The Last Cigarette – Powerful Hypnosis to Quit Smoking for Good · The Hypnotist

• 0:05
  Welcome to The Hypnotist, the show that gives you inside
• 0:09
  access to cutting edge hypnosis with real clients facing
• 0:12
  genuine. Issues.
• 0:13
  Brought to you by the hypnotherapist, demanded by
• 0:16
  celebrities, CEOs and even royalty, Adam Cox.
• 0:20
  These recordings took place live from Evans Clinic in London's
• 0:24
  world famous Harley Street. So get yourself comfortable and
• 0:31
  enjoy today's episode of the. Hypnotist Adam here.
• 0:40
  Are you a smoker that wants to quit, or are you someone that
• 0:45
  really has quit and you never want to go back to smoking
• 0:48
  again? Because if so, I think you're
• 0:50
  going to get some value from this session.
• 0:53
  I was working with a client that had made the decision to be a
• 0:58
  non-smoker. Now they tried this before, they
• 1:01
  followed the Alan Carr easy way to quit smoking, had become a
• 1:05
  non-smoker for a few months. But then they fell into that
• 1:08
  trap. And that trap is telling
• 1:11
  themselves that it's OK just to have one or two.
• 1:14
  And that became a slippery slope back to them becoming a smoker
• 1:17
  again. And that's why in this session,
• 1:21
  there's two key components of it.
• 1:24
  The first is to make it clear that their last cigarette was
• 1:28
  their last cigarette and that they are already a nonsmoker.
• 1:32
  There's nothing they need to do now other than avoid having the
• 1:37
  next one. And that makes it feel easier to
• 1:40
  link to this identity of being a nonsmoker.
• 1:44
  And then secondly, there is an element of framing this idea of
• 1:48
  just one as a really sinister trap.
• 1:52
  And there's a lot of truth to that because actually nicotine
• 1:55
  is quite an addictive substance. And a lot of people and I've,
• 2:00
  I've done this a long time, I've worked with a lot of smokers
• 2:04
  that, you know, they were three months, six months, a year and
• 2:08
  then they went out with some friends, they had a few
• 2:11
  cigarettes and then before long they were back smoking like
• 2:14
  they'd never been a non-smoker. So it is a really sinister
• 2:18
  insidious trap, this kind of idea of just having one or two
• 2:22
  just an evening out. Now some people can be OK with
• 2:25
  that, but for a lot of people it lights up that part of the brain
• 2:29
  that they identify with being a smoker and a smoker smokes.
• 2:34
  So we've got this idea that they are a non-smoker that doesn't
• 2:36
  want to smoke and that perceives the idea of having one as a
• 2:40
  really sinister trap that would lure them back to all of the
• 2:44
  consequences they had financial health, even smells related to
• 2:50
  being a smoker. But then there's another element
• 2:53
  here of future pacing and getting all of the health
• 2:57
  benefits of this new identity. So cleaner skin, feeling
• 3:02
  healthier for them. They're in the health and
• 3:04
  Wellness industry, so it felt more congruent.
• 3:07
  There was no hypocrisy in this future of them not being a
• 3:11
  smoker, but also a good role model to their daughter.
• 3:14
  And what I've learned being a therapist is that people are
• 3:17
  willing to do more for other people than they ever do for
• 3:19
  themselves, particularly children.
• 3:21
  So if you can relate or resonate to any of these ideas, then I
• 3:25
  think you're going to get some value from this session.
• 3:28
  Please bear in mind it was created for a specific
• 3:32
  individual and therefore some of the suggestions that relate to
• 3:36
  health and Wellness or being a role model to their daughter
• 3:39
  might not connect with you at all.
• 3:40
  Disregard any suggestions that aren't quite right except the
• 3:44
  ones that are empowering and useful for you.
• 3:48
  And if the idea of working with me directly so that in the same
• 3:52
  way that this was a customized session for that client, I can
• 3:55
  create a customized session for you and actually do the hypnosis
• 3:58
  live. A lot of people don't realize
• 4:01
  that what you actually see or hear in these recordings is the
• 4:04
  actual live session that I did with the client, but I only
• 4:08
  record my voice to protect their confidentiality.
