Smoking Cessation Program
Welcome to the Mindful InnerChange Smoking Cessation Program where we can help you change your thoughts and behaviors as well as resolve emotional connections, so you stop smoking. The program thoughtfully put together has a standard in mind but is flexible to extend as needed for each client. Becoming a non-smoker requires the mind to think as such and for the body to behave accordingly. Habits have a deep emotional attachment and it is different for everyone, which is why the program allows for those to be discovered and addressed. Our program approaches this from a few directions which complement one another beautifully to encourage a lasting life change.
The program standard is 10 weeks in duration to include:
- Hypnotherapy & EFT – 6 sessions
- Guided Meditation – 1 take home recording (more if needed)
- Cognitive/Behavioral Modification Homework
- Energy Balancing – Pranayama/QiGong/Yoga Recommendation
- Other Homework as applicable
Your commitment and desire to quit smoking is key to your success. Some people quit smoking in 1 session, but it is not common, while others take 10 sessions. The program is structured around the average of 6 which studies have shown a 93% effectiveness rate. If you quit smoking in less, the other sessions will continue to address the underlying linkage to the habit to strengthen your new identity as a non-smoker. We are here to graciously offer our services so you can live your best life.

Information, Expectations, EFT Benefits, & Hypnotherapy Benefits
- Nicotine addiction is deeply rooted in the subconscious mind. Stress, mealtime, driving, drinking alcohol (and the list goes on) all subconsciously trigger thoughts that cause cigarette craving
- Nicotine Replacement Therapy (aka: the patch) only replaces the tool but does not rewire the mind
- You will experience withdrawals such as: Nausea, irritability, aches and pains, sore throat, headache, mental sluggishness
- We recommend the custom smoker package from Herbs from the Heart to minimize this discomfort and support the healing process
- Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) helps to address the emotions tied to the addiction
- Clients can feel immediate relief
- The first session gives encouragement to continue
- You do not need to “believe” in EFT for it to work
- Hypnotherapy helps “shut off” the voice in your head
- Hypnotherapy reframes subconscious thoughts to think negatively about smoking and to create a healthy response to the triggers
- Hypnotherapy will not “make you” quit smoking
- Hypnotherapy is not the best option if:
- You feel like you should quit, but really would rather not
- You aren’t ready to quit
- You want to quit for someone else
