"Both my wife Rachel and I would like to thank you as we stopped smoking with the help of the Hypnotictracks stop smoking hypnotherapy download. We were both heavy smokers and decided this year to break the habit.
We had previously gone down the traditional route of patches and gum, but this never worked and it was time to try something different. What appealed to us about the Hypnotictracks stop smoking download was having the facility whereby we could listen in the privacy of our own home and in our own time. Plus having online back up.
We both lead hectic schedules and taking time out for hypnotherapy sessions might have been difficult.
We therefore consider Hypnotictracks to be fantastic value for the money, given the package that is provided and wish you and the team every success in the future.
We can thoroughly recommend the hypnotictracks hypnotherapy stop smoking download to anyone who is serious about packing up smoking."

"....Of course, I possibly have some mental programming too, having used the Hypnotic Tracks Stop Smoking MP3. I will be honest and say that I find the MP3 so relaxing, that I have usually drifted off to sleep, so am not sure whether it has subliminally implanted something or not. I do know that I have found it somewhat easier to try and stop on this occasion."

"I had previously downloaded several hypnotictracks hypnotherapy downloads. I have found them to be very effective. I had decided it was time to become a non smoker and therefore time to download a hypnotictracks hypnotherapy stop smoking download. As before with these downloads I have found them to be highly effective and the smoking habit was broken. I have recommended hypnotictracks hypnotherapy downloads to everybody I come across that wants to pack up smoking."

"Hello. Just tried your stop smoking download. I have smoked since starting aged 23 (silly huh?) and am now 35.
I have been trying to quit for the last three years on and off, managing a couple of weeks or so at a time but always coming back to the cigs and always with a struggle to keep from thinking about smoking or trying to keep cravings under control...not for the nicoteen but for the ritual of rolling a cigarette and smoking it.
I had been thinking of trying hypnotherapy but the cost has put me off as did booking appointments etc so when I found your web site I thought...why not? I downloaded the track and listened to it straight away this morning (did giggle to myself a couple of times...well its a funny thing to do when you think about it!). I wasn't sure it had worked at first, I just felt incredibly relaxed afterwards (very nice in its own right!). However, since then I have not wanted a cigarette and even when I did have a very brief thought once I took a deep breath and it was gone! I'ts the first time I feel not as if I have stopped, but that I am a non-smoker!! I seem to have forgotten somehow that I did smoke.
I will listen to the stop smoking download a few more times to make sure but if this carries on I cannot imagine starting again. Now I just have to get my boyfriend to listen to it!!! So thankyou and wish me luck! All best wishes."
Tracey Smith, Bristol
"For years I tried to quit smoking, but never quite made it. The craving never really went away, and after a few drinks in the pub is was almost inevitable I would wake up with a bad taste in my mouth, a sore throat, and guilt and off we went again... until the next time I gave up. That was until I tried a hypnotic tracks stop smoking download, and to say I was sceptical was an understatement...
I used the stop smoking download feeling exactly the same as I had when I started, having been totally conscious through the whole process. I was convinced nothing had changed, until later that night, at a party I realized I had not had a single craving and more to the point the idea of smoking a cigarette positively repulsed me.
That was 6 months ago, I'm pleased to say to this day after just one session with the stop smoking hypnotic track download, I've never craved a cigarette, I've never been tempted, and I remain repulsed by cigarette smoke (if only the smokers knew how bad they smell, but don't tell them).
I went from total sceptic to convert, if you are serious about giving up smoking I cannot recommend the hypnotictracks stop smoking hypnotherapy download highly enough - it works.
Please note as a website design company Irun is now an active recruiter of affiliates to hypnotictracks. This we feel is the most effective way to endorse the product."

"I had tried for years to stop smoking never quite made it. My boyfriend John recommended hypnotictracks as he had used one of the tracks to help him relax. Basically it worked.
When I told my friends I was using hypnosis to help me stop smoking they all laughed and pretended to dangle pendulums in front of me.
Anyway I phoned Sam before downloading and he told me to 'forget about the stage nonsense', the tracks will do it for me providing I meant business about giving up. He also told me the track would come with his own personal guarantee and to feel free to ask questions at any time.
So I downloaded and after listening to it stopped smoking. Sam advised me to listen to it a few more times to be on the safe side, and now smoking just does not come into my thoughts at all.
Meanwhile I see these around me who were quick to criticise, on patches, chewing gum, and thinking about smoking all day long. Best of luck to them.
If anyone had told me a few weeks ago I would be using the power of my mind to stop smoking I would have laughed at them."
