Addiction is hard wired into us as a survival tool that would get us coming back to food source and to reproduce even. Those never stopped being used actually, we might think we no longer are led by these impulses but we actually see their impact still. People who have unhealthy relationships with food are an example, dependence to pornography or sex is another. When we think addictions we usually think of drugs, cigarettes or alcohol but in fact the basic and animal addictions are sex and food.

But how can we get rid of an addiction?

Well addictions never go away!

It is the amount of control we have over it that changes. To put this in to perspective, this is the reason that rehabilitated alcoholics can never drink socially. All that can be done really is to get over the cravings and habituate mind and body to life without. Now how can you know you are addicted to something?

Here are a few questions to ask yourself if you think you might be addicted to drugs, medication, stimulants, alcohol, coffee, cell phones, internet and texting even. (Apply this to any activity or product you might be surprised)

These simply help you figure things out; saying no to all of those does not mean that you don't have an addiction simply that no test is perfect and every situation of addictive behaviour can be different. But here they are and I suggest you answer them with a friend that knows you well enough to also know the answers and that is honest enough to tell you if you are in denial. Make sure the friend is not himself addicted to the same things and in also in denial! Of course that would be the worst case scenario but I'd rather have my bases covered! Here are the questions:

• Do you need more than you use to?

• Do you think about it at times you would normally not, like when doing something else?

• Do you continue to use despite knowing impact of your life?

• Do you feel uneasy or do you have any additional symptoms such as Nausea, Anxiety, Trembling, Sweating, insomnia when going without?

• Do you get irritable and moody when you go without?

Think about it, really think about it now, answering yes to even one can mean a lot!

Hypnosis works by helping you control emotional and physical cravings while starting to change the behaviour. It allows you to reach your goals and "lock" the new habit into place. It could be to have a better relationship with food, stop repetitive behaviours like nail biting or hair pulling, or perhaps problems with substance abuse like drugs, cigarettes and alcohol. The thing of the matter is that what you need is to want, hard enough to fight the addiction without having to fight yourself on top of it!

We help you, we don't make you do anything with hypnosis as this is not where the power of hypnosis rests but rather it increases what positive desires are already there. You have to be honest about wanting! We can help you enjoy freedom from addictive behaviours through one on one sessions, CD Sets or downloadable mp3 sessions to start the process from home.
