OK, you’ve not only decided it’s time to quit smoking, you are absolutely committed to a positive outcome. Congratulations! That’s awesome!

The next step is to figure out the method you want to use. It won’t be easy, but you’re up to the challenge! And keep in mind that hypnosis could be your best ally.

Here are the top methods presently employed when withdrawing from cigarettes:

Alternative Therapies – This is the category that acupuncture, hypnosis, and meditation fall under. These therapies address both mental and physical habits that you have developed pertaining to smoking. While some people have used these methods alone and accomplished outstanding results, they are excellent complements to other treatments as well.

Behavioral Therapy – In this therapy you will work with a counselor to identify “triggers” and create a plan to deal with them.

Cold Turkey – With this method there is no outside support; no aids, therapy, or medicines of any kind.

Medicine – This includes medications prescribed by your doctor such as buproprion and varenicline to ease cravings and withdrawal symptoms.

Nicotine Replacement Therapy –  This treatment comes in the form of gum, inhalers, lozenges, patches, and sprays. These items will deliver the nicotine your body is craving in a much safer form. Gradually you’ll decrease your nicotine consumption and hopefully give it up altogether. Keep in mind that if you’re under the age of eighteen, you’ll need a doctor’s permission in order to use this type of therapy.

Support Therapies –  These therapies employ smoking-cessation counselors and stop-smoking support groups.

Treatment Combinations –  Exactly what it says. You may use one, two, or any number of the methods listed above in conjunction with each other.

While some of these methods may work better than others, the real question (that only you can answer) is which of these are you going to stick to? And once you’ve decided, rest assured that hypnosis is another tool at your disposal that may address any of your identified triggers and help you not only gain success, but do so on your terms.
