Seattle Area Clinical Neuro-Linguistic Hypnotherapist & Licensed Trainer of NLP ™ shares the truth about hypnosis, NLP and the unconscious mind to create powerful, positive, and lasting life changes. Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP
Beneath the pallor of a ghastly moon,
Echoes a tale of a soul’s grim fortune.
The wretched vice of smoking, a curse,
In our hearts, dread and fear it does immerse.
Darkened tendrils of its toxic mirth,
Seizing lives, stealing joy from Earth.
Innocent lungs, pure and light,
Now held captive in suffocating night.
Creeping silently, its damage unseen,
A lurking shadow, cruel and mean.
Its deceptive guise of comfort and calm,
Hides a grim reaper beneath its charm.
But lo! Within the gloom, a hopeful ray,
A means to chase the somber clouds away.
In the form of trance, a guide to cessation,
Hypnosis shines, offering salvation.
With words gentle as a lullaby’s verse,
The hypnotic script undoes the curse.
Broken, the chains of the toxic plight,
Freed, the soul from the endless night.
In the heart of dread, blooms a joyous tale,
Of a lost soul’s journey from a stormy gale.
The vice discarded, the spirit unbroken,
In hypnosis, the spell to quit smoking spoken.
So here ends our tale, from dread to elation,
A testament to the power of imagination.
For in the mind’s depth, a truth does stir,
Freedom from fear is what we prefer.
Put cigarettes in the garbage, where they belong. We can help! Become a #nonsmoker with Mindworks #Hypnosis.https://www.mindworkshypnosis.net#quitsmoking#stopsmoking#NLP
In a puff of smoke, the habit arose,
A chain unbroken, or so it goes,
But with hypnosis, a secret key,
To break the spell and set you free.
A gentle trance, the mind at play,
Old patterns vanish, swept away,
Fresh air to breathe, lungs rejoice,
A newfound freedom, a healthy choice.
No more the ash, the smoke, the haze,
In vibrant health, you’ll spend your days,
Through hypnosis, the habit’s tamed,
A smoke-free life, forever gained.

“I was a pack a day smoker for almost 40 years. I never thought the day would come I would give up the nasty habit. I saw Connie for 3 sessions and with each one the idea of smoking diminished to the point I have no desire to light up again. Her techniques might seem a little quirky at first but they do serve a purpose and produced a positive result with each session. In all honesty, it’s the best money I ever spent. I’m no longer a smoker. I no longer smell like an ash tray and my health is in recovery. Thank you Connie, you’re awesome!!!” – Richard Dewayne, Lake Stevens, WA.

My office cabinet is filled with discarded packages of cigarettes from client after client. They quit smoking effective immediately to the point that they hand me their cigarettes (and chewing tobacco) right there during a session and announce: “I’m done!” Sometimes they hand them to me. Sometimes they want to crush them and throw them into my garbage can. It’s all good. One client wanted to and DID run over them with her vehicle in the parking lot.
I keep these discarded packages of cigarettes of all brands around for testing purposes, to verify that the person in front of me is done smoking…that ALL temptation or desire to smoke is gone.
Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP can help! Safe, effective, proven way to quit smoking fast. No side effects, no drugs, no struggle. Just the power of your own mind activated to help you achieve your healthy goals. Imagine your own voice proudly saying: ‘I’m a nonsmoker now.”
Happy 2 weeks ’til summer! Our area (Greater Seattle) is absolutely one of the most beautiful on the planet, especially this time of year. Hope you’re getting out and about and enjoying the sunshine. I’m keeping busy with client work and teaching, Michael and I just finished up another Licensed Master Practitioner of NLP® certification training. Yay, new experts out and about to make positive change in the world.
Speaking of change, I’ve written a new article published on Self-Growth.com and thought I’d share it with you all as well. It’s about our endless fascination with change–how to make things happen for clients such that they get to live life the way they want. “Never In A Million Years.”
It’s a push-me, pull-you approach to change. Feeling so good you are moved in positive directions, combined with a “Never” attached to unwanted habits to the point that they shut off.
