Group gives tips to stop smoking
The Foundation for a Smokefree America is a nonprofit charity dedicated to motivate youth to stay tobacco free, and to empower smokers to quit through school-based, educational, peer-teaching and physician-targeted programs.
If you have tried to quit smoking and failed before, take comfort in the fact that most smokers fail several times before quitting successfully.
• Start your new routine on a Monday when you have work and other weekly activities to distract you from smoking.
• Keep busy! Go to a movie, exercise, take long walks or go bike riding. Staying busy will help keep your mind off smoking and on more important things.
• Spend as much free time as you can where smoking isn't allowed. Some good places are malls, libraries, museums, theaters, department stores and places of worship.
