Collection: Overcoming Addictions
Aid your recovery from addictions with hypnotherapy
An addiction, says celebrity hypnotherapist Marisa Peer, is “anything that moves you away from a bad feeling and towards a good feeling”. Rated by the UK media as ‘Britain’s Best Therapist’ and one of its ‘Top 250 Doctors’, Marisa’s incredible career has seen her working with rockstars and royalty, dishing out expert advice in magazines and on TV shows – including Celebrity Fit Club and I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here!
Marisa has not just read about celebrities trips to rehab like most of us; she has walked alongside them and empowered them on their journeys in this field. Her hypnotherapy sessions, courses and books have helped thousands of everyday people overcome daily dependence and unhealthy habits, whether this is an addiction to cigarettes or an obsession with online shopping.
Are your addictions controlling you? The vicious cycle of addiction and how to control them
Famous people might have the spotlight shone on their challenges, but many of us have compulsions that threaten to ruin our relationships, jobs and lives. You may have personal experience of the vicious cycle of dependence.
Are you battling an obsession or addiction: hiding it from your partner and children, while it costs you sleep and ever-growing sums of money? Are you compulsively overeating, drinking too much alcohol, gambling, or using social media excessively?
In the cycle of addiction, we make promises to ourselves that today is the day we start the new and improved version of us. Then something happens to trigger us – weare stressed, or we argue with our partner, or weare invited to after-work drinks and feel self-conscious as the only one not drinking – so we have just one drink …
Then we relapse. One wine becomes two bottles. Then we wake up, sweating and remorseful, vowing today is the day we stop drinking and start the sober new version of us …
How addiction hypnosis treatments stop the vicious cycle
With decades of experience, Marisa Peer understands the addiction cycle and how hypnotherapy can help with addiction. She also understands how to support clients in their pursuit to overcome these addictions.
We seek out substances and experiences that make us feel temporarily “good” because, as Marisa says, this is your mind doing what it is programmed to do: avoid pain and move towards pleasure. When you are putting other parts of your life at jeopardy – when a habit is becoming harmful – hypnotherapy is here to stop the cycle.
What Marisa Peer’s trail-blazing hypnosis treatment teaches you is how to retrain your mind and engage in a new mental dialogue that teaches you new behaviour.
If you are experiencing the complex challenge of dependence, hypnotherapy could help you overcome your addiction. Marisa’s range of audio books are customised to allow you to focus on the area that is most relevant to your needs.
Her methods are fast, effective and available online, meaning they aren’t just accessible any time anywhere, they also keep your privacy intact. You don’t need to check into an expensive rehab centre; you can make the changes you need to make in the privacy of your own home.
Hope for the future
People experiencing addictions and obsessions sometimes say they feel helpless; like they are drowning without a lifeline. Hypnotherapy empowers them to take control of their mind and with it their actions. If your mind has become programmed to do the same thing over and over again – light up a cigarette, pump the handle on a poker machine – you can teach it new behaviour.
There is hope for the future. Hope for new behaviour. Explore the options you have open to you and start transforming your life now.
