“Triggers are not chains. They’re cues—and you can rewrite what they mean.”
In Episode 3 of Breathe Free: The Smoking Release Activation, Dr. Gary Danko guides you through the world of subconscious smoking triggers and how hypnosis helps you break their influence. This session reveals that the urge to smoke isn’t caused by nicotine—it’s driven by environmental and emotional cues that live in your subconscious mind.
From your morning coffee to your drive home, or even a stressful phone call—these triggers operate silently, pulling you back into the smoking loop before you even realize it. But here’s the good news: those cues can be reconditioned. You can learn to interrupt the pattern. And with smoking triggers hypnosis, you can rewrite the meaning of those moments, permanently.
Dr. Danko uses storytelling, metaphor, and clinical insight to show how your subconscious has been trained to link certain feelings and environments with cigarettes. You’ll learn why these responses aren’t your fault—and why they’re not set in stone. Through hypnosis, you can teach your brain new associations that support freedom instead of dependency.
This episode also includes a reflection task: start observing your smoking triggers today. Note the emotions, the timing, the habits. Then go to drgarydanko.com/community and share your biggest discovery. By identifying the pattern, you begin dissolving it.
This powerful episode shifts your mindset from shame to awareness—from being reactive to becoming conscious.
You are not your triggers. You are the one who can choose a new response. And when you use smoking triggers hypnosis, you don’t fight the urge—you transform it.
If you’ve ever felt like cigarettes control you, this episode will show you that you were never powerless—you just hadn’t spoken the mind’s language yet.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