• 4:11
  That's what I can do for you. So if that seems interesting, so
• 4:15
  there will be a link in the show notes in the description where
• 4:18
  you can book a completely free consultation call to explore the
• 4:21
  idea of working with me. For now though, you might get
• 4:24
  some real value from this session.
• 4:26
  So find a quiet, comfortable place where you won't be
• 4:28
  disturbed. Relax and enjoy the session.
• 5:03
  Take a deep breath in, and as you breathe in, breathe in that
• 5:10
  feeling of calm relaxation. And as you exhale, just allow
• 5:16
  your eyelids to close. And as they close, notice how
• 5:23
  much easier it becomes to focus on the sound of my voice as you
• 5:29
  breathe in relaxation and exhale tension, each breath giving you
• 5:40
  a wonderful feeling of release. And I want you to breathe in
• 5:47
  that feeling of health and vitality and exhale all of those
• 5:59
  feelings of incongruency, secrecy, or feelings of
• 6:10
  dependency. Just allow them to leave your
• 6:13
  body in your outward breath. And when you breathe in, breathe
• 6:21
  in for longer. And as you exhale, exhale longer
• 6:30
  than you normally would, and any tightness around the chest, just
• 6:36
  feel that melting away because that's just echoes of tension
• 6:44
  from a previous version of you. But as of a recent decision,
• 6:53
  that doesn't belong to you anymore.
• 6:56
  So allow that tension to leave your body in the next outward
• 7:01
  breath. That's it.
• 7:05
  Feel yourself drifting deeper and deeper, relaxed.
• 7:16
  And the deeper you breathe, the more relaxed you become.
• 7:21
  And the more relaxed you become, the deeper you breathe, as you
• 7:28
  start to enter that wonderful cycle of ever increasing and
• 7:35
  deeper feelings of relaxation. And you can notice the gentle
• 7:41
  rhythm of your breathing and with each breath out, feel
• 7:47
  yourself letting go just a little bit more.
• 7:53
  Imagine your arms and legs feeling limp, loose and heavy,
• 7:59
  and allow yourself to notice that your mind is becoming
• 8:06
  lighter, almost as though with each exhale the old version of
• 8:15
  you is dissolving, and within each inhale, the new you is
• 8:25
  beginning to emerge. Your eyelids are heavy, your
• 8:31
  thoughts slowing down as though you're sinking into a calm, safe
• 8:38
  space. And it's here, in this safe
• 8:43
  space, that you can allow your imagination to do the work.
• 8:51
  Because your unconscious mind already knows the way forward.
• 8:59
  So as your imagination awakens, I want you to imagine what it
• 9:03
  would feel like to drift back to a time where you felt proud of
• 9:12
  your decision to not smoke and to be a non-smoker and just
• 9:19
  imagine. It's at the end of the day and
• 9:25
  feel how good it feels to have no desire to smoke because that
• 9:33
  temporary feeling of gratification just isn't as
• 9:38
  pleasurable as feelings of self pride and satisfaction and
• 9:43
  accomplishment that you experience.
• 9:51
  Imagine the rituals that you would do in that final hour
• 9:58
  before sleeping. Feel that you are establishing a
• 10:05
  healthy ritual that doesn't need a substance filled with
• 10:15
  carceogens and horrible smells. I want you to feel that you are
• 10:24
  reactivating that version of you that knows how good it feels to
• 10:32
  what to not want and not need any cigarette at all.
• 10:44
  I just imagine drifting deeper down now, drifting into a
• 10:54
  dreamlike sleep where your arms and legs get limp, loose and
• 10:59
  heavy, your jaw relaxes, your eyelids get heavier, and your
• 11:06
  breathing slows even more. And I want you to imagine coming
• 11:19
  to a wonderful, empowering conclusion that the last
• 11:27
  cigarette was your last and final cigarette.
• 11:35
  It marked the very moment you stopped being a smoker.
