I really didn't want to quit. I went because everyone was telling me I was going to die young, meanwhile I watched as the wrinkles around my mouth got deeper and deeper. One session with Rita and I knew I'd never smoke again. Imagine, 25 years of smoking and I walked out never to smoke again. Freedom! Thanks Rita! (Disclaimer: Results may vary)

Before coming to see you, I tried to quit at LEAST 10 times before. I used books, gum, will-power and more... Thanks to you, I am not just a non-smoker, but a HAPPY non-smoker. Achieving this has profoundly effected my confidence. I really don't miss it! (Disclaimer: Results may vary)

Why You Haven’t Been Able to Stop
Most smokers want to stop smoking for many reasons-health, social stigma, feeling like a slave to their smoking habit-so why don’t they just stop? The problem is the conscious mind wants to stop-that is the part of our mind that reads the research and health reports and hears the news about how bad smoking is for your health. That is also the part of the mind that knows that smoking is now banned in all public places and that fewer and fewer people see smoking as glamorous or cool but now see it as a bad habit. The conscious mind also knows that smoking is expensive, smells, and the list goes on and on…!
However, many find it difficult to quit smoking because the bigger part of the brain, the unconscious mind, DOESN’T KNOW ANY OF THE BAD ASPECTS OF SMOKING that the conscious mind is aware of! The unconscious mind thinks, “My cigarettes relax me,” “They give me a break,” “They are something to do with my hands or when I am bored,” “I have to have my cigarette with my coffee in the morning!” “There is nothing like a cigarette and a glass of wine!” “I have to smoke when I drive!”
“I tried so many things to stop before-gums, patches, that stupid e-cigarette that made me feel and look like a fool. When I think I avoided hypnosis because it seemed weird and now look back on how weird and ridiculous those other methods were in comparison to my easy, pleasant, fun session with Rita, I really have to laugh. But, at least I am laughing as a non-smoker without the smoker’s hack I used to have when I laughed.” – Roberto Gonzalez , Brea CA * (Disclaimer: results may vary)
Why You Can Stop With Shift Hypnosis
Hypnosis isn’t magic, but it is a powerful relaxing mind state that can be accessed by almost everyone (see FAQ). Once the mind is in the state of hypnosis, the unconscious mind(which is usually very resistant to change in our normal waking state), becomes more open to ideas of change. When the person being hypnotized consciously wants the change, then suggestions are given that the unconscious can accept and so that both the conscious and unconscious mind can be aligned to make the powerful decision to become a non-smoker. * (Disclaimer: results may vary)
