I found this article which made interesting reading. It seems that the use of hypnosis to stop smoking are more successful if your man. Maybe people are some things a bit 'differently than women - after all, people can be "motivated by a visual" than women (especially as a woman!)
Men were more likely than women for the success of using hypnosis to quit smoking, says Ohio State University report. The researchers reviewed 18 studies of hypnosis-based smoking cessation and found that this approach was successful for 30 percent of men compared to 23 percent of women. But the researchers said this difference may be more to do with sex than with hypnosis itself.
"I suspect that gender differences are not unique to hypnosis, but are associated with the difficulties of women in an attempt to stop smoking, in general," Joseph Green, associate professor of psychology, said in a prepared statement . He presented the findings July 30 at the annual meeting of the American Psychological Association in Honolulu.
Green said none of the studies examined why hypnosis seemed more effective for men than women. He said that if a smoker - male or female - is a strong motivation to quit smoking, hypnosis should be as effective for them as any other method to stop smoking. But he said people should avoid hypnosis treatments that guarantee success with a single session.
Hypnosis to quit smoking often requires multiple sessions, and must be combined with other approaches, such as cognitive-behavioral strategies, proper nutrition, exercise and avoiding smoking causes, he said.
