As the year progresses, it鈥檚 not uncommon for people to fall off track from their new year鈥檚 resolutions. Quitting smoking is no exception to that rule. Unfortunately for many, breaking their life-long smoking habit is something that they believe may be impossible.
Lower Mainland hypnotist Scott (The Stop Smoking Guy) Christie wants to challenge their belief and help B.C. smokers to finally walk away from the power that cigarettes have had over them in his interactive seminars, coming to Vernon鈥檚 Village Green Hotel Feb. 17 and 91大黄鸭鈥檚 Ramada Hotel and Conference Centre Feb. 18.
鈥淢y Mom smoked three packs a day for over 30 years and the day that she made the decision to stop smoking brought joy to my heart,鈥 Christie said of his motivation to start the program. 鈥淭his decision changed our family鈥檚 life together, we just celebrated her 82nd birthday this past July. Watching her smoking related health problems disappear eliminated a great deal of stress from our family. I still remember the feeling I had when she took back control of her life, and I want all families in B.C. to have the opportunity to experience this feeling as well.鈥
As the owner and hypnotist at the Hypnosis Empowerment Centre in Surrey, B.C., Christie has developed unique strategies to help crack the stop smoking code and deliver a clear and new approach to helping people to give up their smoking habit.
Understanding and education of how the mind creates and holds onto unwanted behaviors like smoking habits and the power of belief are at the centre of Christie鈥檚 smoking cessation program, which utilizes self-imagery, hypnosis and the power of belief
Tickets to Christie鈥檚 seminars are $85 per seat. For more information, visit .
