Stop Drinking and Take Back Control of Your Life

If you’ve been wondering whether you’re drinking too much — or if you’ve been trying to stop but can’t seem to stay in control — you’re not alone. Drinking habits often develop slowly over time, and before you realize it, you’re drinking more often or more heavily than you intended.

Here are a few questions to consider:

Do you think about drinking during the day and look forward to that first glass the moment you get home?
Do you regularly drink more than you planned?
Have you ever drunk to the point of not remembering what happened (blackouts)?
Is alcohol affecting your sleep, mood, energy, relationships, or responsibilities?
Do you wish you could cut back or stop — but feel like you’ve lost control of the habit?

If you answered “yes” to any of these, hypnosis can help you take back control in a calm, supportive, and effective way.

Many clients experience real change even after their first session.

How Drinking Patterns Slowly Take Over

For many people, drinking begins as something harmless:

A glass of wine to unwind
A drink with coworkers
Weekend relaxation
A break from stress

But over time, that harmless habit can turn into something more:

Drinking becomes a daily routine
One or two glasses turn into several
Nights become blurry or forgotten
Stress and emotions trigger the urge
It becomes harder to stop once you start
Mornings begin with guilt, regret, or exhaustion

This doesn’t mean you’ve “failed.”
It means a pattern has taken root — and that’s where hypnosis is incredibly powerful.

How Hypnosis Helps You Stop Drinking or Gain Control

Hypnosis works at the subconscious level, where automatic habits and emotional responses live.

Through hypnosis, you can:

Reduce or eliminate cravings
Change the emotional triggers behind drinking
Build healthier coping strategies
Slow down impulses and regain control
Release the urge to “escape” or numb out
Strengthen confidence and self-trust
Create a new identity that doesn’t revolve around alcohol

Most people describe the shift as:

“Something feels different.

I don’t want it the same way anymore.”

What to Expect in a Session

Your session is private, supportive, and completely tailored to your needs.
You remain fully aware and in control throughout the entire process.

A session may include:

Guided relaxation
Identifying emotional patterns that fuel drinking
Releasing stress responses linked to alcohol
Subconscious suggestions for control and clarity
Confidence-building techniques
Practical tools to use between sessions

By the end, most clients feel calmer, clearer, and relieved that change finally feels possible.

A Client’s Experience

“Willow, when I came to you I was hopeless that my habit of binge drinking, resulting in blackouts, was mine to have for the rest of my life. I had tried many times and ways to stop but nothing worked. Now after hypnosis I am free from this thought and lifestyle. I no longer feel the need or desire to escape…”

You Can Stop Smoking Using Hypnosis

Stop smoking using hypnosis may seem like your last choice. You may have tried to stop on your own many times in the past – you may have even been successful for a while. But then something happens. Your job, the kids, money, health – they all create STRESS at one time or another. When the stress comes, you look for something that you thought was relaxing, comforting, soothing. You reach for – A CIGARETTE! And then you have another, and another, and another and you’re back into that vicious cycle.

So you try it again on your own; or you try the patch, or gum, or even the E-Cigarettes. All the flavor, the chemicals, but no smoke. Wow! But you still haven’t stopped.

Then somebody suggests hypnosis to stop smoking. You might even know someone who stopped smoking with hypnosis. You’re skeptical. You’ve never been hypnotized and you certainly don’t want to have someone else in control of you and your mind! You do some research on the internet to learn more about hypnosis and discover that in hypnosis you are always in control! Nobody can make you do anything you don’t want to do! And they won’t try and make you quack like a duck! So you make the phone (or in some cases, you have your wife, husband, girlfriend, boyfriend or family member make the call for you). Sounds easy enough. You make the appointment.

During the appointment you are able to talk about all the stresses in your life that may be a barrier to your success in stop smoking with hypnosis. You talk about your triggers – when you smoke, where you smoke, why your smoke. You talk about the reasons you want to stop smoking with hypnosis now. And you find out all about hypnosis and how it works and why it works. Wow! So far it’s really easy and you learn a lot. And you feel comfortable now with the processes.

After the hypnosis session you find that you don’t want a cigarette – just yet. You’ll wait until you get home. But the desire isn’t there yet. So you decide you’ll wait a little longer before having a cigarette. But later on, you still don’t want one. And you may even say to yourself, “This is so weird!” You wait, and wait. You may have a little discomfort as your body begins to detox and let go of all the poisons and chemicals that you’ve been inhaling. You drink plenty of water and water seems to have a calming and satisfying feeling for you.

When you return for your follow-up appointment, preferably one – three days after your initial appointment, you’re feeling hopeful, more peaceful and calm than you’ve felt in a long time. And you’re ready to continue to make sure that you remain a non-smoker forever!

Let go of the fear and give yourself the gift of health and freedom from cigarettes! You won’t regret it.

As one client wrote: “I have now been 4 weeks totally smoke & soda free, with absolutely no chance of going back. I have put myself to the test by visiting people that smoke. It didn’t tempt me at all. I feel so energetic and have an overwhelming desire to continue doing great things for myself.”

Hypnosis and New Year’s Resolutions

New Year’s Day is always the time for setting goals, making resolutions, and deciding to change your life. We all start out on January first with the highest of expectations, and somewhere down the road, months later, we’ve forgotten and abandoned those high ideals. Weight loss, exercise, diet, and life-style changes all are great goals in the beginning. Why not help yourself achieve those goals this year through a simple, yet powerful method – hypnosis. Give it a try. Call me at (520) 760-8456 and let’s talk about how we can make 2013 your best year yet!
