Paul Keane testimonial April 2023

Having been a moderate smoker for many years, I had come to the point where I finally wanted to rid myself of the habit. I had previously given up for periods of between a few months and two years, but I always seemed to drift back into it, believing that I had it under control. These periods of abstinence convinced me that I could give up for good.In August 2004, when I had slipped back into the old habit, I was recommended to Florence Mackay, an NLP practitioner in Forest Row, who I was advised, would be able to help me with giving up through hypnosis, and having somewhat of a fascination with this overall process, I duly made an appointment.

The session was about an hour long. During the first half hour Florence questioned me about my smoking habit, how long, how many, previous attempts to give up etc, as well as my willingness to finally kick the habit now, at the age of 51. During the second half of the session, the ‘hypnosis’ took place. This was a pleasant experience, and I seemed to be aware of a lot of what was going on, but having said that, the time seemed to pass very quickly. When I came back from being under, Florence explained what she had done, and that if I needed further sessions, these would be included in the fee I had already paid. To be honest, I didn’t think it had worked. I walked back to my car, in which I had some cigarettes. My natural reaction would have been to have one, but something in my brain said NO... you don’t smoke or need to smoke. Wow! It had worked instantly and continues to work to this day, without any follow up sessions. So, 19 years later, I still have no desire to smoke.

It is such a great feeling not to be dependent on this drug and saving the money I once spent on the habit. I did put on a little weight in the months immediately after my treatment, but my system soon balanced out and I returned to my previous weight. I have since recounted my experiences to many of my friends and would wholeheartedly recommend Florence to anybody wanting to quit.