“…Dr. Richard Bandler, the co-creator of NLP has said: “Good feelings, good decisions. Bad feelings, bad decisions.” I’ve changed it up somewhat. “Good feelings, good decisions. Bad feelings, good decisions.” I want a client to feel so good in the moment (the various decision points) that the unwanted behavior never triggers. There’s no urge to do it, and it doesn’t even enter their thinking. And, I want to attach such negativity to the habit itself that it becomes an automatic “no.” “Never in a million years.””
All the Best,
Connie

She threw them away! And then ran over them with her car!
Update to the story below: I got an email from my client yesterday: “I haven’t smoked at all since our last session! Yay!” – L.F., Seattle, WA
Hi, Seattle Hypnosis Friends!
Why did I find my office parking lot littered with a pack of squished cigarettes the other day? I know why! Now, I’m not accusing my client of being a litterbug, BUT…I found these on the ground of the parking lot after our hypnosis and NLP, Neuro-Linguistic Programming work on quit smoking.
They were discarded, and run over by a car. Smooshed flat! Pretty funny, actually. Looks to be run over more than one time. Another cigarette paper was peeled and the tobacco shredded in a little pile on the ground. Like, she was examining it, and came to the conclusion: “No.” And then she ran over them! 🙂
Someone threw them away. And I know for a fact that this was the brand of cigarettes, my client USED to smoke. (She doesn’t smoke anymore!) American Spirit. And I found them when I was leaving the office the same afternoon I worked with her.
Mere coincidence? I think not.
All it takes is a flip of the mind to come down on the side of “I’m done with that!” And smoking is ended. It really can be that quick and easy, with the right mind tools. The Patch is not the right tool. Nicotine gum is not the right tool. Vaping is not the right tool. The right tool is mindset–I’m DONE. And that mindset is quickly achieved via skilled and creative custom hypnotherapy and NLP services.
Are you ready to quit smoking? I can help. I do help. Learn more about my private services any time here: http://www.mindworkshypnosis.net
I love it when I hear from my clients about their happy success through the work I do. As I tell them from the get-go, I want their successful changes for them as much as they want it for themselves, and we go for it! If they WIN, I WIN. (And I like winning.) Here’s another healthy winner, a newly minted non-smoker after Neuro-Linguistic Hypnotherapy:
“Hi Connie, I have quit smoking, I quit on February 22nd. Haven’t cheated at all and have no desire to restart. I was very surprised to finally wake up that last day and fully quit. The last pack I had took like 4 days to go thru. When the pack was empty, I mentally turned a corner and said to myself I am now a non-smoker. I honestly haven’t looked back or had any remorse or regret. I feel a lot better physically, mentally and spiritually. I find myself having pride in myself for quitting and its led to greater happiness thus far.
Anyway, thank you again for your helping me thru this process and getting to the point where I can release this crutch. Your sessions helped me have a stronger mindset and helped me create more of a creative visual that matched my desire to quit. I will refer your service to anybody I know looking to make changes in their life. Thank you for your services.” — Dave B., Seattle, WA.
There are so many reasons to quit smoking! If you’d like to improve the quality and duration of your life, we can help. Call and learn more. We do offer a free in office consultation.
I’m on a roll, several great nonsmoking success reports from clients this week. Yesterday, a “one and done” email testimonial arrived in my box. Today, a live commentary from another gentleman.
Honestly, with most clients it takes a few sessions of NLP and hypnosis for their brain to “click” and shut off smoking forever. Then, there are people like Darek. Amazing, powerful minds who can create change instantly. Darek quit smoking in one session of Neuro-Linguistic Hypnotherapy.
Here are his comments on how easy he found the process.
The world presents that smoking is an addiction worse than heroin. Ridiculous! What if it wasn’t hard at all to quit? What if that’s simply “fake news” based on unskilled and unsuccessful methods to quit favored by medical professionals? Pushing quit smoking drugs that cause suicidal tendencies! Wow. Why go there? It’s so not necessary.
Hypnosis is the number one successful tool to quit smoking. And, in skilled hands, it’s amazing. And natural. And no side effects, except for feeling great and having a healthier, longer life. Find out more: http://www.mindworkshypnosis.net.
I’m happy to help! I love my happy client reports, and I’d like to add you to the party.
