Openly, I cursed their choking grip on me.  Inwardly, I was totally unwilling to do anything else but puff away. Your typical chain-smoker, wildly raving about kicking the habit—and not meaning one single word.

  It was a joke.  Unfortunately, the laugh was on me.  The grim warnings of the Surgeon General, The American Cancer Society, my worried Doctor and the clear statement on the side of every single pack, all went in one ear and out the other.  My tobacco addiction was like a runaway train, completely out of control and destined for disaster. Unstoppable!

Me give up smoking?  
Better, ask for my right arm!

 Every so often, I would make a good old college try at quitting cold turkey.  But, before you could say “Jiminy Cricket,” there I’d be. Frantically scrounging in the garbage for soggy butts. As usual, my good intentions went up in smoke. I was hooked—again.

  Who was I kidding? Smoking was an undeniable necessity  Super-important to my daily life.  How I enjoyed that first eye-opening drag in the morning—that satisfying end-of-the-meal lighting up—that nerve racking inhalation when things got hectic. Me give up all those irreplaceable pleasures?  Better, ask for my right arm!
  Cancer or no cancer, doctor or no doctor, I loved smoking much too much to ever stop. But one day, I discovered a secret that turned my red-hot passion into red-hot hate-to-smoke.  A secret that set me free in just one session, flat.  I saw a hypnotherapist named Alan Barsky. And the result…not a single cigarette in years!

Freed me in 1 session.
Not a single cigarette in years

  My smoking is past history. Gone without pills, will power or climbing the walls.  Gone, without gaining an extra ounce.  Matter of fact, my wife says that I even lost  a couple of pounds.  And I never felt better.

 Running into an old buddy brought back memories of those “didn’t want to quit” days.  This two-pack-a-dayer had tried everything, but still couldn’t stop.  He begged me tell him my “secret”.

  I told him to see Alan Barsky, the best local Hypnotherapist to quit smoking. Right in Mill Valley.
 Just call 415-389-9444, like I did. Hypnotherapy is the number one most successful method for people like us to stop smoking. After it did the trick for my buddy, he sent Alan some of his still smoking friends.

  Hypnotherapy uses the power of Hypnosis, but only to help you succeed in your life.  There is no funny business, no quacking like a duck, or barking like a dog.  Just like putting in new software into your computer, the hypnotherapist puts in a positive program into your thinking, where there is no room for something as damaging as another cigarette.

  If you are willing to make a phone call to satisfy your curiosity, talk with Alan and ask him all the questions you may have about hypnosis, hypnotherapy, how it works, and how it can work for you.

  I know what it is like to have that compelling urge to light up. And what it is like to be able to smilingly pass it by without pangs of yearning.

  What’s more. I know that you can honestly and truly stop smoking for keeps in one session flat, even if it’s the last thing in the world you’d rather do. 

  Just go to Alan Barsky, Certified Hypnotherapist. Yeah, it’s as easy as that.  Just do it. I can’t tell you how it works. It just does. With no strings attached.

  And, with Alan’s “No Way Out” program, if you ever start smoking again, merely come back for a second session. Or even a third, at no charge. And that promise is good for a lifetime guarantee.

  OK. I know exactly what is running through your mind. Even with this medical doctor endorsed, increasingly popular method…you’re still looking for a way to get out of calling Alan for  your session. You can’t fool me. It’s not the money. You’ll pocket 100 times your investment in cigarette savings alone. The bottom line is: you don’t really want to quit—and you’ll do anything to avoid it.

  But just this once, listen to that little voice inside your head. Just this once, give in to your common sense and give my secret a “look.”  Watch it automatically work for you in the only way that counts. 

    Permanently no smoking!”
                                                                    Thank You Alan,  
                                                                                 Bill Costello,

  1. Quit Smoking in steps

Thank you so much I could not have done it with out your help.  The welbutrin helped me quit the last 4 months as well. Smoking cessation is not easy. But you are a wise counselor.

     I was having cravings daily, but you helped me get to through the tough stuff and that was instrumental in my quitting.  From 30 a day to 4 a day, who would have ever thought?  It was the first step to my long drawn out process of quitting.

    I no longer say I'm trying to quit, or I'm in the process of quitting.  Even better, I don't say I'm down to only 4 a day from 30.  Today I don't smoke.  I am a non smoker.

            Thank you again! You helped me find the courage to become a non smoker.”

  1. Not Smoking for two years, now want to lose weight

Alan, I'd like to see you again, but this time to set up sessions to focus on my weight  To remind you, I'm the gal you successfully got to quit smoking 2 years ago but now have issues with eating/weight.  I see clearly, it’s not from giving up smoking. Greek, engaged, family pressures, etc.  When can I make an appointment?”

  1. R.A.,  Attorney


  1. So, the past days have been interesting:

each and every time i feel like smoking (which is less and less) I realize my body was confused and it does not want me to smoke, just breathe deeply. So, that is what I do. It is working so far - I am also making a clear cut differential in my head smoking = death and a future not fulfilled and NOT smoking = my destiny and all the good I can still do in this incarnation. Also, if I smoke, I imagine that ...- ....would really rather not...if I had to...., so its strong motivation. Smoking = hell. Who wants to go there? For those who do, I now have no understanding of them. So, my non smoking journey has begun. I will keep you posted and thank you again for sharing of yourself when really it was just a job. “


V.A., hairstylist, Larkspur

Does Smoking Relieves Heartburn, or cause it?

Contrary to the popular belief about a calming smoke, cigarette smoking may actually contribute to heartburn. Nicotine can relax the lower esophageal sphincter, a muscle between the esophagus and stomach, allowing the acidic contents of the stomach to splash back (reflux) into the esophagus. This increased acid reflux is the basis of heartburn.

FUN FACT:  Did you know, that if you want to mail a pack of cigarettes to someone, by law you must tell the Post Office that tobacco is enclosed, since it is considered a hazardous substance?
