Pregnancy and smoking!

Has pregnancy made you even more concerned about cigarette smoking and its effects on your unborn baby? No doubt, you have heard about the many health risks associated with smoking. Yes, we all know more these days about the effects of cigarette smoking on pregnancy, for instance you probably know that cigarette smoke contains around 2000 harmful substances. Some of the most harmful and toxic for a pregnant mum and her baby are probably nicotine, carbon monoxide and cyanide. Nevertheless, you are still finding it difficult to give up and quit smoking. You are not alone...

Why is it difficult to Stop Smoking?

To permanently quit smoking can sometimes seem impossible; many people stop smoking only to find that they take it up again. Smoking is a habit that is difficult to overcome by willpower alone. There are many substances and methods available in the marketplace, although some may not be safe or recommended during pregnancy.

Looking for a natural alternative to help you Quit Smoking?

Now that you are pregnant, for your own health and wellbeing and the health of your baby, you are inclined to look for a natural and drug-free alternative to help you quit smoking permanently. So, is there such an alternative available?

Quit Smoking and Hypnosis

The health benefits for stopping smoking are immense; this is particularly true for pregnant mums. Women need support and healthy alternatives to help them permanently stop smoking. Hypnosis has been found to be a proven, safe and easy method to quit smoking during pregnancy.

Smoking, just like all habits, is a repetitive 'program' that our mind is running. Hypnosis can help change the inner 'program', thereby helping the external results to change. The mind works almost identically to a computer; it continues to run the same programs until they are changed. While this inner 'smoking program' continues to run, you will continue to smoke. Hypnosis is a very effective tool that can help you go to the source of the habit, the subconscious-mind, to change the inner habit. Hypnosis can help you quit smoking. The only way of making sure the habit is gone for good is to make those internal changes first. Many women have found it extremely beneficial to stop smoking during their pregnancy with the help of our stop smoking CD. Listening to the hypnosis CD on daily basis helped others quit easily.

Hypnosis is a safe and easy way to access and change the bad habit and help you quit smoking for good, for further information on Hypnosis see our separate page.