I love it. One and done. This happy and successful client, Jon Lawton, from Seattle, quit smoking in one session of my NLP Neuro Linguistic Programming and hypnotherapy. His last cigarette was last spring, and it’s been months now smoke free.
I wrote and asked him how he’s doing, re: the smoking cessation. Here’s what Jon told me:
“Hi, Connie. Thanks so much. I’m so happy to say that my last cigarette was right before our first session. Thanks to you!! Yes, I want to work on more things. I will get a hold of you and we can continue moving forward. Thanks again for Awesome service!!” — Jon Lawton, Seattle, WA.
Yes, hypnosis done right really works. Jon knows! He changed his mind and changed his habits. And the changes stick! What habits would you like to stop? Or begin? Yes, you can.
Healthy and happy go hand in hand. Jon is happy! I’m happy for Jon getting healthy. Quality of life improves when you quit smoking. And quantity of life as well. What’s that worth? Priceless!
I love my good feedback. As I tell my hypnosis and NLP clients, when they win, I win. And, in my office and in my school, we are very much in it to win it. Some hypnotists go into this type of work thinking it’s an easy buck. (It’s not.) I do this work because I love it. It’s my art! It’s stimulating, challenging, and oh so rewarding when my clients get their successful outcomes.
Brian Jacob, of Seattle, Washington got his results. He quit smoking in one session of Neuro Linguistic Programming and hypnotherapy at Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP. After 15 years of smoking a pack of cigarettes a day, he has quit.
He wrote me a 5-star review on third party business review sites Google and YELP. I love his success and, with his permission, I’m sharing his words:
“I have been smoking one pack a day for the past 15 years. I tried to quit so many times but it never worked. There was always something that pushed me right back to it. One session with Connie… That’s right… One session!… And I was smoke free! I still don’t know how she did it, but now every time I think about cigarettes I am like : “Oh no!”.
I left my cigarettes and my lighter at her office when I left and never had to buy cigarettes since then.
Some advice if you want to quit smoking and are considering using Connie’s Services: Do not think of hypnosis based on what you’ve seen on TV. It is not a joke. Just be super open and play Connie’s game. I feel like the fact I was so open to her and treated hypnosis so seriously truly helped Connie to do the right work with me right away.
Hypnosis made me demonize cigarettes, yes. But the nicotine craving was still there for a couple of weeks. I used patches and I was done after 3 weeks of using them less and less every day. I didn’t need anything after that… I was cured.
Let’s be honest, being hypnotized is kind of a bucket list item. There is something fascinating about it. If it does not work for you (Which I truly doubt), at least you can say: I did it!
Anyway, let Connie guide you, she is FANTASTIC and I am so grateful I get to work with her. Smoking sucks!”
As I told Jacob, HE made this happen. Anyone can create any desired outcome for themselves. WITH the right tools skillfully and artfully used. I’m a Licensed Trainer of NLP®. NLP is what he calls “Connie’s game.” It is fun. And it’s a game that Jacob won. Goodbye to cigarettes and smoking, and hello to a healthier (and longer) life.
What’s it worth to you to successfully take control of your life and habits? Habits don’t control us unless we allow them to. We can control them, end habits, create new habits. If you want fast change, do what works. Skilled, ethical hypnotherapy and NLP. Call me, and I’m happy to meet with you and explain this work. It’s different. And powerful.
Here’s a story to share with you, all about the hypnotic power of a half-eaten rotten banana.
I was working with a Seattle man the other day on quitting smoking. One of the elements of this work is our search for a useful feeling called “hell, no!” This gentleman, his “Hell, no!” was the thought of eating a rotten banana–he declared it the worst disgust feeling he could conjure. Coincidence, and propinquity! I had a half eaten well-past-its-prime squishy black banana in my trash can at the office at that very moment. I fished it out and we gave him several good whiffs, while I used my hypnotic tool kit to set that disgust equal to smoking. He’s done with cigarettes. Cravings are dead.
Long live the rotten banana! And long live the happy and healthy nonsmoker.
At the same time, and on the flip side of the coin, we also customized some powerful, good Designer Feelings™ in place of smoking, and attached those to undo the habit. Wonderful feelings that encourage healthy: calm, contentment, in control, and so on. Just as what generates disgust is unique person to person, so, too are the good feelings which can kick smoking desire to the curb. We explore and generate both in our Greater Seattle hypnotherapy center.
