Hypnosis helps you move towards a state of relaxation, rather than becoming calm, and you focus on slowing down your breathing and conscious feelings. Hypnosis can help you relax while exercising, too. You are feeling powerless to resist the temptation to smoke, and that could lead to " relapse. " in most cases, hypnosis is the first step to this process. Relaxation is often achieved by deep breathing and visualization exercises. If a trained hypnotherapist is helping you, they may speak very softly and slowly to you. You begin to recognise reality, being aware of the world around you. If you seem to be lucid or drowsy, you're awake.
