Hypnotist ready to kick cigarette butt
Date:1/16/2008

What if I told you that throughout this release there are hypnotic suggestions about why you should cover this story and make it the top one? Would you be able to pick out the suggestions? Or would they work without you even knowing it and despite what else is going on in the news, you came to the realization that you absolutely, must cover this story? I guess theres no way to know unless you read on

If you want to quit, read this book and follow the program, says Alderson. Its different from everything else out there. Since the 80s, there hasnt been anything new in psychology treatments for quitting smoking. Ive got something new and this book offers the best and most current research available on quitting smoking combining hypnotherapy, behaviour therapy and pharmacotherapy treatments.

Dedicated to his father and a close friend who both died from lung cancer, the book begins by telling a fictional story about Freedom, an adolescent boy who is bullied by a gang. Determined to fight them, he learns Aikido (Japanese martial art) and defeats them. His victory turns into an invitation to join the gang and smoking a cigarette is one of the rites of passage. Freedom becomes addicted to cigarettes and the rest of the story chronicles the ups and downs of Freedoms life and how with the help of his Sensei (marital arts teacher) and psychologist, learns to quit.

Throughout Freedoms story, Alderson makes hypnotic suggestions about quitting smoking but the reader wont always know when a suggestion is being made. I hope people are intrigued by this alone and read the book, says Alderson. And the story itself is engaging a