There’s a science and methodology to Neuro Linguistic hypnotherapy blended with fun and creativity, and, guess what? It works! For quitting smoking, as well as a variety of other positive changes. Are you ready to quit smoking? Let’s do it! Call me and let’s get started.
“Hi, Connie, I just wanted to share news with you that it is almost a month since I smoked my last one. I feel so clean, energized, refined and all good stuff I dreamed of. Thank you once again!” –John W., Bellevue, WA
Hypnosis works! When done right by a skilled, creative hypnosis professional. The proof is in the pudding. Check out all the empowered people who decided to quit smoking once and for all, and found the power of mind to do it with Mindworks Hypnosis and NLP!
With the BC wildfires burning and blowing haze and smoke into our world here in the Seattle area, the LAST thing you need to be doing is adding your own smoke to the mix.
It’s hard enough to breathe out there.
Do you want change? Are you ready to take control of the smoking habit and turn it off? You can. What people really don’t understand is how powerful they are, on the UN-conscious level. Yes, you can stop smoking.
I have a new vehicle. And one of the things I’ve been enjoying about it (besides the “new car” smell), is how clean the windshield is and how clearly I can see while I’m driving. My old vehicle had rock chip repairs right in my line of sight and it was annoying. However, every time I drove this past week or so, there were thousands of particles of smoke, ash, haze, landing on my windshield and attaching to my windshield. So it’s hard to see. The wipers don’t remove the particles. Annoying times a thousand. It’s like I need a car wash every day.
I was thinking. That’s like your lungs. Each and every time you smoke you’re depositing gunk and junk in there. And it sticks around. Not good.
Here’s the bottom line. Your thinking mind isn’t enough to get the job done, if you’re like most people. Your conscious mind is thinking, analysis, logic, reason. I KNOW you have reasons to quit smoking. If you haven’t (yet), that’s because your conscious mind isn’t strong enough to enforce change. Your UN-conscious can! This is the part of the mind we communicate with in hypnosis and NLP. This part of your mind is the enforcer. The feeling part of your mind. Emotion, intuition, creativity. The good stuff! If you don’t feel like smoking, you won’t. Your creative mind will find something more healthy and useful to do, and put it in the places where smoking habit was. The UN-conscious drivers of behavior and habit are removed. And you are suddenly able to do the things you’ve been consciously wanting to do. Or not do.
It’s really that easy. All you need to do is get your UN-conscious mind on board with your quit smoking project. And that’s what I help you do. Call me and I’ll be happy to meet with you and explain in detail what we do at Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP. Lots of cool things. NLP is a conversational, open-eyed interactive hypnosis, that is fun and fascinating. It’s been called “hypnosis on steroids.” When you’re ready to go for it, so am I.
Sometimes success is so amazing that it leaves a person speechless. That has happened to Sri K., of Seattle, WA.
He was a client of mine this summer, and a success story. He’s a newly minted NON-smoker!
He left a review of Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP services recently on my google business page. No words. Just a 5-star rating. The best. Sri was speechless. That can happen!
He had been a smoker for exactly 20 years. He had tried to quit many times, and once he even stopped for a few weeks. But he came back to smoking. Until he tried hypnosis & NLP, and found success.
One and done! One session, and we worked it, and “it” worked. Goodbye, smoking! The decades-long smoking habit was kaput, dead, ended. He has not smoked since our session. I’d be happy, too.
He didn’t find the words for his google review, but he did give me a big hug and thank you in person. Good job, Sri. Continued success in life because you have a wonderful mind, and hypnosis is a tool to help you use it.
Anyone else? Would you like to focus your mind on a goal and become speechless with amazement and success? We can do that.
Call me at 425-564-8608 and we’ll set up a free in office consult. Learn more, and then let’s go for it!
All the Best,

Skilled NLP & Hypnosis Works to Kick the Butt out of Your Smoking Habit.
Hi, Hypnosis & NLP Readers!
