Are you looking to create a significant increase in disposable income?
Stop Smoking or Vaping in York or online — Improve Your Health and Keep More of Your Money
“Quitting smoking is one of the best things people who smoke can do to boost their income.” ASH (Action on Smoking and Health)
If you’ve been thinking about quitting smoking or vaping, it’s likely because of health concerns. But in the current financial climate, for many, it’s just as much about money.
A typical pack of 20 cigarettes in the UK now costs between £13-16
That is:
• 5 a day: ~£3.25 per day | £97.50 per month | £1,170+ per year
• 10 a day: ~£6.50 per day | £195 per month | £2,340+ per year
• 20 a day: ~£13 per day | £390 per month | £4,680+ per year
Even a 5-a-day habit amounts to more than ten thousand pounds in a decade.
And over a lifetime?
That could be:
– A holiday every year
– A significant contribution to your mortgage or rent
And vaping isn’t as cheap as many believe. Costs vary significantly depending on method used, but averages £5.50-15 per week, or £300-700+ per year depending on usage
Most people don’t realise how much they’re spending—until they stop.
And costs are set to rise again in October 2026 (Manchester Evening News and HM Revenue and Customs)
The question is—how much longer do you want to pay for a habit that's seriously undermining your bank balance and your health?
What could you spend that money on instead?
Many of my clients tell me that stopping was more natural and easier than they expected and that they wish they had done it sooner.
Because once the habit is gone, two things tend to happen quite quickly:
You feel the physical difference—and you see the financial one.
As a clinical hypnotherapist specialising in smoking, vaping, and unwanted habits, I use a structured and effective approach designed to help you change the pattern at its root, without relying on willpower alone. This is about changing your relationship with the habit, so you can move forward feeling in control and confident.
Why people choose hypnotherapy to quit:
• It helps you break the habit at its root
• You experience fewer cravings – very often none at all
• It reduces automatic behaviours
• You gain a sense of being back in control
• You notice financial savings almost immediately
It’s about regaining control—of your health, your mind, and your money.
Imagine breathing more easily, feeling healthier, and knowing you’re no longer spending hundreds—or even thousands—each year on something you no longer need.
You just need to be willing and ready to become free.
And the sooner you do, the sooner you get that money back in your pocket. Money that could be going towards your home, your family, or your future, for things that truly matter.
Quitting smoking or vaping is one of the most impactful decisions you can make—for both your wellbeing and your finances.
If you’re feeling the pressure of rising costs, this is one change that pays you back straight away.
Every week you continue smoking or vaping, more money disappears.
What would change if that stopped this month?
Make today the point where things begin to shift.
Stop smoking or vaping. Start saving.
Smoking / Vaping Cessation
How effective is it?
Extensive research by the University of Iowa and published in New Scientist Magazine (vol 136, issue 1845-31, October 1992) has shown that hypnosis is the most effective method of smoking cessation, rating it six times more effective than nicotine replacement patches and gum, and almost three times as effective as acupuncture.
Hypnosis works in much the same way to help you stop vaping.
Become a true non-smoker or non-vaper
(Not just a smoker or vaper who is courageously resisting cigarettes or vapes)
The information below applies equally to smoking and vaping since the cues and mechanisms of the habit are so similar.
Everyone knows someone who has quit smoking but still says they’d like one with a drink, or after a meal. And what a terrible place that is to be: having to deny yourself something you want all the time.
The ‘stopped smoker’ courageously resists having a cigarette, while the true non-smoker couldn’t think of anything worse than smoking.
That’s if they give it a thought at all.
My approach to smoking cessation hypnotherapy changes the subconscious mind of a smoker to an effortless non-smoker. I use the same approach with vaping.
Together, we address the psychological tricks that smoking or vaping addiction plays on you and free you from its grip.
Smoking or vaping cessation hypnosis with me will gently move your mind from its current addicted state to complete freedom from cigarettes or vapes. This works equally well whether you see me face to face in York or online.
You will no longer be controlled by the need to smoke or vape: no more planning your day so you can inhale those toxic fumes, no more running outside at work or at parties, no more worrying whether you have enough cigarettes left. No more stressing about what smoking or vaping is doing to your health.
And what would you like to do with all the money you save?

What happens when you stop smoking or vaping?
There has never been a better time to quit either smoking or vaping, with the economic situation tightening our purse strings and a smoking ban in public places. Most people are also better informed these days of the considerable dangers of smoking and vaping and the benefits of quitting.
In fact, think of it not as quitting but as winning, getting your life back.
Beating the habit without nicotine replacement therapy results in immediate health benefits, as you can see from this timeline:
Within 20 minutes of your last cigarette, your blood pressure and pulse return to normal
Within 12 hours, levels of oxygen and carbon monoxide in the blood return to normal
Within 72 hours, your bronchial tubes relax and you feel an increase in energy
After 72 hours, your body will test nicotine-free and the restlessness or anxiety typically associated with nicotine withdrawal will have peaked, meaning it all gets much easier after this
After 48 hours, your nerve endings begin to regenerate, meaning your sense of smell and taste increase
Within 1 month, your skin and hair look noticeably clearer and healthier
After 9 months, there is a 10% increase in lung function and your circulation is improved
A year after you stop, your risk of premature death through stroke or heart attack is reduced by 50
10 years after you stop, your risk of lung cancer drops to 50% of that of a smoker
The majority of these health benefits of freeing yourself also apply to stopping vaping.
Of course, there is also the powerful sense of achievement, the knowledge that you have increased your odds of living to see your grandchildren grow up, and you have more money in your bank account to spend on the things you really want.
There's so much to look forward to!
What does the smoking / vaping cessation programme involve?
2 sessions (the first lasting up to 2 hours, and the second lasting 60 minutes)
Stopping smoking or vaping does require some conscious effort, a belief that you can do it, and strong motivation. However, if you have all of these, I can help you, regardless of how many times you have tried to stop before, and no matter how much you vape or many cigarettes you smoke each day or when you began.
The Solution-Centred Hypnotherapy smoking / vaping cessation programme has been designed to help you overcome the fear of stopping and to teach you techniques for dealing with stress and trigger situations.
The overall aim is to break up the internal programming that caused smoking or vaping to become a habit, anchor powerful reminders of the positive benefits of a smoke-free lifestyle, work on blocks that have prevented you from stopping in the past and support you in becoming a permanent non-smoker.
The programme begins with a case study of your lifestyle and smoking or vaping habits and a chat about what it has been doing to your body and your mind, and how this can be reversed.
We will work together to build confidence, positive responses to stress, and to reprogramme your mind to view cigarettes and vapes differently and to consistently make healthy choices.
Included in the programme are support materials, a recording of the hypnosis part of each session for you to listen to regularly to reinforce the work we have done, and email and telephone support if required.
