For example, let's say you frequent the bar with some friends a few nights a week. You probably have a drink and a few smokes to go along with that. Well right now you need to stay out of that bar. Your mind and body will quickly revert back to their old ways and you will be highly tempted to welcome back your old friend- Mr. Cigarette. 2.

In addition, it will help you with the oral fixation by having a bottle of water nearby. 3. Change your mental outlook. --- You are no longer a smoker and you need to keep reminding yourself of that. A few suggestions for this is to have a rubber band on your wrist to snap every time you think about smoking. Another idea is too try to work your way into a community of non-smokers. This may help with the mental aspect of not smoking and will help you change your lifestyle. 4. Get more exercise. --- A great way to help you quit smoking is to start an exercise regime. There are several benefits to doing this. First, you will take on a new activity that will get your mind off of smoking. Second, you will be bettering your health and thus will help you quit smoking by not wanting to ruin all the hard work you put in at the gym or whatever activity you take up. Third, if you really like the new activity, you won't want to have a difficulty in breathing affect the way, or how much, you participate in the new activity. 5. Don't go it alone. --- The best way to make sure you stick with your plan to stop smoking is to tell someone else what your goals are. You are a lo more likely to stick with your goals if you know you have to answer to someone else. Or, at least you have to let this person know that you had a set back and had a cigarette.