Another happy hypnotherapy stop smoking story. I love to find these success gems in my email box. It makes my day. This Seattle area gentleman had a smoking habit that lasted over FIFTY YEARS! Wow. Happily, it’s over now.
Yay! Here’s what Robert B. of Camano Island has to say about our work.
“Hi Connie, Thank you so much for helping me with my 50+ year smoking habit. I have not had a cigarette in almost 6 weeks. Not only do I not have any desire to smoke, I know that I will never again allow cigarettes to control my life.
I tried to quit before. I know now that I was not ready to quit. I started smoking again and figured I was doomed to a life of smoke. When I came to see you just before Christmas of 2015, I was ready. And, as I mentioned, have not had a cigarette in 6 weeks. I can’t thank you enough.” Robert B. Camano Island, WA.
It just goes to show, when you’re ready for change, it happens. And it’s easy.
When you’re ready, let’s get started! I can help you quit smoking. And so many more behavioral changes. What is a longer life and a better quality of life worth to you?
In addition to our hypnotherapy and NLP clinical work in the Seattle area, we also teach through our private career school. And we’ve had some fabulous students over the years. Here is a post for “The Hypnotizer” by a guest blogger, my student, Alexa Ritter. Alexa is an amazing hypnotist and Licensed Master Practitioner of NLP®
Enjoy Alexa’s words of wisdom! All the Best, Connie
Hypnosis for New Year’s Resolutions by Alexa Ritter
How many times have you made a New Year’s Resolution? Maybe 25? 35? 45? 50? 70? And how many times did you stick to your resolution for the entire year? That number, if you are anything like the rest of us, is probably a lot lower.
This is because change can be difficult if one tries to do it through will-power alone. The main reason why anyone is celebrated or praised for adhering to a New Year’s resolution is because they are fighting an uphill battle and “surviving”.
As Albert Einstein once proclaimed, “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results.”
Wouldn’t it be nice if you could simply decide to make a change in your life, and then sit back and relax as your wish becomes your mind’s command?
With hypnosis, you don’t even have to try to achieve your goals! The struggle fades away, and the battle is won instantly. You can say “goodbye” to that miserable year-long process of attempting to create change, and say “hello” to becoming the boss of your own life!
If your boss told you to do something, you would do it without hesitation. Just like your boss is in charge of you at work, your unconscious mind is in charge of how your life works.
However, your unconscious mind isn’t just some old boss – it is you—the manifestation and accumulation of all that you can be, and all the power you have. It is limitless, expansive, creative, and omnipotent, regardless of any preconceived notion of what you can and cannot do.
The reason why you may have struggled to create change in the past is because your conscious, analytical mind stopped you. It came up with all sorts of excuses, limiting beliefs, bad ideas, and temptations. The funny thing is, that whatever change you wanted to make, was more than likely a conscious idea. And by eventually limiting and contradicting itself, your conscious mind really was unresourceful.
Unlike the conscious mind, the unconscious mind is extremely resourceful. It knows exactly how to make all the changes necessary in order for you to have what you desire. Permanently and easily!
During hypnosis, your unconscious mind is given suggestions, or instructions on what needs to be done. It then finds a healthful and appropriate way to take you there, and demands compliance from your conscious mind. Your conscious mind stops creating the problem, and fully accepts the effective course of action formulated by your unconscious.
So why not make this year different? Why not utilize your unconscious mind to make changes instantly, easily, and permanently?
Not only will you receive praise from your friends and family for sticking to your New Year’s resolutions, you will do it almost effortlessly, and your lasting success will become an inspiration to them. They will want to know your secret!
