It costs us so much, both in terms of money and health. And yet for many it feels really hard to quit smoking without some sort of help.

This was the position Ben found himself in – he’d tried many times to quit, always unsuccessfully – sure, he’d stop for 2 or 3 days, but he would be back smoking again.

Like many, Ben had heard of the success people have turning to hypnosis for quitting smoking, and as Ben and I have known each other for a few years, he confided that it was time to quit properly and could I help him.

So that’s what we did.

He recorded a very enthusiastic video about how he was finding life without smoking over a month later – already 20 times longer than he’d been able to go without cigarettes before.

He was particularly happy to not be using gum or patches or vaping, but rather to have completely quit smoking entirely. Even when he was around others who were smoking (which can be particularly challenging for the newly quit ex-smoker!).

If that’s the kind of success you are looking for when you quit smoking, let’s chat!

(Interesting point to note, in the years since I helped Ben quit, I’ve improved the entire process and made it even more powerful with even deeper change, to help you out regardless of your level of smoking, provided you are committed to quitting).

In His Own Words

“Hello, my name’s Ben Shorter, and this is a testimonial for the awesome Keith Blakemore-Noble, so I went to Keith recently for hypnotherapy to give up smoking. It was finally time – I tried things before my heart wasn’t in it, but this time I was really ready for it. I don’t know the best thing to do.

Every time I’ve tried to give up smoking in the past, it was one to three days maximum. That was one of those are always had a roll up hanging out of my mouth between 10 and 30 day. Any situation on the phone walking to the bus stop cooking. I always found an excuse to smoke.

It’s now been four and a half weeks smoke free, no nicotine replacement, no vaping, no gum, no patches, no willpower even, I just don’t have the urge to smoke.

I can still hang out with my friends outside a pub with them smoking and not feel inclined to have one is madness. No one expected it to happen because I was the worst. I was always the one smoking.

It’s change everyone’s perception of me. It’s making me feel so much better in my house. And despite trying these things that never worked for me before I went to Keith, I was like, I want us to solve this. And it’s only taken him 45 minutes to completely change my associations

If you want to give up smoking him, you need to speak to Keith Blakemore-Noble. He is an absolute wizard at this stuff. Thank you so much, Keith.”
