On Day 7, I still have not had any cravings! The first day, every time I went outside, I kept thinking, "Oh, this is a perfect time to grab a smoke!" but that was mostly just habit I think. I have had no cravings. I was a little tired for a couple of days, but that happened when I tried other methods of quitting, too. I think it was just my body getting used to not having the stimulants in my system.

I thought it would be sooooo hard not to smoke at work, but it really does not bother me very much. Cigarette smoke smells different to mje now, and I know this is directly because of the hypnotic suggestion I was given regarding not inhaling poinsionous gasses.

The session was 2 hours long. The first part was just an introduction to hypnosis, told how it works, gave some suggestions for a better experience, etc. The second part was the hypnosis itself. I remember most of it. Many of the suggestions were very simple, but powerful. For example, he emphasised that cigarette smole is poisin gas, and told us that we would now be appalled at the thought of inhaling poisin gas. ANd so on. He told us that we would now be in touch with our naturlal instincts concering air and breathing, that we would now gain a small but real pleasure from breathing clean fresh air, etc.

He also gave us some home reinfircemetn instructions and a few things to read.

The first session is $98, if at any time I need a second session, the reinforcement will be $68.