I’ve been doing this work, hypnosis and NLP, in the Seattle area for 9 years now. And what I absolutely sense is that hypnosis is becoming more recognized as something that WORKS. Something that helps. More and more people are considering it as a powerful and QUICK and lasting solution to the problems of everyday living. And so they should, because it is. 🙂
Michael and I have a saying, and you can quote us: “If the mind is involved in the activity, then hypnosis can help.” “If the mind is involved in the activity.” That’s everything! And because so many new people are becoming aware of hypnosis, I think it bears repeating: Here are just a few of the things that hypnosis can help with:
Anger Management Accelerated Power to Heal Better Relationships Claustrophobia Compulsive Thinking Confidence Building Confidence in Dating Confidence Driving Creative Problem Solving Dealing with Stress End Migraines Eat Healthy End Alcohol Abuse End Anxiety End Depression End Excessive Guilt End Negative Thinking Enhance Sex Enjoy Meeting New People Fear of Dentists Fear of Elevators Fear of Heights Fear of Loneliness Fear of Open Spaces Fear of Rejection Fear of Snakes Fear of Spiders Fear of Success Feel Good – Look Good Find Your Passion Gambling Addiction Get Over What Others Think Get Popular Social Comfort Golf Enhancement Goodbye Jealous Thoughts Goodbye Tension Headaches Healthy Eating Healthy Hypnosis for Life Style Changes High Blood Pressure Hypochondria Increase Assertiveness Increase Your Concentration Insecurity Interview with Confidence Job Loss Learning Languages Mental Toughness Midlife Crisis More Creativity More Motivated Motivation for Exercise Optimism Organization Skills Overcome Caffeine Addiction Overcome Fear of Failure Overcome Social Anxiety Pain Management Panic Attacks Perfect Sleeping Perform at Your Best Performance Nerves Personal Growth and Development Phobias and Fears Positive Self Belief Pregnancy Nausea Public Speaking Quit Smoking Recover from Divorce Relationship Insecurity Relax Socially Relief from Stress Say ‘No’ with Confidence Seasonal Affective Disorder Self Actualization Self Development Self Esteem Self Hypnosis Sexual Performance Anxiety Shopping Compulsion Shortcut to Meditation Shyness Speak in Public with Confidence Sports Hypnosis Start Conversations Stick-to-it-iveness Stop Bedwetting Stop Biting Your Fingernails Stop Blushing Stop Procrastinating Stop Self Sabotage Stop Writers Block Teeth Grinding Test Anxiety Weight Loss Hypnosis Workplace Motivation
If any of these positive changes are on your “to do,” list, come in to our offices and learn how we can help. Mindworkshypnosis & NLP, that’s Seattle’s best and highest skilled hypnotherapy.
Hi, Seattle Hypnosis Friends! I love this cover art from my newest “explaining hypnotherapy in a minute or less” video, which I share below:
It’s a beautiful illustration of the human mind. Everybody talks about “right brain” vs. “left brain.” Well, it’s all one mind and it works together wonderfully well blending the analytic with the creative. All of it is important, and it’s all useful to us in order to live a balanced, successful life.
However….
My passion lives in the colorful side. My work is art, and yes, I’m an artist. My palette is imagination, and emotion and sound and color, and vivid mind images created by words. I grew up in the Seattle area and my dad was an engineer at Boeing, and a brilliant man, very analytical. My mom was a professional artist and poet, and lived passion and creativity. I feel like I’ve inherited a mind that is the best of both of them. Yay, me! 🙂 It helps me in my work to help you!
Here is a brief, new video I created today explaining how hypnosis relaxes the thinking mind and stimulates the creative mind–in this instance, for smoking cessation. The same processes can be used to achieve anything! Because you have more power than you think, especially when you don’t think. As our genius buddy, Albert Einstein, liked to say: “You can’t solve a problem with the same thinking that created it.”
The absolute premise of this work is: “Yes, you can!” I help you access the creative problem-solving aspects of your brain to do it. We can get started any time, for quitting smoking or any other desired life changes. My office is in Bellevue, WA, and I service all of the Greater Seattle Metropolitan area.
Here’s to the amazing power of your mind!
All the Best,
Connie

I don’t do phone consults, if you would like to learn more before starting, I want to meet you! And I want you to meet me!
The truth: Hypnotists offering phone consults are lazy. It’s a weak and incomplete way to understand and evaluate a client’s needs. And I want you to understand in particular the work I do called NLP — it’s a super powerful technology that’s been watered down and misunderstood by other therapists. I want you to know what NLP Neuro Linguistic Programming REALLY is, and how I use it for your success.
Now, some clients are ready to roll. And that’s great, too. Let’s go!
Here’s a story to share with you, all about the hypnotic power of a half-eaten rotten banana.
