English Hypnotherapist in Belgium
Smoking - Weight loss - Confidence
SMOKING is the main reason people ask for hypnosis.  It is the best way to stop smoking.  Far more successful than Nicorette chewing gum, nicotine patches, acupuncture, cold turkey and sheer willpower.  From the moment you book the session, you become a non-smoker.

SUCCESS RATES of STOP SMOKING METHODS
"Hypnosis is the most effective way of giving up smoking, according to the largest ever scientific comparison of ways of breaking the habit. Willpower, it turns out, counts for very little". (New Scientist, Volume 136 issue 1845 31 Oct 1992, page 6)

95% of the clients who come to me stop smoking in one session of hypnosis.

"I was relaxed but consciously aware of my surroundings so I found it hard to believe that hypnosis would work after just one session. But I was very impressed. I thought it would be difficult but I found it relatively easy to stop smoking. I am not troubled by other people's smoking. I used to enjoy smoking but now I enjoy not smoking. I quickly found I can breathe more deeply and have noticed two other health improvements. After four weeks, I am still a motivated non-smoker." - James Benn, Brussels.

SMOKING BAN IN CAFÉS FROM 1 JULY 2011.  

There are many reasons to stop: bad for your health, expensive waste of money, no smoking rules at work or in bars/restaurants, planes etc., anti-social habit, passive smoke inhaled by family members especially children, smelly clothes and hair, ageing effect on your skin etc.  I just ask one thing - that you want to stop for your own reason(s), not that someone else is pressuring you to quit.

So many conditioned thoughts can lead you to believe it is difficult to stop smoking:

“Quitting is so hard.”  “I can’t stop thinking about cigarettes.”  “I’ll put on weight if I stop”.  (A common misconception.)  “I need to smoke to relieve stress.”  “I always smoke after a meal (or sex).”

With my help, you will stop smoking by relaxing and changing your thoughts about smoking.  I do not use "aversion therapy" which makes you feel sick whenever you smell cigarette smoke but just reprogramme your mind to see you as a non-smoker.  You will enjoy the freedom from slavery to smoking and my post-hypnotic suggestions will ensure you do not replace smoking with over-eating leading to weight gain.

Some people even need therapy to break their addiction to Nicorette chewing gum or nicotine patches so don't take the risk - choose the natural, relaxing way to become a non-smoker.

"I used to love smoking but needed to stop for health reasons.  If you could make me stop in one session, you can make anyone stop."  - C.P., Waterloo

ALCOHOL
- The same applies to addiction to alcohol, whether you are an alcoholic or just drink too much or for the wrong reasons.  Recently I helped a man who regularly drank a bottle of wine and 2-3 spirits every day.  After just one session, he does not think about drink and has no need or desire to drink.  

I helped another man who still wanted to be able to enjoy a Belgian beer or two without giving up alcohol completely.  He just wanted to be in control of his drinking, rather than the other way round.

I can also help with other addictions such as cannabis, chocolate, anti-depressants or tranquilizers, gambling, pornography or any other addictions you may have.


HABITS
Habits I can treat with hypnosis include nail-biting, thumb-sucking, bedwetting, blushing, facial tics or unwanted gestures, teeth grinding, inside cheek chewing, compulsive hair pulling (trichotillomania), nervous cough, restless leg syndrome but just ask me if you have another unwanted habit.  I may be able to help.

WEIGHT LOSS
You've tried every diet, lost weight and put it back on again, if not more.  That is because diets do not work.  You need to reprogramme the way your mind feels about food and why you eat.  Rather than thinking about losing weight (I prefer "dropping weight") and focussing on the pounds, I help you to see yourself at your target weight and experience living as this new person.  As I am qualified in Diet and Nutrition, I can give some advice in this area but I shall mainly allow your mind to create the new you.

"A man's health can be judged by which he takes two at a time - pills or stairs."
~Joan Welsh ~

CONFIDENCE
Most problems require a boost of confidence and self-belief but people visit for specific help with:

- public speaking

"I just want to let you know that the presentation to the Government Minister went really well and I actually enjoyed it." - G.P., 

- blushing
- sports performance (eg golf, tennis)

"Yipps set in after 30 years of playing golf but your technique sorted out the problem quickly." - J.S. (short-range golf problem)

- nail biting
- exam/driving test nerves
- pre-wedding nerves
- sales performance
- stage fright etc.

This is more than just visualization and positive affirmations.  NLP can free you from negative self-beliefs from the past or damaging past experiences - often in just one or two sessions.

"My mind is so in tune with this and I know it is the way to go… no matter what this means! I feel extremely comfortable with you and like I know you all my life. It is so strange and so comforting at the same time. It is not very often that one has that kind of touch. It does help and in a different life, I would have wanted to be friends with you. I do realize that now and under these circumstances it is not possible. However, no matter how, you have touched my life in a very big way and I am grateful although I cannot see the direct outcome yet. I simply know my life won’t be any longer the same way it is now and that is already something." - S.S.,
