Wednesday 14th March is National No Smoking Day, which this year holds a special significance to many smokers faced with the reality of a total ban on smoking in public places coming later this year.

The Smoking in the Workplace Ban, which has already been implemented in Ireland, Scotland and Wales, comes into force in England on 1st July 2007. From that date all offices, factories, shops, pubs, bars, restaurants, clubs, public transport and work vehicles that are used by more than one person will be required to be smoke free by Law.

The good news is, if you really want to stop smoking, hypnotherapy could make it up to five times easier for you to quit!

Research comparing many different studies of hypnotherapy has shown that on average, smokers are over five times more likely to break the habit with hypnosis than by willpower alone. Hypnotherapy in general is also proven to be more than twice as effective compared with nicotine gum.

To mark National No Smoking Day, and help those smokers who want to beat the ban and quit before July, we are launching our new ‘5 Top Tips to Quit Smoking‘ programme which can help you quit all by yourself! Why are we doing this? Because although we are specialists in helping people to stop smoking, there are only so many people we can physically see in a day, and many smokers who are just too far away to come see us.

For those who prefer one-to-one help, find out how we could help you stop smoking in just 2 hours. Or if you are out of our area – why not visit your local ASDA supermarket on National No Smoking Day, as Hypnotherapists registered by the National Council for Hypnotherapy (NCH) will be on hand in most stores to help and advise you.

As NCH registered Hypnotherapists, we will be at ASDA Gravesend from 10am to 6pm on Wednesday 14th March (National No Smoking Day), so if you have any questions on how we can help you to be ‘smoke free’ or ‘get unhooked’, please feel free to come down and see us.