I was working with a Seattle man the other day on quitting smoking. One of the elements of this work is our search for a useful feeling called “hell, no!” This gentleman, his “Hell, no!” was the thought of eating a rotten banana–he declared it the worst disgust feeling he could conjure. Coincidence, and propinquity! I had a half eaten well-past-its-prime squishy black banana in my trash can at the office at that very moment. I fished it out and we gave him several good whiffs, while I used my hypnotic tool kit to set that disgust equal to smoking. He’s done with cigarettes. Cravings are dead.
Long live the rotten banana! And long live the happy and healthy nonsmoker.
At the same time, and on the flip side of the coin, we also customized some powerful, good Designer Feelings™ in place of smoking, and attached those to undo the habit. Wonderful feelings that encourage healthy: calm, contentment, in control, and so on. Just as what generates disgust is unique person to person, so, too are the good feelings which can kick smoking desire to the curb. We explore and generate both in our Greater Seattle hypnotherapy center.
There’s a science and methodology to Neuro Linguistic hypnotherapy blended with fun and creativity, and, guess what? It works! For quitting smoking, as well as a variety of other positive changes. Are you ready to quit smoking? Let’s do it! Call me and let’s get started.
I love my email box. I get so much good news from current and previous clients. Here is a report from Victor Rodriguez, of Seattle, Washington, who had one Hypnosis – NLP session to quit smoking last month. That’s all it took. He quit! He says: “Smoking is behind me.”
Yay, Victor! 🙂 Here is Victor’s report:
“Hi Connie, Thanks for following up with me about my stop smoking session with you. Since that session I am happy to report that I no longer smoke. It hasn’t quite been a month yet but smoking is behind me… Since then I haven’t purchased any cigarettes. It has been a success. I will definitely direct anyone interested to your practice. Take care, Victor.” — Victor Rodriguez, Seattle, WA.
Now, some people quit smoking instantly. One Neuro Linguistic Hypnotherapy ™ session! And some people ease into the change called “happy and healthy permanent nonsmoker” over approximately three to four sessions. Everyone is different and every session is different, and personalized. We work it until you get what you want — to be done with cigarettes, or any other change. That’s the bottom line. Compared to other methods of changing habits and removing unwanted behaviors, these are super fast therapies.
If you’re ready for some personal change, we can do that! I do offer a free in office consultation to explain the unique collaboration of minds which is my work.
All the Best,
Connie

Greetings from Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP for a Happy New Year! Here’s wishing you all a healthy and happy 2014. Yay! And remember, if you’ve got some New Years Resolutions, hypnotherapy will turbo charge their success and accomplishment.
It’s a good time for change. Now. 2014–the year of your fabulous success!
Stop Smoking, Seattle! It’s good advice. It’s also a website: http://www.stopsmokingseattle.com/. I have several websites that I’ve created, and this site is about hypnosis for smoking cessation.
Here’s an advertising video for my site:
On my many websites, I like to highlight the different things hypnosis is good for. Short answer: pretty much EVERYTHING. Michael likes to say: “If the brain is involved, hypnosis helps.” Yes.
http://www.stopsmokingseattle.com has lots of good information about studies on hypnotic success with quit smoking. Kind of like a battle royale, and hypnosis wins! Hypnosis is more effective than other stop smoking tools: nicotine gum, the patch, drugs, herbal remedies, acupuncture, and so on. I also talk about all the chemicals that are in cigarettes, and how your body has the capacity to heal itself from the effects of cigarettes and the time frames involved. It’s interesting stuff.
And primary, of course, on my hypnosis for stop smoking website, is the PROOF. Seattle area people I’ve helped using hypnotherapy and NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) who agreed to let me share their success stories. Actually, there are many providers of hypnosis in Seattle, with varying skill sets. My advice: Go for quality! Go for proven success. That’s me and Michael and our passion: Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP. It’s the best in Seattle hypnotherapy services.
If you yourself are interested in dumping tobacco use, or know someone who is, direct them to my website. More people should know that skilled hypnosis is the best tool to stop smoking, and stay stopped.
Quit Smoking with Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP — John did!
Lots of people want to know: Does hypnosis work? Do the positive changes last? Yes, and yes! Here is a another testimonial of success for Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP.
