- Instead of
smoking after meals, get up from the table. Brush your teeth or
go for a walk.
- If you always
smoke while driving, try something new: Listen to a new radio
station or your favorite music. Take a different route. Or take
the train or bus for a while, if you can.
- Stay away from
things that you connect with smoking. Do it today and for the
next few weeks. These may include:
- Watching
your favorite TV show
- Sitting in
your favorite chair
- Having a
drink before dinner
- Do things and go
places where smoking is not allowed. Keep this up until you're
sure that you can stay smoke-free.
- Remember, most
people don't smoke. Try to be near non-smokers if you must be
somewhere you'll be tempted to smoke, for example at a party or
in a bar.
