Hypnotists are increasingly called upon to help people quit smoking and help clients control their weight.
Weight Loss and Smoking Cessation pay the RENT for most Hypnotists . Expertise in these two
common areas will produce Referrals for many other issues ,once the practitioner is perceived
as either an expert or simply a competent professional, because clients regularly report good results
with Weight Loss and Smoking Cessation.

These practical advanced techniques and approaches are not theoretical,but have been developed
over 13 years in both group and individual sessions by William Mitchell, founder of the successful
Personal Motivation Hypnosis Clinics where hundreds of clients each year Stop Smoking or
lose 10- 100 pounds of fat. This course provides scripts, techniques and advanced material in two manuals .
Utilization and Motivational Interviewing are discussed as essential to successful interventions.
Motivational Techniques combined with specific Hypnosis techniques and scripts for Weight Control and
Smoking Cessation will be presented and demonstrated with live sessions on volunteers.

The physical realities of weight control are discussed including caloric intake required to initially gain weight,
realistic reduction based on body weight and level of exercise, causes of weight gain, lifestyle education for clients,
and information on medications and medical conditions that can hinder progress and what to do in these situations.
We will discuss three clinical issues that arise in treating a weight loss client: dropping out of treatment, emotional
disturbances during dieting, and regaining weight. Current research on effective and safe weight reduction and
weight control is introduced and discussed.

Any intervention with a smoker must address the three components of habit: conditioned response,
emotional associations, and physical dependence. Several stop smoking strategies are introduced and
discussed, including gradual withdrawal and 'cold turkey' with the use of hypnosis. Also discussed is how to
determine which techniques will best serve individual clients specific needs and how to help
potentially successful clients understand the reasons and advantages of multiple sessions designed to
facilitate long-term change .