• 11:43
  You can consider this line in the sand.
• 11:50
  From that moment you became a non-smoker.
• 11:58
  Not someone trying to quit or seeing how it goes, but a
• 12:04
  non-smoker. Simply someone who does not need
• 12:10
  or want to smoke. And because you've made that
• 12:16
  decision, you can feel that pride right now, feel the
• 12:22
  certainty in your body like a weight lifted, a lightness in
• 12:29
  your body, and feel a wonderful sense of energy flowing into
• 12:34
  you. And maybe you can notice that
• 12:42
  your chest feels freer, more open, knowing that any
• 12:51
  congestion there as a result of smoking will find its way out of
• 12:58
  your body. And if there is a feeling in the
• 13:04
  short term of having a bit of a cough, that is simply evidence
• 13:09
  of your body healing. So you can breathe more deeply
• 13:18
  and more fully and just allow the tightness to melt away.
• 13:26
  And with every deep, clear breath you take, you invite
• 13:31
  health, vitality and strength. So imagine yourself now feeling
• 13:44
  even more motivated to exercise, feeling that your body is now
• 13:51
  craving movement, stretching, and freedom more than it ever
• 13:57
  did nicotine. And every step, every action
• 14:05
  becomes proof of this positive shift, proof of who you are now,
• 14:15
  proof that you've escaped the trap that many people never
• 14:21
  escape. I want you to get a feeling of
• 14:28
  freedom and liberation thinking of those people that could never
• 14:36
  or will never escape that trap. But you have.
• 14:44
  It's in your past now, and if ever in the future there's a
• 14:52
  small inner voice whispering, goading, or taunting you, why
• 14:59
  not? I want you to immediately feel a
• 15:05
  flood of very valid reasons why not the main being, but it's
• 15:12
  simply not worth it because you've walked away from that
• 15:19
  sinister trap disguised as just one, and you see it clearly now
• 15:27
  for what it is, a trap. And the trap only leads back to
• 15:37
  frustration, disappointment, shame, regret.
• 15:47
  And because you've fallen into that trap before, you are more
• 15:52
  prepared than ever to avoid any future traps.
• 15:58
  Because that real you, the true you, has already escaped that
• 16:05
  trap and has no plans on returning.
• 16:11
  And every time you remind yourself that you have escaped
• 16:15
  the trap, you feel stronger, prouder and freer.
• 16:27
  I want you to imagine a fishing hook.
• 16:31
  A tiny fishing hook trapped inside a cigarette.
• 16:43
  And imagine hearing that charming, tenacious, harmless
• 16:49
  voice. Go on, you can have one.
• 16:54
  Why not? I want you to imagine that sharp
• 16:59
  hook inside and just as a fish in a pond see something
• 17:08
  tempting, desirable. They don't know the hook is
• 17:14
  there until it's too late. And I want you to imagine
• 17:20
  something disgusting, not the cigarette, but the connotation
• 17:28
  of it. I want you to imagine it's been
• 17:32
  two or three months of being that non-smoker and the idea of
• 17:38
  just one pops into your head. And I want you to imagine having
• 17:44
  that just one, that there is a sharp hook inside.
• 17:51
  And at the very point where that just one is either starting or
• 17:57
  finishing, I want you to imagine that sharp hook getting launched
• 18:03
  into your lip and you are being pulled back to something that
• 18:10
  erodes your health, your confidence, your feelings of
• 18:18
  health and vitality. That if someone else were to
• 18:23
  force your health to decline, you would call it abuse or
• 18:28
  poisoning. I want you to get that
• 18:32
  connotation that there is a hook in every just one.
• 18:41
  And sometimes a fish gets lucky, they nibble on the bait, but the
• 18:47
  hook doesn't quite reel them in. But that close call, that near
• 18:59
  miss, often doesn't work on a fish because their memories
• 19:04
  aren't very long. So the next time they see that
• 19:08
  tempting bait, they haven't learned from the past and sooner
• 19:15
  or later the hook reels them in. And maybe you'll be lucky that
• 19:24
  just one is just a near miss or a close call.
• 19:31
  But what if it's got that hook in that reels you back and keeps
• 19:36
  you hooked? I want you to get a sense that
• 19:41
  the risk is not worth it. Not that you can't smoke, but
• 19:47
  that you don't want to. It's not worth the risk.
• 19:53
  And if your unconscious mind is now willing to frame just one,
• 20:00
  is that potential trap hooking you back to a past that you've
• 20:05
  already escaped from? You know, by nodding your head.
• 20:14
  Because the best way of thinking about a change is to ask
• 20:19
  yourself the question, If I had never done this thing, would I
• 20:26
  start now? Knowing all of the consequences.
• 20:31
  And if the answer is no, then that's the reason why not.
• 20:41
  And as you consider that a seed planted deep in your
• 20:44
  subconscious mind, I'd like you to imagine yourself six months
• 20:48
  from now, maybe a year from now. Imagine standing in front of a
• 20:56
  full length mirror and I want you to look at your reflection
• 21:03
  in the mirror. Six months a year of being a
• 21:08
  non-smoker and I want you to see yourself with glowing skin, a
• 21:14
  healthy colour in your face, eyes brighter, body lighter,
• 21:20
  energy renewed, you're walking tall, breathing easily, breathe
• 21:28
  any cravings at all, every fibre of you being congruent with your
• 21:34
  decision. You see yourself living with
• 21:38
  more energy and enthusiasm than ever before, and you may even
• 21:45
  notice your daughter looking up to you as you realize this
• 21:54
  congruency. Integrity means that you're more
• 22:00
  of a role model because of that decision you made all those
• 22:05
  months before. Someone strong, disciplined,
• 22:09
  committed, and free. You were the one that was able
• 22:16
  to escape the trap and resist the temptation to go back.
• 22:24
  Your daughter sees you and knows what it means to make powerful
• 22:28
  choices, to see you being proud, not just for her, but for you.
• 22:37
  For the healthy, powerful, future focused you that you've
• 22:44
  become. And I want you to embody that
• 22:49
  feeling of being free from smoking for an entire year.
• 22:55
  Would you really trade that to go back?
• 23:01
  Those smells, that tightness, any shame, regret or secrecy,
• 23:11
  any frustration or lack of motivation.
• 23:16
  So why not? Because you don't want it.
• 23:21
  It's not that you can't have it. You simply don't want it
• 23:25
  anymore. And if that feels true in the
• 23:29
  future and true now, let me know by nodding your head.
• 23:36
  And because of that, from this moment on, you are free.
• 23:40
  That last cigarette was your last cigarette.
• 23:45
  You are a non-smoker and the old version of you you could always
• 23:53
  go back to. But you don't want to because in
• 23:58
  this version of you, your mind, body and identity are aligned,
• 24:04
  healthier, lighter, full of energy and proud of your choice.
• 24:11
  Proud of this new identity, a non-smoker that doesn't need to
• 24:16
  smoke, want to smoke and knows that just one is a trap, a risk
• 24:24
  not worth taking. So take a deep breath now and
• 24:29
  let it fill you with the feeling of pride and vitality.
• 24:34
  And as you exhale, release the past completely and when you're
• 24:40
  ready, bring this future identity and good feelings with
• 24:45
  you back into the present. And very soon I will count from
• 24:51
  1:00 to 10:00 to awaken you. But it is the non-smoker that
• 24:56
  will awaken. The smoker is in your past, a
• 25:03
  past that you have moved on from.
• 25:07
  So take a deep breath in through your nose and out through your
• 25:12
  nose. Just wiggle your fingers and
• 25:15
  wiggle your toes. Connect and calibrate into the
• 25:18
  here and the now as I now count from 1:00 to 10:00 to awaken
• 25:24
  you. Starting to count 123 waking up
• 25:30
  456 more alert 7-8. Open your eyes.
• 25:34
  Open your eyes, 910. Wide awake, wide awake, wide
• 25:40
  awake. Thank you so much for joining me
