’ group.
