Everyone deserves a happy family. But the habit of smoking makes us to be unhappy. You love your dear ones more than anyone in the world whether he may be brother/husband, but how can you get him to stop smoking? Even you have a thought of quitting smoking, but fail to quit just like 19 out of 20 quitters do. There is one thing special in 1 out of 20. Let us consider his habits. First of all make a list of things concerned with the habit of smoking.
1. Why do you want to quit smoking? Are you really ready to quit smoking? Just for the sake of the near and dear ones do not make decisions.
2. Pick a good time to quit smoking. Don’t be fast to avoid smoking especially under times of stress and strain.
3. Destroy all your cigarettes. Throw out ashtrays and lighters from your home and car so that no part of you home appeals you to smoke.
4. Drink Lots of water and fluids to help wash out out the nicotine and other poisons from your body. Change your normal routine with simple exercises. Even a jog could be helpful.
5. Avoid alcohol, sugar, and coffee as these tend to stimulate the desire to smoke. Taking an oral substitute like cinnamon sticks, chewing gum could be a great aid in quitting smoking.
6. Have a balanced diet avoiding fatty foods. Eat slowly and wait a bit between bites. Consider having a cup of mint tea or a peppermint candy after dinner instead of smoking.
7. Every time you want to smoke, inhale the deepest lung-full of air and exhale very slowly something like a yoga technique to get relaxation.
8. Tell co-workers, friends, and family members that you are going to quit smoking and ask for their support. Ask them not to smoke in your presence.
9. Affirm yourself that you are a nonsmoker and be prepared for difficult situations and side effects like headache and depressions.
10. Be prepared to resist the desire for “just one cigarette” otherwise you will again opt smoking instead of quitting.
Visualize yourself as a non-smoker. The sooner you start, the sooner you’ll quit and the more LIFE and money you will save and the sooner you'll stop paying people to kill you!
