You know those ads I see in the flyers for like $50 at a local hotel near you...
Do they really work?

Not always. I have tried hypnosis to quit smoking but it didnt work since I think, the urge is stronger in the subconscious mind than inducing hypnosis. I am an alternative medicine healer, and practice hypnotherapy, but if there is a strong mental block, you just cannot do anything to quit smoking, drinking, lose weight, or any addictions.
Once you really have your mind set to quit, then perhaps hypnosis works along with your psychology, to quit any vices.

My wife and I saw the "Mad Russian" in Boston several years ago and both successfully quit smoking cold turkey at the same time. Never even fought!
It's not hypnosis, but something like a manipulation of your aura or something, even he couldn't explain exactly what he did. The difference that worked for me was that, after the session, I wasn't a smoker anymore so, even with the infrequent urges, I just told myself that I didn't smoke and it worked. With prior attempts, I always had the mindset that I was a smoker who was trying to quit. Sounds like splitting hairs, but it's the best way to describe it.
Good luck!

Well, the only thing that ever worked for me was getting pregnant. It made me sick to even think about a cigarette, but then again, you see people who are pregnant and still smoke. So, everyone is different. The mind is a very powerful thing... if you want to quit bad enough, all you have to do is tell yourself you don't smoke and believe it. I know plenty who it has worked for. God bless and have fun!

In a work YES! Smoking is easier. You dont have to smoke. weight loss is a bit harder you have to eat. it is a mater of degrees.
one of the people who answered your question "saw the mad Russian" this man uses techniques straight out of the Pavlov institute(Russia). Powerful stuff. If you have a 100+ IQ it is as close to guaranteed as it gets.

Well, after spending two hundred dollars with a state certified hypnotherapist, I still smoke, so I can't recommend it.
