Looking For Effective Stop Smoking Advice? Try The TipsBelow
Your family has asked that you try to quit smoking. It's also something your doctor
recommends. Even your insurance provider is willing to give you discounts if you quit. Why
are you still puffing away, then? It's time to buckle down and do it, so read on for tips to help
you accomplish your goal.
A lot of people have discovered that having a journal could aid you in quitting smoking.
People often smoke in order to calm down and relax their nerves. However, pouring your
thoughts and emotions into a journal instead, is a much healthier way to release stress and
anxiety. A diary also has the added benefit of being free!
Make "NOPE, not one puff, ever" your mantra. It's easy to convince yourself during the heat
of the moment that one cigarette won't hurt anything, but it can undo days, weeks, months, or
years of hard work and dedication. Think about how damaging having just one cigarette
could be before you ever even have the craving.
Need A Push To Quit Smoking? Try These Strategies When you decide to quit smoking, be
sure to tell your family and friends. When you share this information with those closest to
you, they can help you remain focused on quitting. The help of these people can keep you
focused on your plan to quit smoking.
Replace your cigarette with another object you can hold with your hand and mouth. Maybe
you would be comfortable holding a toothpick in your mouth to combat the oral fixation. Gum,
Tic-Tacs, and other candy can also help you avoid cigarettes. Avoid using food, because you
could end up gaining weight that you don't want to gain.
Get in shape. Exercise is a great way to help to clear out your lungs, build your air capacity
and boost blood flow. Regular exercise will also ensure that you stave off any potential
weight gain. Exercise produces endorphins, which do not replace nicotine highs, but do ease
the withdrawal symptoms.
Eat with good sense. Quitting cigarettes and junk food in conjunction is a recipe for failure.
However, eat balanced meals as much as possible. Smoking effects the taste of fresh fruits,
fresh vegetables and some dairy products. If you eat these items when you do not smoke,
you will be doing a huge favor to your health, and it will help you stay away from those
harmful cigarettes.
Dedicate a specific container to hold all funds that would ave gone to purchasing cigarettes.
After you have stopped smoking for a year, the money can be used to reward yourself for
your efforts. The cost of cigarettes is so high that you might even get a micro-vacation!
Write out your top five list of reasons for quitting smoking. When you feel like giving up, state
your reasons aloud, over and over, to help the craving pass. This helps you take your focus
off of smoking, and instead you are able to focus on other important things to you.
It's hard to quit because nicotine is so addictive. Stopping is difficult for many, both
emotionally and physically. You can get rid of some of that burden by using what you learned
in the article above. With the use of these good tips, coupled with your own desire for
success, you can finally quit smoking for good.