John M. of Seattle came into my office in July and had a single session of Neuro-Linguistic Hypnotherapy ™. At that time, he felt so sure he was done with smoking, he literally crushed the cigarettes he had. Smooshed the pack in his fist. That was his last pack. We documented it:
Now, three months later, I have John’s follow up report. It’s good news:
“Hi Connie,
It was definitely a pleasure meeting you! Since our meeting, I have not had any cravings nor desires to smoke! I feel much better and my blood pressure is down significantly. I also have been eating healthier and started to work out!
I definitely will send any friends over to you. Thank you for helping me!”
— John M. of Seattle, Washington
Yes, it lasts. The positive changes last. For John, it’s three months now–WITHOUT CRAVINGS. When you upgrade a program (new way of thinking and feeling) in your mind, it stays upgraded. And your behaviors in the world change. There’s no going back to cigarettes for John. Why would he? He’s a nonsmoker!! That’s how he sees himself, and that’s who he is. A healthy person taking care of himself. Yay, John!
If you need to dump the tobacco habit, well, it’s so much easier than you think.
I love the changing of the seasons. They’re all good. But summer, well, summer is special.
Warmth. Essense of carefree (a remnant from childhood, perhaps), Rainier cherries, watermelon, long days, sunshine, beaches, camping, play. Joy. That’s summer.
Today is the first day of summer. My calendar says so! 🙂 Enjoy yours!
I like demarcations! Places where one thing ends and another begins. You have now left King County and are entering Snohomish County. You have now graduated from sophomore to junior in college. You have now left springtime and it’s “officially” summer. Lots of these change-markings are arbitrary.
You know what’s really cool? We also get to set our own demarcations! Today is…. and fill in the blank with the newness of your choice. I help people move in this way. We’ve moving! Not with boxes and vans, but into new behaviors and identities. Yesterday, I helped some people to become nonsmokers. Smoking ends, healthy begins. GREAT demarcation.
Happy summer, and here’s to creating some of your own “official” and happy changes.
A friend of mine created this video for me. I love it! He’s punching and kicking the heck out of that bag. If there’s something, some old habit you’d like to kick out of your life (SMOKING, for example), well, it’s easier than that and only takes one muscle. Your brain muscle. If you only knew how strong that is.
Hypnosis works for smoking cessation. I know it does. I have a drawer full of cigarettes from clients who quit smoking. I use them for testing purposes. When you’re done with a session or sessions with Seattle’s best hypnosis (us), I offer you cigarettes. And guess, what? You don’t want them.
Happy Spring! It’s here. Time for fresh, healthy new life. On the trees, in the gardens, and in us. It’s time.
I got a short and sweet testimonial yesterday from two clients I helped with smoking cessation: “Proud to say B. and I are still non-smokers!!! Next month makes 8 months. Feels great!” – D. A., Roslyn, WA
This is a terrific time of year. I was born in Seattle and of course I love it. The fresh green everywhere, the blues (sky and water) and the bright blossoms. Everything is so FRESH and healthy-feeling right now. Add yourself to the list anytime you want.
Quitting smoking on your own can be a bit of a challenge. There’s help available. Hypnosis is a powerful and efficient and FAST way to quit. And quit for good.

Yes, New Years is looming, which for me personally is a wonderful thing. My wedding anniversary, 26 years now, happens in a few weeks. I like fresh, I like new. We’re moving to a new home in January as well. (My office stays in Bellevue!) All this is good. I’m resolving that 2012 should be my best year ever! Do you likewise!
I love to hear good news! (Who doesn’t?) More good news in my email in box. Another happy, successful client. Yay! I’m sharing the success of Dawn Abourezk, of Seattle, WA.
Dawn says:
Hello there Connie. This Thursday will mark 6 weeks of NO SMOKING!! Yahoo!! The journey so far has been interesting for me…I have had a few dreams where I did light up and was very dissappointed at myself. Nice to wake up and realize “I’m good.” 🙂
Good job, Dawn! Dear readers of “The Hypnotizer,” how would you like your smoking habit to be a bad dream from which you get to wake up? That’s right. It’s do-able. With skilled hypnosis and NLP. Find out more about my smoking cessation services here:
