To help people who believe this is the right time for them to quit smoking, the American Cancer Society’s quit-smoking program, Freshstart, is being offered at no charge on Thursdays, March 1, 8, 15, 22 and 29, from 5-6:30 p.m. at Waldo County General Hospital. The classes will be in the new green-roofed building, across the street from the hospital, in the second-floor conference room.
Three sessions will be devoted to learning self-hypnosis with Veronica Kupferman, certified consulting hypnotist. She will talk about what hypnosis is, the myths about hypnosis, and a simple, three-step method to induce self-hypnosis that can be used to immediately to assist with smoking cessation.
Participants will also learn how to create powerful affirmations that help people achieve their goals. Self-hypnosis may be used to relieve stress, overcome fears and unwanted habits, and increase self-esteem and self-confidence — and that is just the beginning.
This program is free and addresses the variety of reasons people smoke: physical addiction, habit and psychological dependency. Participants will be asked to fill out an evaluation and participate in follow-up calls after completing the program.
For more information or to register for these free classes, call 930-2650 and leave your name and telephone number. Space constraints limit the number of participants to 12.
The classes are sponsored by Healthy Waldo County and Waldo County General Hospital.
