----- ----- Martin's Point Of View ----- -----
A full week had passed since Martin had last had an appointment with Hypnotherapist Dr. Nathan Lyle. Although he still could not quite remember what had happened in his last appointment with the Hypnotherapist there was no denying the fact that he had not smoked a single cigarette or cigar since the encounter -- however he ha started to crave a smoke the day of his meeting with Dr. Lyle. Martin thought that hopefully after having another meeting with his Hypnotherapist that his craving would go away like it had before.
Martin arrived at the building where Dr. Nathan Lyle's office was and made his way inside. Just as he had done the week earlier and the week before that he took a seat in the waiting room and looked over the room. He had arrived much closer to the time of his appointment this time and was only sitting for a short matter of minutes before the office door opened and the familiar faces of the husband and wife he had seen the last two visits came out. Just like both times before the Hypnotherapist chatted with them and walked them to the door. As Dr. Lyle turned around Martin stood up and they greeted each other with a handshake before heading into the office. Martin took his usual seat as did his Hypnotherapist.
"So -- Martin how have you been doing since our last session last week? Have you smoked at all? Had any cravings?" Hypnotherapist Dr. Nathan Lyle asked as he picked up his pad of note paper and a pen.
"Pretty well actually. I have barley had an urge to smoke anything -- but I did start getting a craving last night and this morning." Martin explained still a bit surprised and skeptical on the whole hypnosis concept.
"Well like I told you at our first meeting - the type of hypnosis and conditioning we are working with here isn't magic it takes time and hard work. I'm not surprised our work isn't over yet. We may have to keep trying for some time." Dr. Lyle said brushing a strand of his blonde hair out of his blue eyes.
Although Martin was still very skeptical about hypnosis he couldn't argue with what results he was aware of so far. He had in fact not craved a smoke for almost a whole week so maybe there was some truth to this hypno stuff like the doctor had said. Plus his other patients seemed to keep coming back as well so there must be something to all this.
"How about we get started then Martin -- lay back and close your eyes while I dim down the lights." Dr. Lyle said as he stood up and walked over to the switches to lower the brightness in the room.
Martin did as the doctor said and got comfortable in the couch like chair. The doctor went back to his seat after dimming the lighting and placed his notepad on a nearby table.
"Now what I need you to do is just listen to my voice. Let the calm and peace wash over your body mind and soul. Listen and understand nothing but me - " Dr. Nathan Lyle spoke softly as Martin began to enter a hypnosis educed trance like the week before.
Just like last time Martin came back out of his coma like hypnosis unable to remember anything feeling as if all he had done was take a long blink. He felt a bit groggy and fuzzy as he rubbed his eyes and say back up.
"Martin -- how do you feel?" the Hypnotherapist said to his patient.
"I feel a bit refreshed I think -- and my urge to smoke seems to have gone away" Martin replied impressed with the doctor's work.
