Hi! Scott……it’s been nearly TWO years since I underwent hypnotherapy for a smoking habit. STILL a non-smoker! Yeah! Thank you! Joyce 2-13-12
Hi Scott! I wanted to let you know that I am doing well. Today is my 6th day of being a natural non-smoker!I owe you a huge debt of gratitude… I am just so happy! And thankful! You have such a natural ability; everything was handled in just the right way and with a caring attitude. I appreciated your careful choice of words when explaining the practice, and during the session [very skillful]; and I felt the environment was very conducive… Artfully creative, but also very safe. Being hypnotized was a wonderful, relaxing peaceful experience. For me, it was a reminder of some deep meditation states, and with the tape [I love it!] I can go there every day. [Thank you Scott, for that; I had forgotten.] I will let as many people as possible know about you. Respectfully, Joyce
Scott, I’d really like to thank you for how much you have helped myself and 2 of my family members. I visited you 8 months ago & have remained nicotine free since. My cousin’s celebrate 1 year, and another for 15 months. My journey was relatively trouble free after visiting you. I had smoked for 34 years, since my early ‘teens. I could not have made it without you. Thank you again, for giving me a life free from smoking. AJ
Hello again Scott, Well today is my one year anniversary of being a natural non-smoker. (I see I am first on your list of testimonials! How cool!) So I have officially made it through all my triggers to smoke for the year. While I haven’t listened to my CD’s since the first month, the information is always there in my head and heart, and I’m sure I’ll carry it with me for my lifetime. My life has changed forever and I wanted you to know I truly thank you for that, because having tried to quit at least 20 times before meeting you were obviously unsuccessful. Another huge concern of mine was weight gain, as I’m sure it is with everyone who considers quitting smoking. I gained a whopping 5 pounds in the first 2 or so months and have maintained ever since. So I believe weight gain does not have to be an issue when quitting smoking.Last but not least, my cousin who referred me to you now has 1 year and almost 4 months, and I referred my cousin who now has 9 months! So what a blessing you have been to the three of us! I will definitely continue to refer people to you because I know how you make people successful. All the best to you Scott and Thanks a million times over… Kim
Hi Scott! The non-smoking is going fabulously. I haven’t had/wanted/craved/needed/thought about smoking since seeing you a couple weeks ago. I went to the bar last weekend with a couple of friends, and as they were smoking they kept asking me, “Are you sure this doesn’t bother you?” It was as if I’d never smoked before. It wasn’t’t tempting at all. I’m also losing weight fairly quickly. I feel great, I can breathe and smell and taste things again. It’s wonderful! Thank you so much for all of your help. I can’t tell you how happy I am.
Thank you again Scott!

Scott,
I just returned from my six week stay in Ireland. It was incredible! I had the best time and learned so much about myself, including what I’m capable of…I haven’t smoked since before I saw you!Camp an a smoker. I knew if I could survive Europe without a cigarette then I’m not a smoker. Thanks to you I can say that. You really helped me. I really appreciate what you did. Thank you. I’ve decided to go further with my health, so I’ve enrolled in ‘Boot Camp an exercise program with a personal trainer that’s going to kick my ass (hopefully)! And I’m also starting mixed martial arts training. Once I proved to myself I could quit smoking, I decided to challenge myself more and see how far I can go. Wish me luck! I’d like to stay in touch with you and possibly come for another session at some point for relaxation/anti-anxiety. I’ll keep you updated on stuff. Hope all is well.
Thanks again, Carrol
Scott,
I am truly amazed that I have hardly thought about smoking at all and when I do it lasts for a few seconds and then dissipates. I remember you suggesting to me during our session that it was going to feel like I’ve never smoked at all and that’s almost what it’s been like. I know that hypnosis doesn’t work for everyone, but I certainly feel it has worked for me. I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve tried to quit in the past and I have always felt like a caged animal, especially for the first 3 days and this time I’ve felt very little anxiety. I keep reminding myself that I am a non smoker now and listening to your CD everyday helps to reinforce everything. I’ll keep you posted on my continued success.

Hi Scott…
Thanks for asking… yes ! I am a non-smoker! I am at 30-something days [over one month] and very happy.
Some memories from the session that have helped me a lot [recently] were:
1) If you add up the total suffering for one day [from desiring a cigarette], then it would equal only ‘X’ minutes. And that was true. The desire comes and goes. It might hit strongly, but only lasts a few seconds. So less than 1 minute suffering in a day versus not smoking!
2) Everyone has stress. Other people do not use cigarettes to deal with everyday stress. You don’t have to either.
3) Though friends and family will be happy for you… “some may not….” [I was really shocked and surprised that my most difficult times were after dealings with my own family or friends.] Very interesting that they also might have secondary gain in my being a smoker. I understood previously that we each have a psychological ‘place’ in the family, and that mine had to be partly influenced by my smoking. Now that is all changing.
Thank you again Scott! I will do whatever I can to let people know that this therapy works! M.
Scott I just wanted to contact you and say that after my treatment I have not wanted a cigarette once. The techniques you gave me for dealing with the urges have been a great help. Thank you. Again this has truly changed my life. J.
One whole year without smoking, something I never thought I could do. Thanks, Scott Duvall, for making it so easy! The real difference, thanks to hypnosis, is not just going a year without smoking, it’s going a year without WANTING to smoke! Feeling great.

Sports Performance Testimonial
I had two hypnosis sessions with Scott Duvall to work on the mental aspect of my tennis game. I have a big passion for tennis and am a competitive recreational player. Often my mind got in the way and prevented me from playing my best. I knew I could be much better if I was mentally tougher. After incorporating the hypnosis transformation into my mental blueprint, I have turned my tennis game around and am playing at my full potential. My mindset is rock solid on the tennis court, and I am a force to be reckoned with. I have an amazing win record going as I have won something like 10 out of my last 12 matches! Thanks Scott! J Wood

Wow what great energy, I felt like a different person walking out the door than I did coming in. You really are a wonderful being and I felt a sense of calm and trust with you. Thank you, D.J.
